Nothing to do & lot of time not to do it in....

Hi Everybody !!

How is your bit of Internet Space treating you today ?!  Mine is wet & "so-so" .....I'm staying here in ye old Homestead for the rest of the day - it's too wet for me out side !!  Having said that... B & ME have just headed into town.... to explain.

Today, M... ME's boyfriend.... is having his graduation from Uni.  It's a little complicated, so stick with me.  M has been attending the town college & did an extra year, in order to get his degree.  So - today - the "big" Church in town is hosting his graduation ceremony.

While he & his folks are at that, ME is going to sneak into his home & leave some type of "congratulations" stuff in his room. The idea being, whenever he gets back, he'll find it as a bit of a surprise !!  I'm not sure if it will work - but, that's her plan anyways !!

I think B went along for the ride.... and to keep our Daughter company.  Life is good.... especially for me, as I'm here in the dry !! J is here to look after me, should I run into any problems - not that I'm expecting any !!

The music of the moment is 'The Pearlfishers' from Bizet...... one of my all time favourite bits of classical music !!  I'm transferring a bunch of tracks, from various classical Cd's over to just one disc.... to make it easier for me to play my favourites !! I hope they will all fit.... with some of them lasting 15 minutes or more, I'm struggling to pick which ones I want !!

Oh well.......

I'm not having a great day, for making things fit.... I found an old video of Page & Plant, which I guess I recorded about 1994.... it was only an hour long, but the DVD - as it turned out - only had 58 minutes of space.... so, it missed the last bit !!  Bummer - I'll have to do it again !!  That's an hour of my life wasted !!

Never mind....

Tomorrow, I have to attend a new (to me) clinic...... I think it's here in town, as opposed to the hospital.  I know B has told me where it actually is - but, I'm a little confused about it all !!  Nothing new there folks !!

Anyhoo - as I have to be there for 11 or 11.30... and it's going to take at least one hour to go thru' everything, it's unlikely I'll have time to write tomorrow !!  Not exactly knowing when I will be home & everything !!

So, I'm going to list a concert from September 13th 1971, as I don't have one from today..... It was recorded in Berkeley, California & was the first of 2 nights the band played there.... the tracks are:

CD 1

1) Immigrant Song
2) Heartbreaker
3) Since I've Been Loving You
4) Black Dog
5) Dazed & Confused
6) Stairway To Heaven
7) Celebration Day

CD 2

1) That's The Way
2) Going To California
3) What Is & What Should Never Be
4) Whole Lotta Love
5) Communication Breakdown

It's not a complete concert... 'Moby Dick' is missing from these Cd's - tho' it's on others I have from this show. Never mind - Led Zeppelin, live in California..... I'll call it 'Pt 1' as there is another concert to follow !!

As always, don't buy bootlegs - buy the official stuff instead !!

Talking of "Official Stuff" - if all goes well, tomorrow, there will be an announcement of the release of the Zeppelin "reunion" concert, which took place in December 2007 !!  It's been in the pipeline for sooooo long, I have know idea why it's taken until now to release the thing !!

So - check the news tomorrow & - I guess - there will be some dates for the release.  Hopefully there will be a 2 Cd set to go with it !!  That would be good.... but, we'll see what the wind blows out first !!

Right, my plans for today.... none really....... As I have this clinic thing tomorrow, I better get myself organised for that !!  There isn't much I can do.... but, maybe I'll have a think about what it all entails !! I do not like going to new places - especially when it comes to my
health !!

Anyhoo.... it's no biggy.... what can they do to me that they haven't done already !!  After 11 years of being/having all this junk... something "new" might be a nice change !!  I will no doubt let you know how things go !!

Anyways... I must be on my ways....  I've got nothing to do & I want to spend as much time as I can, not doing it .... until next time...

Bye Bye
