METALLICA weekend!!! Orion Music Festival

[tdk2]

On Detroit's Belle Isle. (huge awesome island)

SOOOOOOO excited. 


We were given 2 day passes from the radio places we work with, but w/ work schedule, we'll probably only really make Sunday for concert(s).  We may still duck out on Sat to check out all the festivities.   Dh is going to strive to not need to work early that day.



And it'd be SUPER cool if they notice our restaurant while they're in town.   There's a chance.  We were talking w/ their organizers for a little bit about a potential party, but that didn't happen this year, so maybe the organizer peeps will swing by and check it out while they're in town for future years.   FIngers crossed maybe we could nail that down next year.  (there's talk of 3 years here for them)

Dh better watch out if I get to meet James Hetfield... (I don't see that happening this year although many ppl I know and work w/ on city stuff just did today.   I"m not that cool and I"m not as involved nowadays)  Kirk Hammett is pretty damn cute as well! 




Kind of neat Metallica will be baby 2's first womb concert.    I"ve been a slacker this time. At this point in my pg w/ C, she had been to at lest 8 concerts!  dh and I have always gone to Metallica concerts together.   He still tells the story of how he and our friends figured we'd be way in the back at Metallica's millenium NYE concert in Detroit.   I was like "NO WAY IN HELL" and got us through the crowd to about 5 rows back.   Then I had to go to the bathroom and they were deciding where to meet me at the end since they figured I wouldn't get back.  I again said fuck that, and was back w/in a few minutes to the same spot.   Neat neat concerts.


I'm feeling kind of wimpy b/c I dont' think I could handle 2 full days of festival concerts this pregnancy.   ANd it'll probably smell a lot like drunk ppl and portapotties suck.  (which isn't great on a pukey pregnant person).
