Black Friday 2010

No, this post is not about fighting through crowds to get some crappy bargain.

Five years ago, I was introduced to a Pink Floyd tribute band named The Machine.  Every Black Friday they do a show at the Keswick theater.  It's become a sort of tradition.

I missed seeing them earlier this year so I got tickets for this show right as they went on sale.  The seats were only a short distance from the stage.  You read correctly, I said seats.  I did buy two.  At the time, I did not have anyone particular in mind but I left the option open.

The band plays all different eras of Floyd.  I've come to appreciate much more of the music after seeing The Machine over the years.  I've never seen Floyd in any incarnation so I'm glad this band is around.

My friend Handygirl was gracious enough to attend with me.  I owed her for giving me a place to hideout when I didn't want to be in my house.  This was her chance to get away from being a single mom for a night.  We both enjoyed the show but not as much as the crazy woman at the end of our row.  She REALLY enjoyed it.  I think she had some outside assistance.  I look forward to next year's show.
