Saw Iron Maiden last night

LOVED IT!!!!!

Why, well last time they were around they played there new album..there WHOLE new album. We got to hear about 2-3 classic songs and that was it. And while good it wasn't great. This year however they decided to give the fans what they wanted a nice retrospective of their best years.

With a stage setup similar to a cross between Powerslave and Somewhere in Time, meaning an Egyptian future theme. The boys put on one hell of a show, not every note was perfect and sometimes Bruce couldn't do the long screams of old but for the most part they were spot on.

Song list: Aces High, 2 Minutes to Midnight, Iron Maiden, Run to the Hills, Moonchild, Fear of the Dark, Heaven Can Wait, Powerslave, The Trooper, Hallowed be Thy Name, Can I Play With Madness, Revelations, Number of the Beast, Wasted Years, and the one song I never thought I'd hear live: The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

And Eddie there mascot came out in the form of a giant Mummy and a furteristic bounty hunter shooting the audience, I've seen him a bunch of times before, but it never gets old.

And the opening band was the Bassists own daughter Lauren Harris, who does female fronted rock, not as good as her dads band yet, and she's definately easy on the eyes.

It was also nice to see a lot of younger kids there. In fact a vast majority of the audience was under 26. THats a good sign that Metal won't just die out when it's current fans due. There was even a little kid, no more than 8 who was dancing and singing along almost right next to me. Made me feel good.

My kneck and throat have been sore all day but man was it fun. And whenever they stop touring, they start work on their next album. So in another 2 years I'll probably see them again.

Heres my problem:


I got a haircut today from a professional place for the first time ever. And I was all happy about it till I got home and was asked if I tipped the person....

which I hadn't.

I didn't know I was supposed too. And now I feel bad that I stiffed this poor person a tip when they did such a nice and quick job cutting my hair.

So my question is this:

Should I go back tommorow (it's on my way home from work), and try and apologize and give the tip, or just let it go and remember to do it in the future?

So..what would you do?

I've been put throught the wringer this past week week and a half. Every day for some reason I'm woken up early. I'm just serioulsy sleep deprived. And last night I finally got to catch up on some and then tragedy struck.

I was woken up at 5:30 am to hear a puppy had been born.

By 6am I was digging it's grave.

It was stillborn. We waited a couple hours to see if anymore would be born but none came. We don't know whats going on, the dog is still quite fat. If theres no change then tommorow she's going to the vet.

I worked outside all weekend too, so now I have a Sunburn.

And I've been activly drawing at work but nothing thats really good. I'm trying to perfect certain poses so right now their just comming out crappy. But when I finally do post something again it will look good.
