We've Got Tonight

This will either make me cool, or really uncool (I don't even think that is a word but oh well) depending on who you are but I cannot tell you how giddy I have been all day since I read this morning that Bob announced he will be touring again starting in March. 

I grew up listening to Bob.  My Dad has always loved him and he passed that love on to me.  I always remember singing to him as we sat around our camp fires at Lake Leelanau.  When Brad and I talk about our "desert island" albums, Bob Seger's Greatest Hits is one of two albums that we both agree on in our all time top ten albums.

I was lucky enough to get to see him the last time he toured in 2006 at the Palace with all of the Jaskolskis.  The showed surpassed all of my expectations and I went into the concert with high expectations.  I fell more in love with Bob and the Silver Bullet Band that night. 

I'm in such suspense of where in Michigan they will play.  And WHEN?!  I know that once the word is out, and tickets go on sale, I will have to act fast!  I just hope and pray it is a day that works out!  In honor of this monumental announcement, I rehabed like a machine to Bob's Greatest Hits today.  Nothing like doing flies, clams, superwomans, and wall tilts to "Against the Wind," "Like a Rock," and "Travelin' Man."

One more thing...I hope Bob wears his sweatbands like last time. 


Not the best quality, but it works. 


"I was living to run and running to live
Never worried about paying or even how much I owed
Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time
Breaking all of the rules that would bend
I began to find myself searching
Searching for shelter again and again..."
