They Might be Giants : Beardo 2006 tour
The best $21.00 I ever spent! I saw my all time favorite music group perform live in concert Friday night at the Orange Peel in Asheville, NC. I have been a TMBG fan since 1984, and finally got to see them in concert. It was absolutely FANTASTIC. This concert was the most fun I think I have ever had in my entire life. They played for 2 hours and did three encores! They played an even misture of their old stuff and their newer stuff-including 3 brand new songs. They Might be Giants truely are the greatest rock band ever! I got a new TMBG hat, t-sirt, and a big yellow foam finger too! If you have never seen TMBG live, go see them; it's a musical party for your ears! If you have never heard them, leave this sight now and do a google search for They Might Be Giants. Check out their podcast, download their flash player, streaming music clock radio. I hope they never quit making music.

RPN calculator scare.
My trusty HP 11C has been resurrected (and on ironically enough, on Easter weekend) Here's the whole story: when I dropped my 11C, the display quit working i.e. pressing keys did nothing. I replaced the batteries with unopened one year old, silver oxide 357 batteries--still nothing. Saturday night, I tore my computer room apart, looking for an 13 year old h48gx I used to own, but hadn't seen in over a year. After an hour or so, I found it, an was satisfied. On Monday, just on a whim, I bought new batteries to try in the 11c; I put them in, and it came back to life. I was sooooo happy. I have my 11c back!!!! and to top it all off, I just found out today that the 48gx has an 8 layer stack! I am VERY happy now. I just knew it was gone forever, but after 23 years it lives anew :-)

Doomed concert
Last friday, my brother-in-law and I went to see Coheed and Cambria in concert in Atlanta. We were stuck in traffic for over 2 hours, 100 miles north of the concert venue due to an 18-wheeler exploding on Interstate 85. We got to the concert just in time to see the last 4 minutes of Coheed and Cambria. We were under the impression that Coheed was the main act and that two groups that I had never heard of were the opening act. We were wrong. the first act Head Automatica, was a no show, Coheed was the second act, and the main act was Avenged Sevenfold.
I normally don't listen to music like this, but I do like Coheed (think Rush, Pink Floyd, and tragic epic science fiction combined with heavy metal thrown in for good measure). Aveneged Sevenfold was not anything to write home about. Based on the 4 minutes I got to hear live, I would travel again to see Coheed--as long as they are the main act.
