There are a couple of rumors going around the interwebs that I would like to address.
First off. I have never been to or will ever go to a Coldplay concert.
Second. It is true that we got a visit from Jethro and Bambi(aka. Jim and Barb from jimandbarbsrvadventure.blogspot.com).
Let me start from the beginning of how that all transpired. We got a call from a very excited Jethro. I mean he was super excited. He was talking so fast that it all sounded like jibberish. Or maybe it was the excessive amount of alcohol that he had consumed. Thankfully we were on the other end of the phone and not face to face because I can just imagine the spit flying, he was talking so fast. I will cut out all of the "Whoo-we's" and "Hot dawgs" just to shorten this story for you'all. Dag-gummit! Now he has me talking like him!
Well the jist of the conversation was this. They wanted to see our food trailer and how everything worked. Jethro had this great idea of wanting to sell pickled pigs feet, deep fried chicken feet, something he called Blackhills oysters dipped in a marmalade moonshine sauce, Bambi's famous tacos and blood sausage kabobs. I heard that and threw up in my mouth a little bit. So we agreed upon a day for them to visit. One that we were going to take our food trailer to. Well we waited and waited, looking at the time. We told them to be at our place so that they could ride with us and see how the food trailer works. Not kidding, five minutes before we were going to leave, a pick-up camper came barreling down our driveway as if Bo and Luke Duke were behind the wheel. Skidding to a stop. Bambi was hot on his tail just like Daisey Duke in her Jeep, trying to keep up.
I said "plug in that camper and lock up the hound dogs, we got to git(talking like him again). They jumped in our truck and we were off to the event. A concert at the Kirkbride park in town. On the way to town they sheepishly apologized for being so late. Jethro said that Bambi found a Walmart in a town on the way and was in shopping heaven. I guess they don't have Walmarts where they come from.
We made it on time to the event and got set up. Then we waited for the crowds. The music that night was a tribute band for Bruce Springsteen. They sounded good.
Well Bambi was very interested in how things worked. We showed her how things worked and she helped out as well. Jethro on the other hand was no where to be seen. I asked Bambi if she knew where he was. She said that he found the beer tent and would be gone the rest of the night. Figures.
