I used to bring binoculars to rock show; while the band was playing away, I'd be focused on stuff going on behind them, in the shadows :DOwlladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12989152304836466124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1361240553573022287.post-92225186824008179092013-02-25T21:28:25.576-05:002013-02-25T21:28:25.576-05:00Hugs, sweetie!

You obviously know a lot about music. :-) <br />"The thunder reverberated in his gut and made his head ring, and it was glorious." This is exactly how I feel when I listen to hard rock and metal. Glorious indeed!<br /><br />(P.S.
