NEW YORK - New York City officials say Bon Jovi will play at a free concert in Central Park this summer.

The concert will be held July 12th.

The concert is billed as a prelude to the July 15th All-Star baseball game, which will highlight the final season at Yankee Stadium.

I'm running on four hours of sleep and a lingering high from the concert. Whoever decided you needed drugs and/or alcohol at a show obviously doesn't know how to use their energy, or something.

Or they just prefer a different buzz. (I like this buzz, thanks. Still feels good and no hangover. :) ).

Anyhow, amazingly awake and energetic. Annnnd, I'll probably crash when I get home, because the high has to wear off sometime, and we're also short a person I have to help cover for today. So possible over-time--definite OMG!MUST MOVE IT! involved at work today.

I would like to find out the name of the rhythm guitarist. :)

Also; that was an easy two pound weight loss. Yeah, I really did bounce around that much.

Miraculously, I have a voice. My throat is a little scratchy, but I'm not vocally crippled, and singing more today is actually helping. Thank you, years and years of choir and drama classes. :)

The expected aches and pains, including from the supposed back bruise, have not made themselves known just yet. I'm sure they will though, because of the bouncing, and, yes, slight headbanging I did.

Whut? I'm a child of the 80's, I'm gonna head-bang. *g*.

Anyhow, yes, I'm alive, woke up on time, am working, am awake, can talk, and am eating lunch.

Also: WHOOOOOO!

*cough*

Heh.

ETA:

Weird thing? My ears weren't ringing this morning (they were last night), and, get this, I'm having to listen to the player at a lower than normal volumn, because louder makes my ears hurt.

Lol, whut?

T-minus 20 minutes and counting :)

NOT EVERYONE IN AMERICA OWNS A FUCKING AMERICAN EXPRESS CARD YOU JACKASSES!!!!

GET OVER YOURSELVES--VISA WORKS JUST AS GOOD, YOU BASTARDS!

Well, that's it, I guess. No Bon Jovi for me.

Bastards.

Boss is being cool, and it'll be during my lunchtime anyway, so I'm a-gonna try for the presale tickets for Bon Jovi.

Also, looking at other US cities where they're already on sale, doesn't look too bad price-wise. I might even be able to afford a VIP package, which would be cool, and would satisfy the agreement I had with a co-worker about if one of us wins tickets, we'll give the spare to the other person (I'm going by myself, and the VIPs are sold in pairs). I mean, I didn't win them, but hey. Whatever. :)

Wish me luck come noon--the last tour sold out in ten minutes flat. O.o

ALSO! BONUS HAPPY!

Dad is coming here on the 14th as part of his yearly Xmas roadtrip to AZ. There will be fatherly goodness for five days! YAYS!

Damn, I get to see Dad twice in one year. Not only that, but within a few months of each other. I like this. MUCH better than five years of 'uh, I can't talk right now' over the phone.
