I'm going to

I'm going to something called Farm Aid today.  It's a thing where people save money to help small family farms.  People and bands ply music and people have to pay to get in and listen.  That is how people collect money to help small farms. 

My sisters are going to a different concert thingie.  They are going to a Jakes Leg concert.  My mom is vending there.  And friends are going to be there, too.  But I want to go to Farm Aid. 

Also, there is something called Spiral Scouts that I'm not going to today.  It's in Pier Marquet, and will not be going there.  Some of my other friends are going there.  But I want to go to Farm Aid.  

Why do I want to go to Farm Aid?  Because Neil Young is playing.  And I want to see Neil Young.  Neil Young and Tom Waits are the people I want to see.  My dad is taking me and our aunt Steph.    If dad belived in god and liked whiney voices, then we would probably go to the Farm Aid thing when it begins.  But we're going to go when the seventh person starts, Billy Joe Shaver.  And a list of who I am going to see: Billy Joe Shaver, Jamey Johnson, Gretchen Wilson, Wilco, Jason Mraz, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds, John "Cougar" Mellencamp, Neil Young, and Willie Nelson.  

Well, I've only seen two of those people play live at a concert.  John "Cougar" Mellencamp.  He dances weird and wears weird clothes.  And his name sounds funny.  And I've also seen Willie Nelson.  I think his kid is playing in Farm Aid, too, but I'm not going to see him play.  

So, I am going to make a list on who I am NOT going to see: The Blackwood Quartet, phosphorescent, Will Dailey, Eirney Isley and the Jam Band, Lukas Nelson and Promise of the Real, Ryan Bingham and the Dead Horses.  And that's all.  

So, a question:  Has anyone heard of any of those people?  Have you heard them?  Who do you like?  And whatever?

You get to see Jason Mraz??  That's so cool!  I'd love to see him in concert.  Well, I like two of his songs!  :D

What songs do you like?  The first song he played kind of sounded reggae-ish.  I'm not really sure if I like Jason Mraz, just like I'm not really sure if I like Widespread Panic. 

Now, talking about my hate of porta poddies.  They are EVIL!!!!!  Well, not really, I just don't like them.  Imagine if you were short, and yur dad or mom had to hold you over a mountain of poop so you can poop.  And I had to I used napkins to wioe my butt.  Can you see how that could give you a life-long hate of porta poddies?

Ryan Bingham... I have no idea what I thought of him, because I didn't hear him!  Well, maybe you like someone else?  Neil Young? Wilco, formerly known as Prince?
