Birthdays

Springsteen & The E-Street Band

For my birthday, I got tickets to take Jari to the Giants Stadium for one of the last ever concerts there. Bruce Springsteen (a favourite of Jari’s) was playing in his own backyard & had a series of 5 concerts as the last ever to be played at the old Giants Stadium before it was knocked down. Each night he played an entire album of his. On October 8th it was Born to Run. Jari loved the concert. I enjoyed parts of it, not being a great Springsteen fan (how can I say that??). He has some great tracks, others are kinda bland and not very interesting. He does put on a wonderful show, though, & really knows how to play the crowd. The evening was full of energy & the drunk idiot behind us that had the security guards come and talk to him just added to the overall atmosphere! As birthdays go, it was an exciting evening but I still think I preferred the BJH concert back in the ’70’s.

Happy Birthday, Phillipa!

On March 11th Phillipa celebrated her 15th birthday. Her best friend Jessica came down from Canada (with her Mom) to stay for a few days, much to Phillipa’s delight. They had a wonderful time hanging out together.

To celebrate her birthday, Phillipa invited some local friends as well as Jessica to a “Bowling Party” in North Brunswick.
