Man was I stoked to buy my Journey tickets this year. I did not get a chance to see them at all two years ago and of course no tour last year, so this was going to add another chance to see them live and with Arnel who I think is a fantastic singer. So I hit EBay right after they came out so I could get a good seat at the Cincinnati Riverbend show on 9-7-08.
Well, wouldn’t you know it, life jumped up and bit me on the ass. My wife lost her job of 28yrs and she took a consultant job in Erie, PA. There is no way my wife can take off work since she has not been with the company long enough. So today, reluctantly I sold our second row, almost center (off to the left when looking at the stage) stage tickets for a loss even. Oh well, life really can throw a curveball at you.
I tried to talk my wife into trying for tickets to the Cleveland 9-6-08 show and that was a no go. So here I sit and sulk and just thought I’d pass along good wishes to all of you who get to go to either or those lucky enough get to go to both shows.
