Full Moon Fever was the soundtrack to my 1989.  I still lust after the ‘Free Fallin’ girl

Monty Hall

Monty didn’t get a raw deal [I foolishly always assumed that R.E.M. song was about him, but it was about Monty Clift!], as he was beloved by everyone.  Everyone loves choices and he gave everyone so many.  Sure, there could be a goat behind curtain #2, but sometimes a goat is better than nothing!  When I was a child, my mother adapted Let’s Make A Deal as a birthday party game in our basement for my friends.  Everyone loved to win, even if they got a goat… although my mom didn’t have any goats to give away.  Man, birthday parties in basements with games run by moms is so awesome.  Does that even happen anymore?  Anywho, Monty was the best!

It is without question (and without much explanation needed) that Tom Petty AND Steve Winwood are both rAWESOME in concert. Free Fallin’??? Running Down A Dream??? Cover of the Byrds’ So You Want to Be a Rock ‘n’ Roll Star??????????????? REFUGEE?????????? HIGHER LOVE???? BRING ME A HIGHER LOVE!!!!!!! But we aren’t going to waste any more space on their stellar performances. Cause I’m here to talk about the amazingness that is MSG’s Skybridge seating area. They like skybox seats, but ANYONE can buy em. And here’s what they got – less people, less lines, endless room – room to boogie, to get up and walk around, stretch ye legs, and to boogie. SO MUCH ROOM TO BOOGIE. Normal seats are for lamewads. Skybridge seats are for AWESOMEWADDDDS!!!!! Dude, once you go skybridge, you never go any other kind of bridge EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
