always traveling...

i had this big fat post all written up yesterday then i got sucked into doing actual work so i saved it and i was going to post it today but i'm just way too distracted. saw the AMAZING mr. wainwright last night.... *sigh*!!! probably the best show of his i've ever seen, save the UVA acoustic show and the front row show at wolf trap.

he had a big band with him, and just for london, invited a four piece horn/sax section to join him. needless to say, i was blown away. got a killer spot with vikki about 4 feet from the stage, just right of center. SIGH. and best part of all, GOING BACK TONIGHT!!!!

one year ago today i was on my way to NYC to see mr. damien rice. april 16th RULES! :)

i'm going to have to run now to get showered so i can get to the venue early to get a killer spot in line. :) so excited!

when he played 'oh what a world' last night, i had to smile... i don't think a song has ever hit me as so true to life as it did last night:

"Why am I always on a plane or a fast train?
Oh what a world my parents gave me,
Always travelin' ---- but not in love...
Still I think I'm doin' fine..."
~rufus wainwright

ps -i put some pics up from last nights show on my yahoo photo page but it's being weird and telling me there's an error so who knows?
