Travis Smith: my resume, bio and photos back to the main blog page

I saw them in concert last night.

Here’s a picture: sting_concert.jpeg

It was a little different from the Prince concert I was at this summer.  For one thing, everyone sat politely for almost the whole show.

For another, one of the things Annie Lennox said that got the loudest cheer was “Who here is middle aged?!”

I went with my pal Jason, and had great seats—as far to the left as it was possible to sit.  We were, quite literally, back stage. wink

Jason has an extra ticket because his wife Noriko was stranded in Tokyo by a typhoon that grounded her airplane for two days.

So it’s true that when a butterfly flaps its wings in Asia.... you know the saying.

Posted Oct 27, and back dated because I felt I should.
