Most fun weekend

This has got to go down as one of the best weekends of 2006 for me, so far. It started on Friday night when I went to my very first Washington Nats game at RFK Stadium - and it was Game 1 of the series against the Yankees! Whoo- what a game! We had just under 45K people there that night. But I heard the record was broken and they had OVER 45K there the next day. So yeah, they lost that first game I saw in person. But it was still VERY cool to be there live and in person. Had GREAT seats right behind first base. Plus, a fight broke out between two Yankee fans behind us - yeah, those were kick-ass seats with action all around us!! And yes, the Yankee fans were there in numbers. It was almost like all of NYC traveled down to be there. I kept trying to out-yell the fans around me. Therefore, I lost my voice the next day. But hey, the Nats made up for it in Sat and Sun games, didn't they? Let's go NATS! Now they face Boston. Let's see how they do...

So early on Saturday morning, we got up and drove 4 hours down to Raleigh, NC to see this great band out of Ohio called Watershed. Here is their My Space page here if you want to check them out: http://www.myspace.com/watershedcentral
They are a great bunch of guys. Plus, I love them even more because their second set of the evening was ALL Cheap Trick covers - WHOOT!! I am trying to convince them to come to the DC area and play the IOTA. They said they would love to. I talked to their manager and he said they MIGHT be in the area around August opening up for the Clarkes. We shall see...

Got back into town around 4pm and just spent the rest of the day preparing for the week.

Now it's time for bed since I was out till 3am last night and 1am the previous night and drove 4 hours yesterday & today. ZZZZ. But believe me, it was worth it! all for the love of sports and ROCK & ROLL!! For those about to rock, we salute you.
