SCORE!

No, I'm not talking about March Madness (although I just watched Texas Tech upset Gonzaga). This morning I scored tickets to U2's concert in Pittsburgh on October 22.

I have to confess I am pumped. Over the past 30 years I have had the opportunity to see just about every major musical act - from my very first concert in 1972 (Elton John) - to celebrating a birthday with Paul McCartney a few years ago in Cleveland. U2 is the one super band I have never seen live, but in October a musical dream will come true.

7 months but who's counting...
