I feel fortunate in being able to purchase a ticket for the Houston concert Oct 8 and also the Grand Prairie concert Oct 9. Both are for 2nd row 'pit' seats and not too far from center, so I'm looking forward to the special treat of being able to see Loreena and all other nine musicians up close while I allow that fabulous sound they create to simply wash over and enchant me! It does feel spiritually healing, somehow.

Although neither city is terribly far from me--it should take about 4 to 5 hours, traffic depending, to reach Houston from my home and the same for Grand Prairie from Houston--it is only about 2 hours and 15 minutes back from GP to where I live. Since I reserved motels in both cities, I THINK I can do it--drove much further last April--but am rather wondering if perhaps I should have only gone for Grand Prairie, since it's much closer to home and I could have driven over, heard the concert, and then returned home from the Nokia Theatre the same evening. I have been to the Nokia for concerts before and that was how I did it. Of course, I shall do my utmost to make both of the concerts.

If anyone here would care to say 'hi' at either of those concerts, please feel free to let me know, okay? It's always nice to meet others who also enjoy this fine music.
