Duxford Girl

My heart just wasn't in it this year. Frankly, if it hadn't been for Evil Scientist's foot firmly placed on my behind I doubt very much if I would have gone at all.

In spite of being rather sad all weekend, I managed to increase my music collection by 12 CDs and one LP. Here are just a few places to look for some of the great music I heard and picked up this past weekend:


The place to go to get ready for next Year:

Blue Rodeo closed with Lost Together. It's one of the few BR songs I don't listen to very much (not because I don't like it). Lost together would be nice...simply lost is hard.
