Meteor Watching Alert
 
For anyone who enjoys watching a good meteor shower, the opportunity
is upon you, providing you can get away from the city lights. The
best times are supposed to be tomorrow (Wed/11th and Thursday/!2th).

I am planning on going to the boat with some friends and some good
meteor watching music and a thermos of margaritas and see what I can
see.

For me, I may get out and dust off some of my old Andreas
Vollenweider. I have fond memories of listening to him the first time
I chartered in Maine. Sitting in the cockpit of that Bermuda 40 on
those incredibly dark nights, while at anchor, and seeing the
occasional shooring star while drinking wine with friends. I have
never seen such night skies. It doesn't get any better than that:)
That was our evening music and Tina Turner was our sailing music.
What a great time.

To answer your question, though, anything you happen to like.

Turns out it didn't matter. I only saw two. The sky was just a bit
too overcast. One of my little party claimed to see six, and another
only saw one, but as he was snoring most of the time, I would say that
was suspect. Maybe next time:)

No, I'm not kidding... but I think they are (or were, until they
discovered they could make money at it)

Actually Dred Zep is pretty good. I don't think they were the first
though. Among party bands around here, doing other Led Zeppelin songs in
reggae was a fad about 20 years ago... long ago and far away... it just
goes to show that everything comes back into style if you wait long enough.

Anyway, it's definitely better than doing Kingston Trio songs in heavy
metal.
