Not really. 25 years as a band is a long time...I should probably reserve the ancient tag for the Stones. And like the Stones, DM still puts on one hell of a live show. (Excluding the Super Bowl halftime debacle)

That wins the prize! That will be fantastic. You win lottery tix?


Alas, no. After 4 lotteries (at least), we are still ticketless. But we've been planning this since we got married in 2003, so we've cashed in the flyer miles and are going, tickets or not. I figure some will come available as we get closer to June as people that won lotteries how expensive those plane tickets to anywhere close to Germany are in June. I couldn't find anything less than $1000 to just about any major city in Europe. If not, we'll do the scalper route. And if not, then I hear all of the major cities are setting up giant screens in town squares with lots of beer flowing nearby. It's supposed to be very fan friendly.

Vegas in July for a bachelor party and to play in one of the World Series of Poker events.

Mexico in August for the wedding of said bachelor.

Close out the vacations with a trip to Europe in September - Ryder Cup in Ireland and then over to Munich, Germany for Oktoberfest (still in the planning stages with this one).

Where do you people get the money to do all of this?
The donkey's name is Kiki.

On a side note, anybody need a patent attorney?

Good, Bad...I'm the one with the gun.

I was wondering the same thing. I'm planning on going to Cozumel in June because the rates are cheaper there and tequila has some mystical effect on my wife. If you hear that I died in Cozumel... :D
