Ive been trying to do this for a while now. A week ago I went to a U2 concert, and they were awesome. I think the big obstacle in my way is that I dont stay on top of it; I only find out a band is here a day or two before the concert. Also, I will only go if I really want to see them – I wont go just for the sake of going.

How I did it: The hardest part was finding someone in my organization with a job that would take me in a place I wanted to go. My current office had a position in another city, and although it meant another year of shift work, I took it. Once that happened, I found a replacement for myself in my apartment, I moved out, and I up and left town - permanently. Ha! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I found a place in DC that has it. Its called Wisdom, and they have a selection of 5 or 6 different brands. I picked one, they did the whole process of preparing it in front of me, and it was pretty good. It wasnt strong at all and was very smooth. The bartender was nice, and if it was in a more convenient location, I would probably go back every now and then. Read how I did it…
After a long delay, I read Wolves of the Calla. I had it and could have read it sooner, but thats another story. Anyway, it was good, and I am now a little over halfway through Song of Susannah. Im enjoying it, so so far so good.
I went back to China again this summer and did a Silk Road tour. I still want to go back one more time though to see Tibet.
