Hello all,
I have been absent from the bloggy blog world lately. I have not been in the blogging mood. Anyways, I went to a couple of fun events the past two weeks and here are some pictures that I thought I would share.
First off, the band I illustrate posters for, Moonalice opened up for U2 along with Lenny Kravitz. How cool is that? Hubby and I went and we had a blast.
Here are some pics from the show.
The lovely Ann Anatomic from Moonalice rocking the stage. They played a great set and sounded awesome! The sunlight that was shining down then, was harsh on the screen...oof.
Then Lenny Kravitz's turn! :) Notice our seating section...not a soul DIRECTLY in front of us! That is because hubby and I grabbed a spot on the baseball diamond fence so there would be nobody directly in front of us and we could see. :) We were so HAPPY and LOVED our seats (ahem, I mean standing seats lol)! Plus, since it was a standing room only section we could sit down on our blankie and sit against the fence in between bands to rest our feet. :)
Then U2.....yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! :)

U2 played an amazing show!!! Their stage set up was A-W-E-S-O-M-E! Best concert I have ever been to, besides seeing Pink Floyd there in 1994. :)
Then a week and half later, hubby and I went to the Sonoma County Hot Air Balloon Festival. I was super excited to go to this cause I LOVE LOVE LOVE hot air balloons and have been to the amazing one in New Mexico. So here are a few pics.

Here is the dawn patrol at 5AM. Yes, I was on the field at 5AM and though it was not as fabulous as I had pictured, it was still fun and very surreal being up that early. :)
My favorite balloon of them all was Sushi, piloted by Katie Griggs from Nevada. :)
Here is Sushi giving Justin Kinsinger's balloon (woohoo from SF) named Bob's Cat a big kiss! **MUAH**
Some of the awesome balloons all blown up ready for take off! The only problem was the dreaded fog decided to pay Windsor a visit that day and the balloons could not launch....booooooo. So they deflated and hubby and I left. We still had fun and spent the rest of the day wandering around Healdsburg and visiting my great aunt, which was time very well spent. :)
I am currently working on new posters for Moonalice. I'll be posting my latest one soon, so stay tuned! :)
I hope you all are well! Thank you for taking the time to stop by my blog and have a look. :)
