313th New Thing - Listened to DMB Live at Wrigley Field

Denver Public Library has audio CDs that you can borrow. Last time I was there at the Virginia Village branch, they had some Dave Matthews Band CDs. I was a big fan back in college but don't have all the CDs. I think I saw them live in concert about 4 times on the east coast. I borrowed DMB's Live at Wrigley Field 2 disc set. DMB is an American rock band that was formed in Charlottesville VA in 1991. Lyrical themes focus on topics ranging from love, sex, the enjoyment and appreciation of life, to ending racism, and political and anti-war statements. The founding members were singer-songwriter and South African guitarist Dave Matthews, bassist Stefan Lessard, drummer/backing vocalist Carter Beauford, and saxophonist LeRoi Moore (died August 2008). Boyd Tinsley was added to the band as a violinist soon after the band was formed. The band has won 1 Grammy Award and was awarded the NAACP Chairman's Award. Live at Wrigley Field occurred September 17th and 18th 2010 as DMB closed out its summer tour at the historic Chicago ball park. One of my favorite live concert songs is Two Step which they played at Wrigley. I'm sure it was an amazing show. I would love to see DMB again, especially at Red Rocks in CO.

47th New Thing - Watched Laverne & Shirley

I watched a classic sitcom today from the 70s, Laverne & Shirley . The show aired on ABC from January 26, 1976, to May 10, 1983 and starred Penny Marshall as Laverne De Fazio and Cindy Williams as Shirley Feeney. They were roommates who worked in a fictitious Milwaukee brewery called "Shotz Brewery". The show was a spin-off from Happy Days, as the two lead characters were originally introduced on that series as acquaintances of Fonzie. I watched Season 7, Episode 22, "Perfidy in Blue" originally aired on May 11, 1982. This episode started out with Shirley looking for Laverne's favorite blue purse that she borrowed and lost. Laverne asks where it is because she would like to use it on her date. Shirley lies and says she hasn't seen it. Shirley then watches TV and daydreams that she is in the TV show and married. Laverne is having an affair with Shirley's husband and Laverne tries to poison Shirley. Shirley pretends she is dead. Shirley wakes up and ...
