I WON ! Woo Freakin' Hoo !!!

Sign in to disble this ad


As you Sirius Subscribers know, They've been running a contest to celebrate their 20 millionth subscriber. I myself have 3 accounts/radios. Anyway, contest winners win tickets to see Sir Paul himself @ the legendary Appollo Theater in Harlem. 1400 seats, that's it

I registered and............ I Won ! I Won ! I Won ! I Won !

It was his bassline in Lucy in the Sky that set me on my bass journey in the 1st place. I'm sorry if I'm rubbing it in, but this is just so friggin' cool. This might just be my coolest concert experience...ever !

I came home to find this email in my inbox............

Nah. You gotta go. I remember seeing his show on one of the HD channels and I don't have a lot of patience for watching musicians on TV for some reason, but I sat through and watched his whole show. It was really good. No bs just a great band jamming some great tunes with great musicians.

Screw that,...I'd rather have the experience of seeing one of my influences in an intimate setting (that's all my influences ever play) than have money. Memories last longer than cash/material things, and memories can't be taken away (unless you hit your head really hard).
