Forwarded to my blog etc. That's a very pretty graphic! Bummer it won't come up here, but some folks were abusing the bandwidth with their photos so they had to block that feature long ago.

I hope everyone has a good time, sounds like a plan. This is a non-RSVP far too far and too expensive for me. Be sure and give us a good report!

Bum me out. This would have been worthwhile.

MBT posted a link to tickets, but they appear to be normal, everyday tickets. My reading comprehension is poor, but I assumed one would buy a general ticket and then have to be aggressive and all to be first-served. In my experience, showing up first places has meant the rules change three times and I'm in the back of the line, for all my waiting.

On the other stuff, the Moodies must love you, luna. They're giving you everything you ask - a land cruise on the left side of the country. Your wisdom paid off. What I spent on airfare, you can spend on actual concerts.

Las Vegas can be sunny and warm. I think casinos are dorky, but to each his own. I suppose I am just bummed out because I'm so spoiled. My order of operations is all messed up. I despise hype and frenzy, and yet that's how things are promoted. "They" should just take a percentage of my pay checks and say, "These are the shows you are going to see;" better, they could tax me the amount of wages a certain employer doesn't get around to paying me .......

The R&R HoF came across as a big pile of garbage for a lot of money, but as time passes and doors close, the package keeps getting better.

Then, there's the cruise. Will I see more than one concert for a week off work? I reserved a single cabin for what could have purchased four shows in Las Vegas, but I can't find these people you say seek cabinmates, as I locked myself out of facebook because I was using the guest computer at the hotel. Oh, I'm not locked out. I just need to learn how to read text messages on the landline.

Then, the computer has been down all day. A tech is working on it now, and this is my laptop. I have done nothing all day but wait and wait. Then, there's the noise from the TV. The only thing to make this day worse would be a Microsoft update.

That was super-kind of you. I have a membership card, which I almost threw out when I learned I had to join before a certain time to be eligible.

However, please consider I get paid about $400 a week, I have costs of living, taxes, and car repairs, and I am too monstrously piggy to subsist on $40 a week for groceries. I already work weekends, and I refuse to work three shifts on a regular basis.

The last three attempts to purchase tickets were rejected, and I need a break at work long enough to sit on hold with the bank's fraud department. Could I have reached the legal limit of Moodies concerts?

Though I'd love to do it, I am not in the mood to think about it right now.

My debit card's inability to buy anything pertaining to Justin concerts is really having me put off right now. I can barely wait for Monday when I will muster the gumption to grovel and beg my bank to cut some leniency. What would they do if I tried to buy a bottle of beer?

Don't short yourself on sugars.... I stick to 100% juices myself. It makes you weird and you get headaches.

I need to do my dishes. Later...

Here's the ironed out schedule. That's three hours for two posthumous presentations, and how many bands again who will play live? Should be a good show, if you have binoculars. Or robbed a bank recently.

Thurs., April 12, 8pm ET (Happy Hour starts at 7pm ET) @ Rock Hall: Hall of Fame Series Interview with The Moody Blues - Justin Hayward, John Lodge, and Graeme Edge of The Moody Blues will discuss their Induction, careers, and influence. Free event; limited capacity; space available on a first-come, first-served basis; standing room only.

Sat., April 14,
5:30pm - 7:30pm ET: Red Carpet Live Stream - Available on Rock Hall's facebook, YouTube, or rockhall.com.
7:30pm ET: 33rd Annual Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony @ Public Hall; Simulcast Party @ Rock Hall
11pm ET: DJ Questlove @ House of Blues Cleveland: Tickets on sale through ticketmaster.com.

Justin will probably be tucked in bed with a cold beer and his computer by that time. Or doing a party. I just put up the schedule as I saw it.

I'm still rolling my eyes over the red carpet.

Marketing is so amazing. It promises all this wonderful dreamy glitz for people if they just show up and spend money, and it's all cotton candy. But I indeed hope everyone has a good time.

Naw it's just a matter of money. There WERE no tickets within decent distance of the front, unless you paid high. For locals only.... wouldn't spend all that cash to go see their mouse trap.

I had a thought, I wonder if the Interview on April 12 will be including Mike Pinder and Denny Laine?
