Milwaukee Bucks 2010 Playoffs | Is There A Chance for the Bucks?

Milwaukee Bucks 2010 Playoffs are still a possibility. John Salmons was traded to the Bucks on February 18. In return, the Chicago Bulls get Joe Alexander and Hakim Warrick. Milwaukee also picks up a pair of second round draft choices.

John Salmons was literally out of place for most of his first night on the court for Milwaukee. He was getting some serious on-the-job training from Bogut, Jennings, etc. He didn't have a good night, but sank a very important three-pointer with just seconds to play. That score put the game out of reach. Salmons ended the night with 19 points in the Pistons game, and sent Detroit packing.

The next night, he scored another 19 points, and Brandon Jennings did the same. The Bucks are in the midst of a three-game win streak. They have the eighth spot in the playoffs at the time of this post. They are selling extra Bradley Center tickets for the upcoming game, just because of the win streak and Salmons acquisition.

Turner Hall St. Vincent Show Milwaukee

St. Vincent played the way you would expect a touring band to play, tight, perfectly, easily. They performed at Turner Hall last night, and I must say that the crowd was receptive, and polite. It took about six songs to pass before some dude shouted "We love you Annie." That was followed up by "Marry Me." Ok, one drunken jerk to my left was not going to be a buzz kill. He stopped generating laughter after the third "WOOOOOO."

Annie Clark gave us the usual "we love you Milwaukee," and "thanks Milwaukee." My favorite was when she said "Milwaukee is the gem of the Midwest." That's when my friend turned to me and said "It's February."

The band played all the songs from their second disk. Ms. Clark sang a couple solo numbers, one being an Ice Cube cover. Their encore numbers included a song from her first disk, but by that time I had been standing for almost three hours. It was time to move to the back and soak up the atmosphere of the entire venue.

We stuck around for a chance to get autographs. The drummer, wearing a sport coat and bow tie, was kind enough to sign my disk, even though he was not on it. Finally, the violin player came out and I managed to get him to help me with autographs from the rest of the band. It was totally worth the wait. They play the sold out Metro tonight, in Chicago.

Black Eyed Peas General Admission tickets Bradley Center

The Black Eyed Peas general admission tickets at the Bradley Center on March 11 are the way to go. I planned to get a seat for that show, only if I could get on the main floor. The catch is that the main floor for the show is "GA." There are no chairs on the Bradley Center Main floor.


After thinking about it, I'm happy to stand all night long. If people are going to stand anyway, why not get the chairs out of the way. How many shows have you gone to where you stand all night long? I can't think of any show where I didn't stand for most of the night. Even a show like Harry Connick has crazy fans that want to stand all night long. Aren't the fans going to dance all night at Black Eyed Peas?

There are times when the artist has the first few rows of the venue pulled out for one night of dancing. That's also a great idea, but the issue is that the people with chairs right up against the pit get upset because everyone is standing in thier way. Some folks will never be satisfied. Did you ever go to a show where someone is yelling "sit down" from behind you. They need to get a life.

Rascal Flatts Bradley Center Show | Milwaukee's First Big Show of the Year

Yes, when February rolls around, we're well into the new year. It's cold, dark and snowy in February. Milwaukee Bradley Center fans could use a break. Look no further than Rascal Flatts on February 26th.

Milwaukee Brewers Opening Day 2010

It's snowing right now. Groundhogs day is upon us, but I don't believe in the predictions. What I believe is that the Milwaukee Brewers Opening Day 2010 game will be with a closed roof at Miller Park. If you glance at this Miller Park seating chart, and scan over to section 112, that's where I will be seated for opening day.

When I was a kid, I used to get to leave school early, and go to the opening day games. Now, I have to try to get the day off before my coworkers grab it. It's a struggle. Two guys that I work with have gone every year for 20 years. They have a standing order to keep them off the work schedule, so they can see the Brewers on opening day. Most times, we can sneak out and head to Miller Park after the phones stop ringing.

Aaron Rodgers Represents Green Bay Packers in Pro Bowl

I managed to catch one of two Aaron Rodger's touchdown throws. Yea the defensive line just pretends to rush the passer. It was still pretty cool to see a few more throws before heading into the off seasn. When the Green Bay Packers schedule comes out, then we will have something to write about here. Until then, I'm a big fan of the Milwaukee Brewers.
