Kaaboo, Jackson Browne, and Tom Petty

 We went to the Kaaboo Festival in Del Mar on the 17th.  It was an all day music festival (actually, 3 days but we only went one day) that included a lot of nice art,  good food, and nice drink.  The people watching was fun too.  Some of the people were painted on canvas.
 Some of the sparkle gets lost in a still photo, but you get the idea here.
 My beautiful wife.
 We mainly came to see Tom Petty, but decided to go early enough to see Jackson Browne also.  We were not disappointed.  In fact, I enjoyed Jackson just as much as Petty.
 We may have missed it, but I didn't hear him do "The Loadout / Stay".  Perhaps he didn't have anyone with him who could hit those high notes.

He did do Running on Empty and it sounded great.
 Tom Petty was very popular - it was packed!  A well behaved crowd.  It seemed to me he was still having a little trouble with his voice at the beginning, but it came around and the concert sounded great.
It was his 40th Anniversary Tour and we're not sure now many more times he'll make it around, so we made sure we saw him this summer.  Rock On Tom.

And now for a few videos we took that day...
