All I can say is WOW! We’ve been down in Miami all week, and it’s been a non-stop party.. But the Saints win last night was the icing on the cake! Now it’s time to leave sunny Florida, and head back to the sub-Arctic temperatures back home. :(

Congratulations to the New Orleans Saints for a well-deserved win!

Kenny Chesney Coming To Las Vegas!

Country superstar Kenny Chesney, who said last fall that he’d be playing only a handful of one-off shows in 2010, announced plans for a couple of spring and summer Vegas engagements.

The Joint, located at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, will host Chesney for a pair of two-night stands: May 14th & 15th, and July 2nd & 3rd.

“The beauty of The Joint is that not only is it a great rock-and-roll room, but they’ll let us get up there and play … and play … and play,” Chesney said in a prepared statement. “We have so much fun, because we can throw in all kinds of stuff we don’t get to play in our regular show, and the audiences are diverse enough that no matter what we throw at them, they know the songs!

“That’s what’s so great about a gig where the capacity is 4,000, especially at The Joint,” Chesney continued. “It’s the best of both worlds: you get the energy of a club, but it’s still enough of a stage that you’ve got room to run around and have fun. Because when we do these smaller, less structured shows, we like to let loose without tripping over each other or getting tangled in someone’s chord.”

The Vegas Kenny Chesney tickets went on sale this past Saturday, and they sold out in record time!

Chesney’s usually playing huge amphitheatres every summer, so the change of venue should make for an interesting show – A must-see for any true fan!

Virginia farmer finds remains of missing Metallica fan

The skelatal remains of 20-year-old Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington, who went missing in October after attending a Metallica concert in Charlottesville, VA, were found Tuesday morning in a farm field about 10 miles from the John Paul Jones Arena, according to state police.

Police said Harrington’s remains were found by a farmer while he was inspecting fences on the remote, 700-acre property in the Blue Ridge Mountains foothills. Police confirmed the woman’s identity today.

According to reports back in October, Morgan Harrington left the venue during a Metallica concert, and later called her friends inside to tell them she could not get back in, as the venue doesn’t allow re-entry during shows. She told her friends not to worry, and that she would try to find a way to get home. She was never heard from again.

Police are treating the case as a likely homicide.
