Let me know if DLR can still do the splits.
Now that would be impressive, a guy in his seventies doing the splits.
Enjoy the show!

The lights dimmed, the crowd roared, the sky opened up and mere mortals parted the ways as guitar chords echoed throughout the ACC. David took the stage with his usual screams that became his signature trademark known in every song and every verse of the earlier Van Halen songs. Eddy demonstrated his true guitar God form as he made his instrument talk to David during a small breathing break in between songs. He began to respond and then completely mimic every word David spoke during their amazingly comical feet of musicianship. He completely impressed all fans that attended that night. Alex, although looking very ragged, played impressively with very little breaks and also demonstrated a precision for the percussions that marveled us in his solo. Little Wolfgang (Not so Little), played along with the band but showed a quiet side in his band-mate’s shadow. Maybe Daddy’s fame is too much to grasp at this time but he did hold his own with the show.

It was a Great Concert. Something I would recommend as I rank it in my top 10 concert with Pink Floyd, Alice Cooper, David Wilcox and Rush.

David doesn't do the splits anymore but still operates the silver bow and can kick the side of his head with great ease. That explains allot.

They are coming to Vancouver.... Do it!

Bochsler Family Update

By
Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...

Remembering Sean

By
The remaining Barrys. This picture was taken at Sean's funeral. Sean's absence is definitely felt. The last time I saw Sean, was about a year ago, the end of March '06. My husband, Brian and I showed up unannounced at his place and he graciously entertained us. If he had other plans, he never mentioned them. My brother, Brian has a pub in Camrose, AB. Sean apparently would stop in daily and drink coffee, wanting to stay in touch. Brian had a new year's eve party a couple of month previous, so I asked Sean if he'd gone. He said no, he'd quit drinking and realized that a new years eve party would probably not be conducive to achieving his goals. He'd also recently quit smoking. I remember thinking that was a lot to give up all at once, but of course didn't want to say anything to discourage him. Sean also had a dream to buy himself all new camping gear and go on a camping trip. This he did at the end of the summer. After achieving his goals, his heart gave...
