Looks like I’ll be there. Just two more days. Getting in my monthly dose of JT. Can’t blame a girl,right??
I turn 60 in June 13th….as good an excuse as I can come up with.
My husband and I will be there too. I am celebrating my 50th birthday next month and hope to have him autograph a special sign that a co-worker made for me.
Safe travels, Barb, and happy early 60th! Maybe we’ll see you there.
I’m trying to find a hotel in the area right now,for tomorrow night.I’ve never been there,trying to look at a map and figure it all out. Ones right there by the Civic Center are $169 a night. Not splurging this time,but don’t want to nap in the truck,either.Just excited to get my monthly dose.
I am actually HERE in Peoria now. Nothing going on at home,so figured I’d give myself tomorrow to wander around downtown before the concert.24 hrs to go,and I’ll be finding my seat…good times.
I got a cup of coffee and went for a 2 mile drive,across the river to the Civic Center. The rigs are unloading equipment, and a bus was pulled in to the basement garage area. Two more buses were down the road outside their hotel. James Taylor is in town!
So he started out with “Wandering”,and I knew it was going to be a great show.He also did “Only A Dream In Rio”, one of my top 10 favorites! Seems older age makes me pay more attention,because the words had such a strong meaning, more than ever. Like the line,”Time isn’t really real.”Heard him sing it so many times,but never thought that much about it until last night. It’s something we’ve created,and could just as easily take away.
Every song, I just sat there in amazement at how he can continue to have this beautiful,crisp voice,and acknowledge how perfect the band is,but still be humble. HE is a master at what he does.He deserves the best band,too. He said he was lucky to be signed to Apple.But he deserved it.
Outstanding time in Peoria, IL. Once again,the only time I have regrets is when I DON’T GO!!
I met Sherrie and Paula Hootman. Nice ladies!
