FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE 35...

If there's one constant in my life, it's the music...and incredible music it was, last evening. Peter Frampton on tour for the 35th (35th!) anniversary of the Frampton Comes Alive album. A little less hair makes for no less of a "Guitar God", by any means! He's pretty much "aged to perfection".

Under the stars, on the sandy beach of the pool at Mandalay Bay - two (count em, TWO) solid hours of incredible guitar riffs...and the light drizzle of rain held off until the encore. For those that I called during the concert, it was SO much better in person -wished you were there!

So happy you had fun. I remember attending numerous rock concerts in Philly in the 1970's...
