After My Gig Today...
April and I are off to Ravinia to catch some lawn, drink some wine, and listen to the unbridled power and musical majesty of Sir Tom Jones!
HELL YEAH!
We've been fortunate enough to see him perform three times before (twice in Vegas and once at the House of Blues in Chicago) and I can't wait for this one. It has been awhile since we've been able to see him. He's been a bit pricey whenever he's been around of late. However, lawn seats at Ravinia cost us about $30.00 total and since he's got a voice strong enough we could probably hear him from our balcony, that should be more than good enough for us.
I'm really hoping I can get there in time to get some good viewing & listening space though. His opening act is Etta James and I'm DYING to hear her. This should be one amazing night! Let's hope for low humidity, few mosquitoes, and no rain. OK, maybe enough rain to chase away the crowds, but not enough to ruin the evening. ;)

Sounds great, but was the speedo pic really necessary?

I've been a TJ fan for years and years and years ... yeah, he's been around that long. LOL!
Love Etta James, too.
Boy, you are a lucky guy. Let us know how it was!!

I am a big Etta James fan, you will enjoy the show!

If either one of you gets sick, I am more than willing to drive up to Chicago and accompany the other to the show.
(Man, if thinking an Etta James/Tom Jones double bill is so totally cool is wrong...I just don't wanna be right)
