Did a little skiing earlier in the week, Loveland and the snow field and old ski area at St. Mary's. There is a sever lack of snow in the mountains and we are all praying for more to come in the next month before the Jackson Hole/Teton's trip. Gale force winds swept down off the Continental Divide at St. Mary's, ice crystals stinging the face. Got away without putting a few more deep gouges in the bottom of the skis.
White sheets on the bed
Antiseptic in the air
Beeping says there's life
Becoming a shadow
Remembers back to the start
Weep that we must part
Clouds before his eyes
White clad nurse like an angel
Comes to set him free
The dearest of friends
Loved our short time together
Handshake says goodbye
All the false alarms
Saved from what appears the brink
This time its over
Their campaign slogans
Give us what we want to hear
Serve up paradise
New Years Eve at home. The early part of the evening was spent outside listening to music, only to come inside and find Cold Play performing a live set on Austin City Limits on the television. Chris Martin counted down the arrival of the new year. Then it was onto fireworks outside and then more time in front of the television watching a new ski movie with superb photography I recently acquired.
THEM CROOKED VULTURES
What was special about this show was that Dave Grohl helped the band by playing the drums for this live performance at the Hoedern Pavilion in Sydney, Australia on January 26, 2010, an FM broadcast recording. This gig in Sydney was part of the extensive touring the trio did around the release of their excellent first album.

COLD PLAY
Having enjoyed their New Years Eve performance, I was looking for more from them, choosing to listen to their live performance at the Glastonbury Festival on June 25, 2005, this being an excellent sounding recording.

AMY WINEHOUSE
The holiday weekend was closed with my listening to Amy from atop the roof on the house as I watched the sunset, the lawn chair perched on the crest of the roof.
