Pearl Jam!!

Pearl Jam began their 4 date close-out of Philly's Spectrum on Tuesday night, and by Wednesday morning message boards were filled with topics like "Saturday until 2AM..." . It seems Ed Vedder made a comment that by 2AM Saturday night they will have played every someg they know! So teh speculation started ... Could this be true? Will they be playing until 2AM?? People started digging for info. Apparently various Spectrum security staff has confirmed that they will need to stay until 3AM (some policy is in place that security stays around until an hour afterteh show is over).

Currently the longest Pearl Jam show is from 5/3/03 - State College, PA (and I was there!!!!) and clocked in at 3.5 hours. (Though there is some debate that the 3rd Mansfield, MA show is longer due too PJ playing an acoutstic set, then Sleater-Kinney "opening"; then Pearl Jam playing their main set).

Saturday should put the debate to rest!!

Can't wait....updates after I return :D

So I ordered a coat rack to bring some order to the chaos!

I was scrolling thru Twitter this afternoon and saw a tweet from @Pearl Jam announcing a Mobile App for Verizon Tour customers :D

So I of course stopped what I was doing and downloaded...

1)It's free :)

2) You can download select songs from this summers tour

3) Wallpaper for your phone (live shots from the tour!)

4) Tour Dates

5) Setlists

AWESOME!

So glad I stayed with Verizon when I upgraded ;)

I have wanted a Wii for a while, but kept putting it off. Then a few weeks ago Nintendo announced the big price drop. Shortly there afetr a co-worker sent out a link where Amazon had the Wii + Free Shipping + $25 Amazon Giftcard all for $199. Done Deal!

The system arrived a few weeks ago. I have been crazy busy, but managed to play a little Bowling and Tennis. I also order Wii Fit Plus with the gift card. I hoep to have that set up this week!

My latest want :D

One of the decorative features I first fell in love with when I first went to look at what became my new house was the original stained glass windows in the living room (very faded though)...



I knew I had to replace all the windows going in... so I wanted to try and keep stained glass in the Living Room....but as I was looking around... I was finding the cost to be outrageous.

Then my mom mentioned a friend that had decorative films on a window of hers.

So I looked online and ordered some samples. I fell in love with what I eventually ended up getting for the living room....

The I ordered some Ice for my Bathrooom... which turned out AWESOME!!!!


Bathroom

and some stained glass for my master closet window:

(I also got some plain Sandblast films for my basement to have some additional privacy (on one side of the basement with the new windows there is no longer room to hang tension rods for curtains).

It all turned out really well, and was super cost effective. I should have measured better (I cut it very close on two of the installations), but it was all pretty easy to install.

but its out of stock :(
