Ah, spring and summertime in the Triangle — for music lovers, it’s the best time of the year to see a variety of great shows. I’ve heard a lot of folks talking this week about the Rolling Stones at Carter Finley in July — tickets went on sale (and sold out) on Monday. Saw them there in 89 and 93 so will pass on the $350 tickets this go-around.
Three goals for this morning’s Q 1) leave the sterile, concrete confines of the Crabtree parking deck 2) bring along some tunes (and a couple of oversized bricks) and 3) sweat a little. #missionaccomplished
