Too cranky for a real post but dont want to be a NaBloPoMo slacker
Ok For all of those of you strolling through from the randomizer or linking from the NaBloPoMo list, I'm doing a question of the day to answer via leaving a comment.
Question du Jour: What was your first concert? What was your most recent concert?
My first ever was U2, Joshua Tree tour. 10th row. It was mindblowing. My most recent I think was Rick Springfield about 3ish years ago. He still is a hottie and still rawks.
Im too cranky to write anything upbeat today so Im going to just go with a few lists.

- U2
- Sting
- The Alarm
- Rick Springfield
- B52's

- New Kids on the Block (ok my brain scares me that it thought of this one right after Aerosmith- apologies to Steve and the guys)
- Lisa Loeb

- I went to the BCN River Rave one year (95?) and there were oodles of artists there and I cant think of anyone but Cracker who I already mentioned
