The Next Generation of Fans

If you know me you know that I have a love for all things Bonnie Raitt and Mama S lovingly puts up with it.  I have everything she's done since 1970 (even the obscure stuff when I can get my hands on it) and have been known to travel far distances to see her, or even go without meals to afford tickets (more on that later maybe).  This weekend she was in Florida and I was able to catch 2 of her 3 concerts.  I was absolutely tickled when she shared a little anecdote before she sang "Have a Heart".  She talked about how many of her fans told of how they loved listening to her music in the car with their kids but weren't too keen on the first few words of the song being "Hey! Shut up!", as their little ones were picking up the term.  Everyone got a good chuckle and then she off-handedly commented that most of the kids of that time are in their 30s now experiencing the same thing that their parents had 20 years before.  I had to smile to myself and think about our future kiddos and the Bonnie-loving seeds that I will have to sow.  Maybe next time she's touring we'll have a few young fans in tow with us.  Won't that be grand? 

By the way, still no word on the Home Study, but I'm hopeful that we'll hear something soon.  Definitely makes "Nick of Time" more understandable!
