Concert

Well I started a post over the weekend, but my computer decided it would be a good time to randomly shut off, so here I am making another attempt. The concert was good - in fact, my uncle is *still* talking about it. Had I known he would have enjoyed it so much, I would have gotten better seats. He really loved the show. They do sound great live - and Eddie brought along his son, Wolfgang so that he could have a chance to tour & play guitar with him. Lets just say that it was cute and all, but he certainly isn't his dad!

That was the concert. Getting to the concert was a mess. Now, I think that Google is a rather neat company, and I've even made joking remarks about how they're going to take over the world. Except for Google Maps. I've used Google Maps before, and they've been horribly wrong. Not just a turn or two off, but exceptionally terrible. It had been a few years since that incident, so thinking they may have gotten things straightened out, I printed them out to Cleveland. My uncle knew how to get there, but looking at the directions, they looked much shorter by Google, so we went with those. Big mistake. The 1 1/2-2 hour drive to Cleveland ended up being over 2 1/2 hours. We arrived just 10 minutes before the show started (and that was with cutting off the long line waiting for the garage - by accident. Seriously.)

All in all it was fun. But I'm officially boycotting Google Maps!
