Mmmm....hand....Anyway speaking of shows, it's music season in my world. I just saw several great shows at Summerfest:
- Stevie Wonder (freakin' amazing)
- The Cougs (John Mellencamp...okay, that was pretty cheesy, but it was damn fun, and you know you know the words!)
- Polyphonic Spree (!!!!!!!!!!)
- Alabama 3 (or A3 ... the band that did the Sopranos theme song. Totally incredible live. Wish I could see them at a better venue. Also wish I'd realized the show started at 6 vs 6:30)
- Alejandro Escovedo (rockin)
- Thievery Corporation (a fun show, but for the 16-year-old drunk b****ches behind us)
