My husband, Chris, and I are having a very music oriented weekend.
It started earlier this evening. The music documentary “It Might Get Loud” with Jimmy Page, Jack Black and The Edge is on the Movie Network this evening and we taping it and watching it at the same time. It’s amazing! We both love all three of these masters of guitar.
I’m also taping Micheal Jackson’s “This is it”. We weren’t huge fans of Michael, but he was extremely talented and I think it will be interesting to see this last documentary of his.
Tomorrow we’ll be going to a Vintage Guitar Festival. I’m sure my husband will be drooling the whole time … even though most of his guitars are vintage pieces as well.
Then in the afternoon/ evening we’ll be going to some of the free or almost free events at the Toronto Jazz Festival.
You see what I mean … Music all weekend of one kind or another. Actually very different kinds of music really, but we enjoy it all.
Last weekend we went to the Beaches Rib Fest and they had live bands playing there too. We bought two full racks of ribs from two different vendors (and ate them from Saturday through to Monday), had a beer in the beer tent and watched a Funk band while we were there. It was fun.
On Sunday my husband is going out of town because his father is having an operation (gallbladder) on Monday so we also need to get some shopping done before he goes. I actually want to get out and take a look at laptops. The one I’m typing this post on it getting old and a little sluggish … so maybe I’ll take a peek and see what’s out there, maybe an Asus or something will fit the bill as a back up laptop.
I’ll bring my camera with me to the Vintage guitar and jazz festivals so expect a post or two with some pictures. Soon.
What are your plans for the weekend? Anything exciting?
Well ,I love the music weekend you had and are having. We will be working on the opening of the pool, as well as soon other things. I really want to go to a Play…Mary Poppings is playing at the Kennedy Center next week.
i love my music….But “Micheal Jackson’s “This is it”…Was quite a good watch i thought, and i think that would of been one hell of a concert he was planning on doing
Already seen “It might get loud” and it was very enjoyable movie for me. Not seen Michael Jackson documentary, maybe next evening…
still waiting for the videos.i bet the jazz gigs were pretty fun to attend:)
Well we didn’t end up going to any of the jazz events in town on Saturday. Perhaps you heard about the G20 riots that took place in downtown Toronto last Saturday? We didn’t want to get caught up in that. The Jazz fest is still on so maybe we’ll go to a few events this weekend.
I have seen “It might get loud†and it was great in my opinion
