notes:
- Los Lobos opened
- Warning: this recording may cause side effects, symptoms including; distraction, utter joy, life reaffirming moments & in rare instances time travel.
- This was a quintessential New England summer day. I stood just at the top of the pathway into the stadium for hours with my eyes closed, an index finger checking the wind direction & an extended palm. It was a nice vantage point to hear Los Lobos. Mind you, I was sore I was missing them. Patiently I waited, when "it" happened I opened my eyes finding a very young girl, maybe 8 years old & her mother standing before me with an extra ticket. Her mom said "She insisted you have it." I will never forget it. Not because I got miracle'd but because of the smile on this young girls face. It's forever etched into my memory. While exchanging pleasantries, we walked into the show together, upon reaching the field, Sabrina saw Jan Sawka's stage artwork & gasped. She thought it was beautiful & like that, Mom was off in Sabrina's tow. I saw them later on during The Wheel & Sabrina came & danced with us. When Dear Mr Fantasy hit, Sabrina jumped for joy & sang along. When Hey Jude broke, she erupted again. But it wasn't until The Mighty Quinn encore that Sabrina, who didn't, shockingly, know it. She picked up on the theme immediately & danced like a soldier would march. She was our pied piper there & it was a simple & pure moment. - Joe.
