So Close!

Well, technically, we were 1-1 last night in our softball games. As I reported before, we won the first game by forfeit. The second game we lost 11-9. It was tied with a couple minutes left and I went to the other team and asked if they wanted to play one more inning to decide a winner. I hate tied games. They agreed and went on to score 2 runs while we were 3 up and 3 down. I'll tell you what, though. It sure was a better game! We had lost to this team 19-3 last Thursday and this time kept it very close. We were missing one of our better players, but we just put together a strong effort and came close to beating them. It's much more fun when it's a game instead of a blowout.

Well, it looks like I'm going to see Bret Michaels tomorrow night. I'm hoping to meet the guy for a second time. I'd like to get Songs Of Life autographed. That's my favorite CD by anyone in Poison or Poison for several years. it just rocks. I love the songs Menace To Society, Raine, and It's My Party. The whole CD is great, but those are my favorites.

I received an e-mail from Pete Evick, the guitarist from Evick (the band backing Bret on this tour). He actually remembers hanging out and visiting at Waterstock. He said they are getting better and tighter every night, so I'm very anxious to see them tomorrow night. Those guys in Evick are a blast to chat with so go see them!

It looks like Steph has found a way to the show and talked me into it. Between her and the e-mail from Pete, I've got to go now. Michelle, from my church softball team, is taking me over to Davenport for the show. She hasn't been to a concert since her mid-teens and it was Poison, so she is pretty stoked about going.

I will post a review of the show later this week and hopefully have some pictures, too.
