I see the price has gone up to $1300.  The swapped out the brake pads and tires every day for that event.  The tires run nearly $500 each retail.

We had a 4 cylinder CTS at the time which is how I got invited.  It was interesting moving from 260 hp to 640 hp.

They do a two day event in Vegas for somewhere around $2800, lodging and all food included.

Race weekend was awesome.  I even enjoyed the Pink concert a lot more than I thought I would.

And the Friday concert with Imagine Dragons was quite good.  Only sorry we couldn't get my 12yo daughter out there for it, that's her favorite band.

I see women with PINK shirts and shorts on fairly often, I surmise that means the band?

ahh, a carnival act

So, does P.I.N.K. have a meaning?  Didn't see any pink color in the pic.

All I can tell you, is that she can sing.  Really, really well.  And she sings pretty well even while on flying trapeze equipment.

Is that a trapeze?

It looks like something that--in my ignorance of both--I would associate with S&M or B&D.

Wait... wat??????

It's suspended over the stage and she climbs and swings on it and it moves up to maybe 70-90 feet above the stage.  She flips upside down, etc.  Pretty circusy to me.

She also has a harness with a 4-way cable system (like those cameras flying over the field at a football game) that she straps into and it takes her well off the stage, over the crowd, up to a couple hundred feet.  It was actually pretty cool because for those of us that stay way to the back in such crowd settings, she got pretty close, maybe 50 feet away.

 When I was a kid, a singer would come out and just sing, nothing else.  Of course, we only had radio.

Well, yeah.  A lot of things have changed since you were a kid.  And since I was a kid.

But using trapeze or cable systems on stage to fly out over the crowd isn't really something "new" unless you consider the early 1980s to be "new."  Rock band lead singers were doing it back then.  And perhaps before then, I couldn't tell you.

The only concerts we go to are for old foggies like us, folks sit around in tuxes and play complex tunes with some dude waving a baton at them.

Nobody is on any trapeeze thingee.

I think I prefer the acoustics in Cincinnati to those in Atlanta.  Or maybe it's the orchestra or conductor, I'm not sure.  The wife wants the guy in Cincy to move here and take over, he's French also.  Nice guy.

They have some circ du solay thingee happening near us also, probably have trapeezes.
