I guess I’ll be dying my hair blonde
When The Police announced that they were reuniting for a reunion tour (almost exactly a year ago), I told my two daughters that if the band made it to Ottawa I’d dye my hair blonde. I forgot about that. My youngest daughter didn’t. So, when I told to her today that The Police have announced that they’re kicking off the third — and final — leg of their world tour in Ottawa on May 1, she started doing a dance, swinging a pointed finger at me and chanting “you’re dying your hair”.
So, as I contemplate the idea of spreading peroxide in my hair… I am also struck by the fact that Elvis Costello will be opening for The Police on their final stretch. Why is this interesting? Back in the day, Elvis Costello had some unflattering things to say about Sting and the boys.
A concert with two Rock and Roll Hall of Fame bands is worth the outrageous ticket price I’m sure to pay.

I just wish I had hair to do it! Maybe you can turn this into a combo Just One More Book meets Electric Sky Podcast.

Damn. Fiction Plane was a perfectly fine opener, but I’d much rather have seen Elvis Costello.

We all want to see the pictures. Sounds like a road trip to Oregon is in my future.
