weekend review (finally)

so i’m just now getting around to posting my “weekend fun times” from last weekend. here goes…

friday was the wildflower festival in richardson, it was so much fun! we saw loverboy and bat benatar. pat was amazing i really had no expectations, just wanted to have fun, but man she’s still got it! the pics didn’t end up so great, so sorry about not having any.

saturday was definitely an adventure! i went with some girlfriends to the assassination city roller derby. it was in mesquite, tx, at a local skating rink. the first bout was inter-league with the bombshell brigade vs. the lone star assassins. for the second bout, the deadly kennedys beat the central arkansas rockin’ renegade. the halftime (not sure if that’s the right term…) entertainment was fun, first was the “urban glow”

kinda blurry, but you get the picture right? the second act was “the velvet kittens” which is a burlesque dancing group. i thought that was so cool! i wonder if those girls get nervous performing in front of the derby fans…

again with the blurry-ness but they are fast!!

we got so into the derby, we came up with our own names

from left: jenny jumphugh, switchblade steph, double 0 no she didn’t!, and fishnet fung

so afterward even though i was exhausted, stephen and i headed up to the cavern and watched the feds, one of our friend’s bands. good times!

so on to sunday…

i took stephen and roxy to the farmer’s market for the first time and again nearly bought out the place! then we prepared to go to radiohead. my pics are really not great…at all. but here are a couple:

i can not express again just how much of an awesome show it was. i have video but it takes SO long to upload!! so maybe one day i’ll add it to my little youtube collection.
