We Have a-ha!

I just got an e-mail that tickets for a third a-ha concert on May 8 have gone on sale. And I've got one! (It's increasingly looking like the promised Canadian dates aren't going to materialize. And hey, if I've got a job in the fall, I still might go see them in London, which was my original fallback plan.)

It's not quite Oslo. Then again, NYC in May is going to be a lot warmer than Oslo in December.

I always remember my Gran complaining about how we didn't have great lyrics like she'd had when she was a teenager... I'm delighted by the idea of being 70 and bitching to my grand-nephews and nieces about how they don't have great lyrics like we did... and then playing The Sex Pistols for them. *g*

Great minds think alike. I've always sworn if Ros ever gets into truly dire music, I'm going to throw The Sex Pistols at her.

We also have a video of Don holding her on our second day in China, and singing The Clash's Guns of Brixton as a lullaby. I'm not quite sure who I'm going to blackmail with that when she's older. *g*

I love The Clash and I was born in Brixton so... *g*

Yep, as they say in my Dad's family "I couldn't find an "H" with both hands" until I was about 12. My "terribly nice" girl's grammar school did it's best to try to fix the problem. *g*

Brixton! Cool.

I've only been once. We saw Orbital play a fab gig (one of their last) at the Brixton Academy.
