I'd been to Coachella, so a music festival not in the desert seemed like a breeze. Never got to go though, and I'm ok with that. My best friend and I thought we were going to get to go in 2006 when my uncle let us come with him to Germany for the World Cup but to our dismay there was no Glastonbury that year. <br /><br />I think I heard an xx song that I liked once... <br /><br />I liked all the band references in your book by the way. So many great bands in the 80s. Too bad I was in 2nd grade and listening to New Kids on the Block and Paula Abdul...When I do get out to shows now everyone there is ten years older than me. It might make me feel young but it just reminds me of my aching back and need to sit down : ) Except when I saw Interpol a couple years ago, that was mostly college kids.<br /><br />lol @ "wrinkled energy"Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07064893477629124444noreply@blogger.com
