FRIDAY MUSIC

One of the greatest things about living in Iselin, like I've always said, is how close you are to so many wonderful experiences. That was highlighted for me this past weekend, when my husband, son and I took a road trip to see the Firefly Festival in Dover, Delaware.

We are really pretty close to Dover, so it wasn't such a problem to spend the weekend there -- and we had a great time! The festival was held near Dover Nascar Track, and there was a casino right there too, so it's a nice destination.

And, also, it was interesting how many times a musician would come out and say to the crowd "Wow, I never played in Delaware before!" Imagine living in a state that you could never get to a concert nearby? I love living in Iselin, with easy access to concerts in NYC, the Meadowlands, Newark, and Philly!

So - for Friday Music - I'm putting up a video of my vacation last weekend :) I hope I don't bore you too much. It's really long. There are mostly snippets of lots of songs. BEST FESTIVAL EVER!!! Can't wait 'til next year! And, well, if you are bored, you can certainly just turn it off! So, here's my LONG VIDEO... I'd be glad to hear comments!

I didn't get to see ALL of the acts at the festival - you can only be in one place at a time, right? I also didn't video everything I did see. My battery wasn't unlimited, unfortunately, and ya know, when you are videotaping, you can't really sing or dance! The Killers did an AMAZING set - I think I sang and danced the whole time! - so I grabbed someone else's video off youtube:

And we also saw the Flaming Lips; we didn't video them either, but I know a lot of people like them. The show was really cool but they aren't one of our favorite groups. So here is a video from them:
