Tally ho!

In a mere thirty minutes "I'll Be on My Way".

Squeeeee! and also yikes! I am starting to get a bit of a nervous tummy. I mean, hello, THIRD ROW! In all likelihood Ringo will look right at us! I keep feeling as though we should've made a sign to hold up but I couldn't think of what to put on one that didn't sound completely naff.

I hope he sings Yellow Submarine!

I hope he sings With a Little Help From my Friends!

I hope he sings Never WIthout You!

I wonder if there's any chance of him singing Act Naturally?

We're off! We're off!

La-De-Da

GUESS who I am going to see on Monday night?

RINGO!

And GUESS where I am sitting?

THIRD ROW, BABY!!!

When I first heard Ringo was touring with his All-Starr Band again I looked up the dates and he wasn't scheduled to come anywhere near here. Then I kept forgetting to check and see if any cities had been added. It just occurred to me a few days ago to check and, lo and behold, he's coming to Dallas -- on the 3rd!

A frantic search of eBay turned up two third-row tickets with a low starting bid. The price did go up a little but they were still extremely reasonable. Madalyn is going to go with me. We'll head down Monday afternoon and stay over since the concert won't be over till late.

I am so excited! I'm not sure what to expect, having never seen Ringo before. And I can't believe we will be sitting in the third row. Unreal. Madalyn was excited when I told her but I'm not sure if she'll really grasp what she's seeing or whether she'll mentally lump him in with the impersonators she's seen.

I so wish I'd gotten a chance to see John and George, as well. I'm so pleased I get to see Ringo, though, and that I get to take Madalyn! I only hope that Paul tours again so she can see him too.
