The latest pictures uploaded that appear on the front of my Flickr page maybe from the past, but all of the pictures will be sorted by date in the sets and collections portion.

After work today, Crystal and I rushed home to get changed and head over to Philly to see the Person to Person Tour with the Polyphonic Spree, Rooney and the Redwalls. We didn’t have much time, so we got some food from the Chick-Fil-A drive-thru and ate in the car on our way to Philly. When we got to Philly, we saw plenty of parking spots a few blocks away from the concert venue, the Trocadero Theatre. Crystal wanted to get greedy and try parking even closer to the venue, so I drove up even closer to see. Luckily for us, someone was leaving and we got a parking spot right in front of the theater… wait in line, meet Diane from Temple

The Redwalls, we saw them on our first date alone together.

Rooney, good, loud girls screaming, camera battery dying, Diane takes pictures, thanks, got to see and hang out with the Redwalls after Rooney

Polyphonic Spree, red curtain, heart, lots of people/instruments in the band, lots of energy, Beatles, Nirvana cover

meet up with Chung and In Kyung, the Mann, Peter and the Wolf, The Philadelphia Orchestra, Rossen Milanov, conductor; Elissa Lee Koljonen, violin; BRITTEN Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Purcell, PROKOFIEV Peter and the Wolf,
SHOSTAKOVICH Violin Concerto No. 1; The Philadelphia Orchestra’s performance of Prokofiev’s classic Peter and the Wolf, with its riveting story and descriptive music, will be enhanced by the North American premiere of a new animated film. The edgy film is intended to appeal to a generation of young people raised on forms of entertainment (i.e. movies, video games, TV) that are darker and more visually oriented than those of previous generations and features stop-frame model animation. The program also features Britten’s Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Purcell and Shostakovich’s First Violin Concerto, performed by Philadelphia violinist Elissa Lee Koljonen.
