One Way or Another...

I love the 80's.

I am an 80's girl through and through. I blame my parents. I take much pride in the fact that I was born in the 80's (1989, but I still claim it). It was such a great generation. Everything was over the top and so out there. I especially love 80's music, and can sing along with all the top hits, word-for-word. Last week, we were given free tickets to the Blondie and Devo concert at Mountain Winery. 

Awesome. 

Jonathan is a total music buff and LOVES going to concerts. I'm still warming up to the whole concert thing. Don't get me wrong I love music, especially anything with a good beat. But....  I just have a hard time enjoying concerts, especially when I'm not familiar with the music.

But..... We were long overdue for a concert date-night and since the tickets were free and it was an artist that I actually knew, I figured we'd give it a try. 

So glad that we did.

It was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. Blondie is well into her 60's and she's still got it. She might have been a little sloshed to pull it off, but hey. She put on quite the show. I might have even found my Halloween outfit for this year. 

{Not the best quality, but you get the idea}

My biggest surprise of the night: DEVO. Blondie actually opened for Devo. We all thought this was odd, because Blondie seems to be more well-known. Devo was AWESOME. It was like stepping back into an 80's music video. It was so terribly awesome. Jonathan and I couldn't stop laughing. 

Jonathan's biggest surprise of the night: Mandie knowing every single word to One Way or Another, Whip It, Secret Agent Man, Heart of Glass, Satisfaction and many other songs. 

ROCK ON.
