Concerts!

Going to a couple of concerts this year. The Counting Crows in a few weeks and The Pretty Reckless in November.

The Crows are playing at the Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison. We have only been there once before and that was to see the Counting Crows.

 

 

Adam Duritz had to break up a fight in the front row. He stopped the concert and told the lames to mellow out. At the end of the show, he told the crowd that they would return. Glad that he kept his word.

Here is a pic of the theatre.

The theater is within the Red Rocks Regional Park. In addition to concerts, they use the theater for Sunday morning yoga work outs. You won’t find me there anytime soon for that.

Did I mention that there are a shit load of stairs there? You have to walk a ton of steps to get in then another boat load to get to your seat. We will be in row 17 center for the upcoming show.

The Pretty Reckless will be playing at the Ogden Theatre in Denver. We saw their concert on television station called Paddilia. They were really good. Soon after we downloaded their album entitled Going to Hell. There music is heavy and they have a good beat.

The lead singer, Taylor Momsen was Cindy Lou Who (aka the “Hoo Girl”) in the live action movie How the Grinch Stole Christmas with Jim Carry.

We were able to get VIP Tickets to the show. We get a signed poster, bandana, t-shirt etc. I doubt we will meet the band. Would be cool if we did.

Jordan Day 1

 It's been almost three years since we had payed for our trip to Jordan and Israel.  THREE FUCKING YEARS! We finally went and had a great time.   The trip lasted almost a month and we started our adventure in Amman, Jordan.  We arrived a day early so we could acclimate to the time change (nine hour difference).   We had purchased some Briggs and Riley high end luggage in hopes to carry them on the plane due to all of the recent horror stories of lost and or delayed baggage.  No such luck!  We were forced to check our bags at the gate in Denver.  If we had known our bags would have to be checked, we would have brought a lot more clothes and a much bigger suitcase.  We only brought six days of clothes (with an extra abundance of underwear and socks).   The planes were on time and we arrived in Amman a bit tired and eager to get going.   Our first hotel was the House Boutique Hotel which was really comfortable.  The hotel had a ro...

Barr Lake, Colorado (AKA New Lens Test)

What's one to do when you buy a new lens (discounted $300 by the way)?  Thats right, go shoot some birds at one of the many Colorado State Parks. Lucky for us, Barr Lake is just a few minute drive for us. We got up at 5am thinking that we would roll out of bed and hit the road.  Well, that didn't happen.  We got on the road at 6am and arrived a few minutes later. Our new lenses added an additional 3lbs to our backpacks and along with the tripod and water bottles it was a wonder we could walk at all. Our goal was to go out to the Gazebo.  Michelle thought it was a short walk (with a 15lb backpack in tow) but it was about 1 1/2 miles.  Normally, this would be about 30 minute walk but a ton of birds everywhere it took us about an hour or so to reach our destination. How big are our lenses?

Back From Morocco

I guess I forgot to tell you where we went for our three week vacation…. Morocco! Great trip! Met some new friends and basically toured the Moroccan countryside by bus, horse and buggy, 4x4’s and camel. We stayed at eleven different hotels and spent two nights in the Sahara desert (the Milky Way was awesome). Anyway, here is a link to the pictures that we took. Yes, Michelle and I have separate smug mug accounts for picture posting: Erich’s SmugMug site: https://erichphoto.smugmug.com/International-Travel/Morocco/   Michelle’s SmugMug site: https://michellephoto.smugmug.com/Morocco/ you can see a video slide show as well (the pictures are the same) on my youtube site: https://youtu.be/_fXuiJeJ1cU enjoy
