I bought tickets yesterday to see Train. My oldest and I saw Pat Monahan a couple of years ago on his solo tour. Yep that's me with him. Goofy picture of me I know........He's a tiny guy but with a big voice.
Another picture of Pat during the gig. It was a small club in Boston called The Paradise. A great place to see bands, up close and personal
Calling All Angels. [sorry for the ad before the video, they are everywhere now]
I had my butt kicked at work this week. We were super super busy. I barely had time to pee or have coffee, maybe that's backwards.. Anyway.... I am behind on my blog reading and hope to catch ths weekend, although that is looking busy as well... sigh.

Ever since Train came out with "Drops of Jupiter", I have been a BIG fan. And then, lo and behold, I was watching an episode of CSI: NY (because y'know...Gary Sinise is my boyfriend) and Pat was guest starring. I think he was playing a character who had been a bum on the street and was "rescued" by these femme fatales rich girls who were then going to kill him for the life insurance money, but he was so convincing. I didn't realize it was Pat (having never really paid any attention to his picture before) until he started busting out "Hey Soul Sister" (which is also a rockin' song). Anyway, have a GREAT time...I can't wait to hear all about it!
I'm so jealous you got to meet Pat. I am a big fan of Train and his solo career. The lyrics are always so clever and the music is so catchy.
I'm oddly attracted to Pat, and I can't really explain it because he's not my usual type.
Must be a lot of animal magnetism in those fitted tees and faded jeans.
Pee and coffee have no order, they are in a never-ending circle!
Ohh Lucky you!!! Did you see him on CSI NY a few weeks ago - not the best actor but he did perform a couple of songs.
Wow, I forgot how cute he is!! I LOVE that song! It will be awesome, lucky!
I too forgot how cute he is!
How fun!
Okay, now I know I'm old...I've never heard of Train...or maybe I have and I've forgotten...but that would prove I'm old...eh gods.

LOVE train, LOVE the video....so JELOUS:)
hi...just hopped over from sits to say hi!!!
Great Song! I liked this post. I am sadly coming off my Eddie Izzard high. I still harbor the belief that he and I are meant to be. Is it weird to be attracted to a guy who dresses up like a woman occasionally.
He is kind of cute, isn't he?
And good to see you! I can finally put a face to the vodka.
I love Pat Monahan. What a voice. And I have to say, this reminds me I need to download their new song "Hey Soul Sister" or whatever it's called. love it.

Great song!! Nice picture!! Glad to have a face to see when I think of you! I have never heard of Train before! I think I just might have to look them up! And Secretia is right, pee and coffee are a never ending circle!!
Blimey, how cool is that?
I hate super busy weeks at work! I get through them by telling myself "it's paying the bills, Richard, it's paying the bills"!
Some weeks are like that. Sorry yours was so busy. We'll all still be here when you get time to visit.
I'm not a big concert person!!! But I love that picture! I'm so not a brave so I always miss out on the pictures!
Lucky duck!
I've seen Train twice in concert and LOVE them.
Lead singer has an usual sound and it's great.
Have fun.
I can't believe you got to have your picture taken with him once! I'd love to see Train in concert!
Train is awesome! Hope you get to relax and catch up.
great song. hope your weekend allows you to kick back a bit.
Train is awesome!!! Work is big time cutting into my blogging too :-(
I heard Drops of Jupiter this week at a coffee house and totally just laid back (in my mind anyways) and enjoyed it. And I just realised I don't have any music from Train on my itunes - need to dl some - cheers!
I love train!!!
Good for you, how cool is that??
He's so cute!
Hope you have a well deserved relaxing weekend ;)
Sounds like a great night of fun for you and your daughter!
A busy week at work can be good. The time flies and it is good job security:)
Have a restful weekend and enjoy yourself!
ok, i wasn't going to visit today b/c on my blog roll, from your title, i assumed the post would be another music clip that i would be unable to hear without my speakers...but then when i looked on my dashboard, i read this excerpt/preview. just like this. you will see why i changed my tune and came right over.
"I bought tickets yesterday to see Train. My oldest and I saw Pat Monahan a couple of years ago on his solo tour. Yep that's me with him. Goofy picture of me I know........He's a tiny guy but with a big"
...and it stops there, after the word "big".
glad i did, too. what a fun trip. he is a cutie and i too enjoy his music though currently listening exclusively to REO Speedwagon.
VL,
just catching up myself
BIG HUGS
That should be an awesome concert.
I think I might have been the only person in the world who didn't know that Pat Monahan (sp?) was the frontman for Train. I loved that band back in the day, and now, I love Pat Monahan... I just never made the connection!!
Stopping by from SITS Saturday Sharefest!

I love Train! Calling all Angels is my favorite Train song. Happy SITS Saturday!
Ohhhhhhh! I'd love to see Train! And I'm jealous you got a picture with Pat! And thanks - it was bugging me who the guest star in CSI NY was - when I saw your picture with him and Allyson's comment, I had an Ah-HA! moment! ;)
I wouldn't have minded seeing Train in a small venue. It's so long since I've been to a concert in Boston.....
Oh that'll be a great concert!!! Have a fun time!
Happy SITS Sharefest! :-)
Drops of Jupiter...a fab song! I go to concerts with my chicas, too. You're a good mom...you know how to get to their hearts, and you have a good time, too!
I love Train! I love their new song, too! Have so much fun!
