I'm headed to Broadway...

I'm headed to Broadway...

So, did anybody miss me? I was away for four days for a family wedding (and, wouldn't you know, The Tragically Hip were kind enough to schedule two dates in the area we were visiting, so we managed to squeeze those in too!), and spent yesterday playing catch-up. It was a great trip, albeit very whirlwind, as I flip-flopped between family commitments and rocking out and getting very little sleep in the process!

So now I'm back. I totally missed Digital Scrapbooking Day on Saturday since I was away. I trust everyone had fun checking out the sales and events all of the sites had cooked up! The day at Scrapbookgraphics was a smashing success from all I heard about it. Wish I could have been there! Our launch sale at Altered Art Chicks was a huge success. Thanks to everyone who visited and bought some goodies!

My subject line refers to my destination this evening. I'm going to see my teen idols Duran Duran... they are doing a string of shows in a Broadway theater. I'm so excited I can't sit still. We are in the 16th row, I think. Attending with me are Mike (maybe he was worried I'd run away with Simon if he didn't come with me), Melissa, Jenn, and Melissa's friend Maureen. Back before I was ga-ga over the music of Neil Finn, The Tragically Hip, Matthew Sweet and the like, Duran Duran had my music-loving heart. My friend Marcie has been to several shows in the past week and said they are amazing. So I'm very hyped up and excited, and I haven't even had any caffeine yet today. :>>

So, today's question is: who was your teen idol? Who was in those posters on your bedroom wall back in the day? And don't you still have a teeny-tiny crush on that person still? (I know I'm not the only one!)

Lionel Richie (and the Commodores) was the only singer I had a poster of, plus a few of soccer stars and some nice ones of England. I suppose I was not your normal child. ;)

I always miss ya! Have fun at Duran Duran. I have been busy at RAKs so I will catch up with our quotes soon! I'm off for a few days after tonight.

One of my first idols was Bruce Springsteen. I was in love with him back in the Born in the USA days and I still am! :) Think that's the only crush I've kept since my side ponytail days: Corey Haim, Michael J. Fox, Kirk Cameron, NKOTB. I had posters covering every inch of my room.
