It was awesome. I went to see them at House Of Blues back in may but just discovered that I deleted all of the video when I went away on vacation to NY. Grrrr... Anyway I did manage to salvage some pictures. I got a lot of video at this one too so .. I made a lens on the concert: <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/blue-october-live">Blue October - Jannus Live </a><br /> <br /> <b style="background-color: white; color: #454545; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">Justin Furstenfeld - Blue October - Janus Live (Photo from the show!)</b>artbymichellecollinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02661885910061098879noreply@blogger.com0St. Petersburg, FL, USA27.7730556 -82.63999999999998627.3235006 -83.285446999999991 28.2226106 -81.994552999999982tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507765359878839002.post-81744114014134682082011-08-25T10:59:00.000-07:002013-07-23T11:03:24.544-07:00We visited upstate New York in July.

That was not fun! They were a little crabby with all of the walking we had to do once we made it to our destinations. So next time NO KIDS!<br /> <br /> It was a very cool trip non the less. My girls will have a great memory.<br /> <br /> I have built a <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Squidoo</span> lens on the visit to New York City. I will be building lenses on the others soon.<br /> <br /> You can view the NYC vacation lens here:&nbsp;<a href="http://www.squidoo.com/new-york-city-trip">New York City</a>&nbsp;Summer Vacation.</div> artbymichellecollinshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02661885910061098879noreply@blogger.com0New York, NY, USA40.7143528 -74.005973140.3291643 -74.65142010000001 41.0995413 -73.3605261tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2507765359878839002.post-21467879629875234172010-09-20T06:02:00.000-07:002013-07-23T11:14:20.584-07:00<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkoBR-MZSZEyGlDGZU2lgtm3kAJOAX0MzXpeIntOwe5hyphenhyphennAL9Xlzlyrce0K7D2Sg4J0XzDwwGHcFJLghyHYeJGCJ4HV_fjmwNBigIcKwmlnvfgTpiTsd5s2c-Q3Ixr_J34ldem_6pYzg/s1600/Paula-Fuga.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5520152157111342994" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkoBR-MZSZEyGlDGZU2lgtm3kAJOAX0MzXpeIntOwe5hyphenhyphennAL9Xlzlyrce0K7D2Sg4J0XzDwwGHcFJLghyHYeJGCJ4HV_fjmwNBigIcKwmlnvfgTpiTsd5s2c-Q3Ixr_J34ldem_6pYzg/s320/Paula-Fuga.jpg" style="float: right; height: 223px; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; width: 250px;" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Photo of Paula Fuga during <br />Jack Johnson's Concert in Tampa ,&nbsp;Florida</td></tr> </tbody></table> <div> Paula Fuga is a Hawaiian Artist.
