Leopard Frogs

 

Laurie and I took our annual trip to Great Meadows in Concord, MA to see Leopard Frogs. This is about the only place I know where I can see them regularly. Not much of a story, there were a lot there. I caught a couple and we took some photos. 

Little Lies, Fleetwood Mac Tribute Band

 

The Stevie Nicks and 
Lindsey Buckingham
of Little Lies

  Last year, proving we are old, Laurie and I went to a couple of summer concerts in Onset. They actually had some high quality bands. One of the ones we tried to go to was Little Lies. Unfortuanetely, by the time we got down there all of the parking spots were full. Disappointed by this, we ended up seeing them at a bar in Pawtucket a couple of months later. We were blown away by how good they were. Equally surprising, I really didn't know that Fleetwood Mac had so many hits. 

   We kept track of not only Onset's concert lineup for the summer, but also Little Lies website. On July 22 they played at Onset again. Normally, the concerts are at the half shell across from Onset Beach. This is a great place to see a concert. You have the beach across the street, ice cream at the venue, and pizza on the block. This year, renovations are taking place so the concerts are at the VFW (as if I didn't feel old already)

 

 So we went to the VFW where the concert was outside under a roofed pavilion. This is not as good of a place to see a show. It is cramped and because there is a roof, the sightlines are bad. Still, we got to see these guys and it was better than not going at all. 

  Fortunately, they played last Wednesday in Canton. They played at a field in front of a school. There was plenty of parking and room to put down a chair. Straight up, this tribute band is awesome and I almost feel guilty that the concerts are free. 

  They have two female lead singers, one that sounds like Stevie Nicks and the other that sounds like Christine McVee. They have a guitarist that sings Lindsey Buckingham's songs including two of my favorites "Monday Morning" and "Secondhand News". All three singers are great. The band is also great. They have a drummer, bass, and a keyboard. All of which get at least one solo during the show. The keyboard player also plays an accordion.

   I highly suggest you go to one of their concerts if they are in your area. We are actually going to see them again this coming Wednesday. They are playing in Easton only ten minutes from Laurie's house.
