Standing behind the merch area at Sonar, Baltimore, MD. Thomas is playing “The Flat Earth.” I have seen more than 50 Thomas Dolby concerts. Oh, that it were true for Duran Duran!
I’m ready to go home. It’s been an intense tour, only a month long, but 27 days and 24 gigs is extremely difficult. When I get home, it’s not even really “home,” but direct to the coast for the holidays with my parents. I will finally really returnĀ home on the 26th or 27th, more than a month after I left. Kitties. Bed. DLJ.
New Years. We are planning to go to see Pink Martini at the Schnitz. This is what we did last year as well, and it’s a great way to end one year and start the next one.
I will miss tour life, but I am eager to get home to my real life, loves and days in Oregon. But with me I will have new friends. I am certain I will stay in touch with Hurdy Gurdy Ben, and perhaps even BT. One or two friends out of a bus crammed with 12 souls…works for me!
We have a new driver tonight, as our old one had previous holiday plans. He was a tad grumpy with us, but a REALLY amazing driver. You are trusting your driver with your life, as much as he nagged us, I will miss him as a driver, familiar with his ways of moving and trusting in his ability.
3 more nights on the bus. 4 more nights away from DLJ.

Hope DLJ doesn’t mind being last in the line behind the cats and bed!!!! I’m sure you will have a wonderful Christmas and that absence really will make the heart grew fonder.
Travel safe

Thanks, Wend! Of all three, DLJ is the one I see first! =)
Why doesn’t your boy hang out on Yahoo anymore? I want to chat with both of you!
Happy Solstice!

You do realise I now have this image of you all on the tour bus like those scenes from “Almost Famous”…
