2.18" of rain since 7 AM yesterday here. I'm happy this was last night and not tonight.

I know, It's only rock and roll but I like it!

You going tonight, bj? or shadwick?

You going tonight, bj? or shadwick?

Hell to the yes. We are sitting up in 202, with a beautiful sight line down to the stage.

I forgot we got one of the lower-tier VIP packages, so we were surprised to get four Rolling Stones duffel bags/coolers and some other swag in the mail the other day

[mikey]

Nice! I made peace with the idea of not seeing them again last time they came around...I am on the fence about this time...it will be a game time decision, like most of my life...

In geologic-related weather events (.......), there have been 80,000 recorded aftershocks since the 7.1 shake 2 1/2 weeks ago.

[mikey]

Rolling Stones, not rolling stones...take your earthquake nonsense to the earthquake thread...

I don not have tickets, saw them last time around. If tickets plummet for tonight, I might go.

That's where I'm at too...I've been tracking it all day...I can get in for $130ish...but that's so far away...

I just saw a clip of the DC show (YouTube) to hear how they did Mercy Mercy...Keith has looked like death since '72, but he actually looks like he died...no bandanna, no coat, no hair really...looks like he just rolled out of bed...

Mick looks good though, sounds pretty good for...77...ish? Gotta be something like that...

And he just had heart surgery a couple months ago!

[mikey]

Yeah, I know...he sounded better than I expected on Mercy Mercy, he might even sound better than last tour...

If I pass here, I think it would be first time I skip on a Philly show since Steel Wheels (which, I'm told, I watched on pay-per-view...and one of the first songs I learned in my life that I would run around the living room singing is "Mixed Emotions" ) and that's because I was a toddler...

[blackjack68]

Thanks for making me feel old.

Damn, whippersnapper.

[mikey]

I had good intentions...

London, on Thursday, is supposed to hit 101F. That's...nuts.

Funny, my wife's aunt was just saying that's when she saw them, she got Steel Wheels tickets for her 30th birthday.

We paid $250/each...this is a bucket list concert for me and will probably be the last time they tour as currently constituted so no way I was going to miss it.

[DigitalGypsy66]

Huh, I saw Steel Wheels at Three Rivers, mostly for the opening act, Living Colour. I was in high school.

90 in Lytham & St Annes right before the thunderstorm came through. Didn’t feel like it but then, I’m used to the Florida steambath. BBC news people were losing their minds about it this morning. I guess when you’re not used to it, it’s a big deal.

NPR's Paris corresponded tweeted a picture of a forecasted high of 109 in Paris today. That's perfectly normal.

[count2infinity]

We need to stop looking at this as the hottest year on record, and start looking at it as the coolest year for the foreseeable future!

[DigitalGypsy66]

That is a very Trumpian post.

Concern about Notre Dame collapsing because the moisture still in much of the structure is going to dry too quickly and make it brittle.

[shafnutz05]

Can't speak for Europe, but it is a beautiful damn week in Pennsylvania. Cooling off nicely at night, humidity tolerable, etc.
