Location: New Orleans | HEART is touring, guys and gals! They haven't posted all of the dates yet but you can check for updates at heart-music.com if you're interested. From all of my personal experiences, Heart never fails to "bring it home" they totally rock the hell out of every venue they grace. After 30+ years, Ann Wilson still has the best voice on the planet (in my opinion :eek: ) and still nails ALL of those high notes, sending chills straight up your spine! Nancy Wizzfingers Wilson is still on top of her game with her playing style and creativity.
Ticket prices are very good and I can promise that you will NOT be disappointed.
Unfortunately, I think that I may be disappointed because so far, there's no talk of them rocking anywhere within a 300 mile radius of me which is about as far as I could travel at this time. :( But I'm still keeping my fingers crossed...!!! |

Location: Canton (Detroit), MI | Glad to hear Ann and Nancy and company are going out on the road this summer, I'll certainly be in line for tickets if they get near Detroit. I was disappointed they didn't tour last summer due to Nancy completing the score for the movie "Elizabethtown".
Wonder who's going to be the bass player? I understand Mike Inez has jumped ship back to the reformed Alice In Chains.

anyway I think its safe to say Nancy has never truly received her props as a guitarist. That girl kicks some major booty.

They absolutely ROCK! I just spent 15 yrs. in PDX and the free concerts at the parks in OR and WA are sacred.
I went to a great one at Pioneer Square that was billed as the LoveMongers and just chilled ya to the bone.
They still got IT! And YES! Nancy is as HOT as ever. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | OK, I had the airport designation figured out, but when Pokeypup said she left PDX in O4, I thought she may have worked at or lived at the airport, or maybe that I just didn't know what PDX really stood for. Too lazy to type Portland made as much sense as anything IMHO. I figured out that one and LOL pretty quickly. ROFLMAO took me awhile, but I instantly recognized SWMBO. |

My Mom worked there for nearly 20 years and other than the Molalla Y-Market, there is no place closer to shop for vittles. ;)
( except, P-O-R-T-L-A-N-D)
I was wondering if you may have known her. :)
She worked at the Y-market too for quite awhile. |

Location: closely held secret | Well, I've lived near Molalla for 11 years, been in the Y fairly often, but never got to know anyone. Of course, now it's called Toad's Express.
Never shopped that often in Freddy's unless they had something on sale or I was hitting Starbuck's anyway.
But, you never know! Last name? |

Toad's express? WOW! it shows how often I have gotten out there. I think the last time I had been near Colton was to get a Christmas tree at one of the farms, a long time ago.
Duh! It just hit me the other day, where, Colton was. I had been looking to buy some property out there, once upon a time. |

Sorry, haven't known any Fergusons in OC or Molalla. |
