Fenway: An American Institution and Icon

I went to Fenway Park on April 23, 2014 just two days after the Boston Marathon. It was an awesome experience as the Red Sox beat The Yankees. And, we saw a Yankee Pitcher get thrown out of the game for use of pine-tar – what a dummy he was – right on his neck for the entire world (and umpires) to see!

Can you get any more iconic that this! I don’t think so – pure Americana!

Peter Yarrow and Me: Left and Right

Peter Paul & Mary - Folk Music

Peter Yarrow is one-third of the famous folk trio, Peter Paul & Mary. I’ve been a fan since the sixties when I attended a concert of theirs at The Hollywood Bowl. That concert was my first date ever. I was a young 15-year-old going out with a mature 16-year-old. I spent the entire concert working up the courage to put my arm around her shoulders as we sat, side by side, singing along to “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “If I Had a Hammer.”

Puff the Magic Dragon – Live from The Egyptian April, 2014

Peter Yarrow, of Peter, Paul & Mary, performed for two nights at The Egyptian Theatre on Main Street in Park City, Utah. This folk singing legend entertained each night for nearly three hours. He’s almost 76 and his spirit is as infectious and joyful as ever. Each night he closed the first half by inviting members of the audience on stage to join him in singing “Puff the Magic Dragon.” Here’s a bird’s eye view as I went on stage on night two. He gave permission to video and post the event – after all, he wrote the song – but I still cut the video in no more than 14-15 second pieces so as not to get dinged by YouTube – hopefully, I succeeded!
