Hotel Cafe pic


Nice place to watch but bad place to take pictures from.

My new friend who travels to Europe to see The Who!

Attic Fest LA Two


Before the Who concerts, I traveled to LA to visit two dear friends of mine who I had met in La Jolla at Pete Townshend's benefit concert for the Playhouse in La Jolla in 2001. I suppose this is where my Amzaing Journey began.


Tom and Diane have two wonderful children and I loved spending time with them and thier children.


I enjoyed the weekend tremendously despite the horroibly long travel days.


While in LA I took in the Attic Jam at the Hotel Cafe. Terrible issue with ticket scalping occurred; but I was more focussed on meeting some new blogger friends who got tickets from me at face value and some great friends who I shared cheeseburges with at five AM.


I didn't eat any burgers quite that late...at least by local time....but did manage to get an In and Out burger, a Tommy's Burger and a Fat Burger in.


Three final Who concerts

Just got back from three Who concerts on the East coast. I got to make some new friends and see some old ones and go on a journey with a special one.

Band played the same set list, which of course gets challenging, if you go to more than a show or two. The boys played well; but I'd love to see them tap more of the forty years of music available.

I got a chance to see Pete sign a bunch of stuff for some competition winners and bumped into him and his entourage on an elevator on another night.

I will miss the shows and look forward to The Who returning to the US in 2008 or 2009.

Of course, I will keep my eye out for the Atticfest of summer 2008 and any Attic Jams that Pete and Rachel put together.
