Natisse said:

No I think thats Party in the Park Thats really all poppy stuff Not nearly as much fun! T's actually in a disused airfield! so basically a big field...not a park

onenitealone said:

That sounds great! I plan lots of nights out too and chilling!

Were all in here at once!

onenitealone said:

hey gorgeous I miss you we most definately need a catch up... asap

Natisse said:

I miss you too, hun! Sorry, it's been a really busy week/end. I've got to go now - just got a half-day - but I will try and call later. Otherwise, DEFINITELY this week.

Take care, both, and have a lovely day.

We ARE festival country here and I try to hit some of them , Saterday was the Allentown Art Festival and GooGooDolls' Robbie Takak's Music is Art Festival.The Allentown is one of the biggest and best on the US.
There is also free concerts almost every night of the week, the best are our Thursdays in the Square series, Saw BigBadVoodooDaddys, this week is BedouinSoundClash and Soullive, coming up: Jeff Martin, India Ayrie,and a whole lot of others. In September, I'm going to Toronto to see the BedouinSC with Damien Marley.
Other than that, I hope the weather is good for swimming, we have good beaches here.

shellyevon said:

Wow that sounds great! So many good acts and festivals

Where are you Shelly? Im jealous!

It's summer here now. The tourists have been arriving these past few weeks or so...

Besides hanging out on the beach for at least part of the day everyday (gets too hot, tell the truth), I'll be looking forward to finishing this master's thesis, and watching progress on my new house...

Meanwhile, people come hang out at the beach & it's cool & all.

Then leaving for vacation in the US in early September, and not coming back 'til mid October... it's a long vacation this year, albeit an unusual one.

Heiress said:

Sounds very chilled, and relaxing especially the long vacation!

Hope the house building goes well

susannah said:

we're like surfer dudes now... nothing can stress you when you live on the beach, I think. everything becomes "yeah, whatever."

susannah said:

I'm near Buffalo and Niagara Falls NY. It IS nice here,we get so many acts because we hae a great music and art community here. Also, we're close to Canada so the Canadian musicians come here to break into the US market. That's why Jeff Martin plays here all the time. I've seen him and the TeaParty at least 20 times and only had to pay for 3 or 4 of them. There's a little place here that ALL the big acts come and play, usually under false names where you can see amazing people for very little, I saw the Cure for $10 and there were only 100 people there. Joe Strummer used to love our town and come here and play every night for a week at a time for a $5 cover. The trick is there's NO advertising the big acts, so you usually find out who's playing when you get there.

shellyevon said:

thats really cool! Not a whole lot happens for free here, big acts really only come to tour "worldwide" But we do have our moments, like T in The Park!

Heiress said:

I plan to have that attitude one day! Lucky you!

susannah said:

I saw your T in the Park link, I would definitely love to go to that.

shellyevon said:

It is definitely worthwhile! You never really know whos gonna be on until late in the game, but its always worth it because theres always someone good on and theres just so many acts, youre bound to have a great time anyway!

cant wait!

susannah said:

I would probably explode trying to pick who to see, I love most of them.

I'm just looking forwards to summer. It can't come fast enough!

shellyevon said:

lots of running between stages and arguing with friends is to be expected!

I throwing a party in my backyard next Saturday for my and a friend's birthday. Well, sort of a cocktail hour(s) and then we're doing an Uptown pub crawl cause my apartment can only fit about 4 people in it.
And I think that's all I have planned for the summer.
There are always a million things to do in Mpls in the summer. There's a festival or block party of some kind every weekend.
I will also likely spend many hours walking around the lakes and many hours just relazing.

I've got about 15 weddings to go to. I've already attended 3 this spring.

senik said:

Wow thats a lot of weddings!!! Ive been to 3 weddings ever...

senik said:

Dont forget to go to your own

write it down somewhere: note to self:"must attend my wedding."

susannah said:

That's an exaggeration mate. It's more like 5 weddings, 2 engagements and 3 stag doo's.

senik said:

Even so! Thats still a lot!
