Whatta Weekend!

Wow. I'm tired.

Why?

Last night, Liz and I went to our first big concert together: Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers at nearby White River Ampitheater.

What a fantastic show. Tom played for two hours, covered all the major songs, hit a couple of Yardbirds covers and a Travelling Willburys' cover.

But wait, that's not all.

Halfway through the show, Stevie Nicks came out for a few duets. That's when the energy really started to take off.

Then Stevie took a rest, and Tom said "we did this song back in 1981, and lots of people have covered it - but no one has covered it better than Eddie Vedder." And then, Eddie Vedder came out and sang.

The finale ended with Tom, Eddie, and Stevie all singing "American Girl."

The show was amazing. Liz loved it. I loved it. And I need some more coffee.
