Reunions are like Onions... 'Rock & Roll is 1/2 musicianship & 1/2 P.T. Barnum.' That's a line I heard or read somwhere a long time ago. Indeed, a band like The Rolling Stones (in concert) put on a very 'circus-like' show. Stone's shows have an almost 'carnival-like' atmosphere to them. (Incidently The 'Freak Show' are actually the fans.) Which leads me to... Sting has decided to reuite The Police - the band that put him on the map. I read an article on MSNBC that said "the only way Sting can be cool again is to reunite The Police." That made me laugh out loud 'cause it's so true! To boot, Van Halen is going back out on the road with David Lee Roth (circus ring-master supreme) after 20 years. That should be quite entertaining to watch unfold. Reunions are like onions 'cause the more layers you peel, the more tears you'll shed. P.T. Barnum is looking down (or quite possibly up) with a smile on his face....

Hi Ed, I'm very much looking forward to the Who's concert here in Rotterdam. I'm hoping that will be more entertaining than any circus!

Hi Ed,

How are you doing??? I would love to see The Police in concert, but I think they are not coming to Spain...it's a pity...but The Who will, and I'm soooo glad, haha.

Love,

Hi Ed, thanks for dropping by again, and for your kind words about my humble offerings. I'm looking forward to hearing some more of Dream secret's music as I really enjoy your songs - they are so full of energy and riffs with a difference! Love Val xx

Hi Ed-
How are you?
I confess I don't think I have visited that often...so I thought I'd say hi!
I would LOVE to see the Police...we'll see how much tix are and if they come to San Diego..

I was so saddened to read your comment about your dad on Pete's blog. How horrific. Did your dad get an infection from the amputation? Did he ever get proper medical attention?
So sad...and we know that many people suffered much worse atrocities.

Well, I hope you are well.
Take care,
Suexx

Hi Ed,
How are you doing? I know it's been a while since I've dropped by, but here's some news, I finally saw The Who!!!!! Now that's a group that has had a successful reunion!
It seems like a lot of bands are reuniting, one other one being Rage Against the Machine.

You can read about the Who concert I went to in my blog, check it out!

Thanks for your visit to my blog Ed. Don't worry about your long absences. I won't forget you ;-)

Am looking forward to hearing the fruits of all this productivity though, and it's good to know you are happy with life !
