ooohh Sting, Simon and Garfunkel for starters, I'd probably want to go to them all :wah: What are the ticket prices like?

I am going to see Mika at the end of the month and possibly Paolo Nutini, not sure if my mate managed to book tickets or not.

Carlos always offers a nice variety and he keeps his prices low. Hes a working mans musician.

S&G would be good but Id be hard pressed to find someone that would want to go. Im a little Stinged out. He has some interesting music but his vocal range is so narrow it leaves me a little disappointed.

Sade has a new album which I dont care for at all. She went heavy on the electronics, still Id pay a small fortune to touch her dress.

Well, I said I'd go to S&G :wah:

Not really listened to sting for a few years now, nor Sade, but sounds like I'm not missing much then.

Sade sure is a stunning woman, I'm wondering of the males who I would like to touch, can't think of any at the moment, not singers anyway, can only think of a very fit tennis player...

Whoever is here this weekend would be on my list.

I have been trying to find the schedule to see who is here, when, so I can plan to be back here for a few of them.

I particularly would like to be here for Tom Petty, the Wailers, Santana, Jimmy Cliff, Taj Mahal, and Joan Baez.

ALOHA!!

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

So, do you have any schedule info on when any of these folks are going to be in the area, Nomad?

I am here for the week, and have to come back up a few times this summer.

Would like to schedule around some of the shows.

Google has not been much help.
