Let me elaborate...
My person (whose name is Beth, BTW) saw on the old Book of Face that the lead singer of one of her *favorite* bands from Back When is going to be in Woodstock on March 4th.
Beth: Not "back when." They're back together!
Anyway, said band is called the Bongos and their lead singer, Richard Barone, has written several books and he's going to be in Woodstock talking about the very music scene we both missed (her because she was too young, me because, well, I kind of didn't exist back in the early 80s....) And since we have to be up in Poughkeepsie at what Maddy lovingly referred to as the "Arse-Crack of Dawn" that day, we're pretty much a third or so of the way there.
My person is mildly freaking out over the prospect because it involves one of her least favorite things to do, crossing a bridge (we're totally on the wrong side of the Hudson for this) and she's nervous as all heck about actually going but I don't think her seventeen-year-old self would ever, ever forgive her current self if she didn't, so....
Road trip!
