I think so-if you were working and couldn't get there good for you! :)

Well, I wasn't working, but it was a networking opportunity where i picked up a new client, so I think that counts.

Good to see you there, Roy.
When I was in high school discovering more bass I was a new Stanley Clarke fan. Duh. Obviously, I still am. My father was a Chick Corea fan, so we saw RTF at Vandy together. I think it was in '80 or '81. I didn't realize then what legendary artists I was seeing, not to mention the generational father/son/musician thing. Very fond memory of time with my father. With that same thing in mind, I made sure my 14 year old twins were with me for the Five Peace concert. They REALLY dug it. That put a smile on my face. Great family outing to see some legendary musicians! I think the list of people that I DIDN'T run into is shorter than the list of people I DID run into!
Hopefully more of that caliber to come regularly in Nashville.

Peace,
Steve

That was '83-great show in an acoustically "interesting" gymnasium. I saw Dizzy there in 1981 and remember him scolding the largely loud and inebriated audience there for the Rites of Spring concert.
