Rocktoberfest!

So it has been a while...to long for me for sure...but my bud from College, Joe, and I went to Ashville, NC last week for his birthday to catch the UK band Porcupine Tree and let me tell you it was freaking awesome!

They played a 2 hour set and it was just as last time...mind blowing. I do have to say that this is the first time I went to Ashville and hit up the actual city. Lots and lots of hippies, it reminded me of my college days at Oneonta State in NY. And I did not try the muffin at the local coffee store, called the Dripolater. We walked in to get that coffee shot in the morning and there on the rack was the Secret Ingredient Bran Muffin...Yeah...Like I am going to try that...

I've logged over 540 miles now and gearing up for a 15k this weekend, two half marathons are coming up as well in the following 2 months so this should be fun (for me...I didn't say for you).

The cooler weather is finally here which is awesome. And you might have noticed the new World Of El Dude logo up top...I think it's close but not quite there. So have fun and go out and get a pint...if it's to early in the morning go for a walk or a run. Just go out and enjoy the cooler weather. Oh and one last thing...lets all pause for a moment and wish to the Gods that rain comes to Charlotte. The creek dried up and the grass is like walking on straw. Later on Boys and Girls!
