Ode to Neil Young
Last weekend was the 22nd annual bridge benefit concert...we made the journey out to San Francisco to experience another great show. The line for this years concert was Band of Horses, Cat Powers, Death Cab for Cutie, Wilco, Sarah Mclachlan, Smashing pumpkins, Josh Groban, Norah Jones, Jack Johnson, and one of the greatest rockers of all time Neil Young. It really is a fun show to go to because of the nature of the show, with it being a benefit concert for the bridge school (a school for kids with severe speech and physical impairment) the artists seem to have a fresh and fun energy that you don't usually get to see when they are on tour, and everything is acoustic. Pretty much all the performances were strong but by far the best performers were Band of Horses, Wilco, Jack Johnson, and Neil Young. Check out some of the highlights from the show and make plans to come with us next year.

When I told MP where you were, he of course replied "was it a recording cause that guy's dead, right?" Super jealous that I couldn't go but I'll bet you're more jealous that I have been in Californication for 3 crappydays away from my fam and working with choners.......hey, wait a minute!
I new you guys were still alive. Cool show I bet. I haven't been to a good rock concert since Poison last summer. Seriously, it was a fun show but we are gearing up for Coldplay in a couple of weeks. Can't wait!!
you guys are spoiled rotten!
