The Continuing Adventures of.... ME!!!




I went to Atlantic City With my Sister and her Husband Saturday. We had a nice time. He decided that he didn't want to drive all the way home in the dark so I had booked a room at the Econo Lodge for the three of us.... Not a problem, since he invited me along and paid for my ticket.


















Don't I look Tré Sexy in my new concert tee?

The concert was unbelievably good. It was over two hours. I kept wondering when they'd run out of things to play.... but thinking about it, with a career spanning as long as his has I'm suprised the show wasn't longer!

I fell into hysterical laughter at one point and had to stifle myself.

Never In my life did I ever expect to see what was going on. I'm not exactly a spring chicken... but there were hundreds of us old farts rocking out and "partying like it was 1999". There were people who had to be 70 dancing in the aisles and jumping around like they were still in their twenties. It was an awesome sight to behold! I was expecting someone to keel over. Fortunately nobody did. I guess you are never too old to rock and roll, just too young to die.


There were plenty of young people there too, couples who were in their twenties.

John is looking pretty good too. I'd expected worse. He sounds great. Here's a couple of crappy pictures.






Borgata security was pretty good at making sure nobody took any.


They didn't take anybody's phone or camera, they just made sure they stopped taking a visual or audio record of the show. Everyone seemed to comply.


I didn't get caught. I just have these two.



What's the big deal? Unless you have a really pricey super duper phone you just get shitty pictures at concerts anyway.

(Unless you have really good expensive tickets to see Genesis :) I could have reached over and touched Phil's groupie or whoever she was.)

The seats were better than they look from those crap pictures. I was 50-75 feet away I guess. Here's my ticket.




The Borgata has some very odd decor. These looked like blown glass. (There was also some "art" that consisted of apples. Real Fresh Normal Regular Apples. I know damned well that those hundreds of apples will end up in a landfill or something. They won't go to the poor and homeless in AC. Disgusting.)


I know that's blurry. It doesn't matter. It was darned ugly to begin with. It must have been 50 feet tall.





And what the hell is this thing supposed to be? Some mutant alien brain descending from the ceiling?




They're a matching set. There were more of the same sort scattered about. I didn't bother to take pictures of them, they were all horrible.


I was too busy looking at all the hotties.





I think the Very Hot, Very Tall Man Factory must have exploded and the prevailing wind blew them over to the casino.


6'2", 6'6"! OMG! He must be 6'10"!! All way too hot for me. Looked like they work out every other day. Nice on the eyes though.

There were plenty of gay boys too. Most of them were couples.

Here's some of the cocktail waitresses for any of the straight guys who might read this mess of a blog. (Sorry the pic isn't so good, I stole it, it was really dark, this is the result after messing with it.) They're pretty darned hot.



We had dinner at "Fat Burger" in the casino. If you have one near you try it out, it's a bit better than your usual fast food burger.

I also had "Tiramisu" for the first time. Figured I'd try something I'd never had before. I wasn't impressed.

After the show we went back to the motel.... I was totally bored being the night owl that I am, so I walked over to Bally's and lost $80.00 in the slots. It took a while. I didn't get back to the room untill around 3:30 am.

I was up 300.00 at one point. I should have stopped while I was ahead.

I LIKE the sculptures. The one that is not fuzzy anyway.

John Fogerty & Creedance were so cool back in the day! I don't have any John Fogerty records, but I do have 4 Creedance Clearwater albums. My son & his friends like them a lot, too. Good pool playing beer drinking music.

Very interesting. I didn't know you went to Atlantic City, unless you told me during one of our 3AM conversations and I just forgot.

Interesting picture of those cocktail waitresses ... they looked almost like transexuals, or at least strange looking gay guys in drag. I agree with you that that guy was pretty attractive, but that's just too tall for me. Who was he?

Arcturus, I think I told you... maybe not.

That's a really bad picture of the waitresses, they were all totally hot, every one of them.

With the litigious society we have today I'm suprised somebody hasn't filed suit because there are no hot cocktail boys there.

That guy, no idea who he is. That one was prolly about 6'. You should have seen him in reality, **drool** not that pic I scrunched down to hide his identity.
