U is for Down Under

We are heading down under for today’s performance. Not literally – LOL. We are at our favorite Mountain Winery to see Men at Work. They were the opening act for Rick Springfield and it was another great show.

Adele’s Garden is a small area on the winery grounds and because we are Wells Fargo customers we get early access to this area, free water and a snack. They usually have a warm up band there and this one was pretty good.

Men at Work is a special band to us because when we were dating we drove up to Reno for a couple of days and listened to their music on the way up. We had never seen them in person before so we were excited to see that they were opening for Rick Springfield.

I managed to add this video before I started losing space on WP. Enjoy “Who Can It Be Now.”

    Great selection of photos. I just had an idea how you can free up space: why not create a YouTube channel for your videos and just embed them in your posts?

  2. Rick Springfield used to be on General Hospital when I watched it. I enjoyed his music.

    Other than the title of your post, I’d not heard anything by them before, so appreciated your clip – they sound like a fun band to see live 🙂
