I feel a little ripped off now - I was watching the weather and all for when I was out there, and I thought it was going to be stooopid cold with snow and stuff. I EVEN BROUGHT A SCARF! At long last, my chance to wear a scarf!

Alas, all the wacky cold stuff didn't happen until I left. Ah well.

Ugh. Why the hell did I move back to the east coast?!?

Darren, it was good seeing you at the guitar show. Sorry I didn't get to say goodbye, but I had to split and you guys had wondered off. Enjoy California!

Erik: It was good to see you again man. Looking forward to seeing you in 2009 in Oz!

John: Thanks again for your hospitality mate.

Friday night we travelled to Atlantic City to see Yes, featuring the legendary Chris Squire. Steve Howe was kinda spooky, with his frequently displayed "dramatic stare", however we had great seats and had the opportunity to hang out with the band after the show:-

Great music, great friends, what more could you ask for?

More later...gotta run to get my flight to LA......

I had the same reaction Tony AW MAN! I would have gotten on a plane for that one. Looks like everyone had a great time. No wonder everyone was always grinning from ear to ear in the pictures.. an absolute trip of a life time.
