Rene~~~ OH MY GOSH I totally forgot about Pantara~ I saw them with Ozzy too. Little story about my Ozzy experience. I got tickets TWICE to see that man.. I would go to the concerts...see the openning show....and would be in the "pit". I have NO problem getting thru crowds, man handling people if I have to to get to where I need to be. I am pretty aggressive in the pit...Anyone whos been there knows you HAVE to be. Well. The first time I went to see him.....the openning band was done, and the set was changed....and the crowd was swelling. Ozzy came out on stage doing his little Ozzy walk and BAMB I was sicker than hell~ I pushed my way towards the back, the crowd was swirling. I positioned myself on a fence to hold myself up and some IDIOT comes up to me, OH BABY BABY YOU LOOK SO FINE, LEMME TAKE YOU HOME OR AT LEAST TO A HOTEL. I said Dude, you really need to get away from me, NOW~~~ He proceeded to rub my back and make lude comments, I said I AM F'ING TELLING YOU TO GET AWAY FROM ME NOOOW~ He didn't budge...sooo I threw up on his shoes! He left pretty quick after that. From the fence I dont know where I ended up...but I ended up passing out~ I came to to find my head resting in some guys lap! I looked up and said Hello? He said Oh my gosh are you okay? I said I dont know. He had his shirt off and there were like 4 or 5 military guys around us. The guy who I had my head in his lap, he said his name was Chachi. The reason this guy had his shirt off was because he was giving it to the military men to get ice to wipe down my head! This TOTAL stranger totally took care of me! His woman came around and was really really really pissed! He sat up and made sure I was okay and left! I didn't see Ozzy but for one second to come on stage! I woke up in time to see the fire works at the end of the show! The people I went to the show with had NO idea what happened to me. Then the second time he came around, the same thing happened, I was okay for the openning show....Ozzy came on in his way...and bamb! I got sick and had to leave the floor! I didnt pass out but I I have come to find out, I am claustrophobic! I couldn't tolerate being in the crowds of people and it would get me physically sick! Weird huh? But lemme tell you, I had a hell of a time convincing my mother that I wasn't drunk and I wasn't smoking anything! She pulled up to find me against another fence and sorta slumped on the floor....not the best way to find your baby!!! YIKES.

MOUSE...when I saw Prince and The Time, I had my cousin with me. She had NO IDEA who the Time was, who Moriss Day is, or who Jerome is... I wanted to throw her off the balcony~

I am so sorry to say that about Prince. I was numb. Prince was at the conception of both of our children. Sexy mother...... shakin that... shakin that...I guess he shook it too much. He got his money's worth out of his hips that he was born with. It is a sad day when the man that got you in the mood is having a hip replacement. My husband feels the same way. Well, not that Prince got him in the mood, but it worked for me (which always worked for him). I'd still go see him again, walker and all. I guess some men were just not made to jump and dance all over the stage in high heel boots.

Reminds me, I always loved Rick James. Sad to hear that the King of Funk had a major stroke. I think he has since died. Correct me if I'm wrong. How old are we? I'm going to go listen to the Cure, too.

I've done a little research on the net about Prince. He does need a hip replacement...but is apprehensive about surgery because he is a Jehova's Witness and can't receive blood. Purple Pain. Purple Pain.

Hey Beanie and Cindy! Cindy the Eagles, in my opinion, are perfect in concert. I have had the good fortune to have seen them about 10x! When I was single, one of my hobbies, was to fly to concerts (I fly for free). I've seen Dan Fogelberg and JT 20x also! I play guitar, so I guess you could say that I am a MUSIC LOVER!!! I met my wife at a Dan Fogelberg concert in Raleigh, North Carolina. She was seating behind me, and got to talking.....the rest is history! She has moved down Texas to make Fort Worth her new home. Together we had about 800 CDs.............although many were dublicates! LOL Music plays a big part in our lives!

Ah-ha! Ray, you are from DFW! That's sweet that you and DW met at a concert...I wasn't married when I went to 90% of the concerts I mentioned, but we do enjoy some shows...I like the alternative rock music, but just can't tolerate the unruly crowds like I once did....so, we miss those shows. We joke that now, the crowds at shows like Steely Dan stand and wave their canes and walkers, instead of lighting joints and holding lighters above their heads! LOL!

Oh THINJEN.....its a sad day....sad sad day! I have never seen a man do heals quite like Prince, and Im from New York~~.....All the Critics Love You in New York....Purple love and more, is all your there for, BUT DONT SHOW IT....Oh wow, that was OLD OLD OLD Prince~~~ Prince has the same affect on me, gets me in the mood....However my husband HATES him.....I had to "brave" his concerts alone. Well...The one in 86, I was with my parents...and we were in Nose Bleed at MSG. My mother is PETRIFIED of heights and birds...and well....he released doves in the beginning of the show, and where did they fly....TO THE RAFTERS~ She was hysterical! Then my father caught a contact high from all the pot smoke around us....and I got up to dance and my mother almost fainted!!!!! You should have seen all the cops escorting him into the place! It was unreal. He did Purple Rain for 20 minutes I think!!!! I have seen all his movies..Under The Cherry Moon was my favorite. Inspired me to learn to speak French....I didn't get too far with that. Sign O' The Times was on VH1 or some music channell, and my little son actually was getting into it~~ He was very impressed with the Kat Scatt.....I can do it, but it doesn't quite look the same as when she does it. I have had every album tht man ever made...from the naked horse back ride....to Musicology.....I LOVE HIM...what can I say. Hes got a quality all to himself~ No one can quite duplicate it. I think its them big Bambi like eyes~ whoa

Okay....ROBERT SMITH where are you~ On candy Stripe legs, the Spider man comes~~~~~~

AAAA I NEED SLEEP~~~~~

Down in front, Doll! I can't see the show with you dancing and singing in front of me like that!!! Your DH would do a good thing for himself to learn to like Prince, I think! Wink, wink!

It is great to talk with the music lovers! I have thoroughly enjoyed all lists and posts on this topic!

Porclndol,

How funny about your mom!! and dad for that matter. If you remain in your seat at a Prince concert (how could you keep from sliding out of your seat? tmi? ) ...than you just should have stayed at home. He is incredible. Yeah, it would serve your husband well to like Prince...at least fake it. My husband now has everything that he ever put out.

I forgot... I also went to see Jimmy Buffett. Great concert...I think.

I have only been to 2 concerts. But boy did I make them count. My first one was Ozzfest 2002 which included Drowning Pool, POD, System of a Down and Ozzy of course.

My second was Kid Rock & Aerosmith - what a hell of a concert that was!!!!!!! All of those bands were worth going to see again! I hope to become thinner and be able to fit into the seats so I can go to more of them!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
