Totally Gutted...

I had tickets to go and see Melissa Etheridage in concert in London on Friday 17th and now I am not able to go.  Talk about devastated!  To say that I am a fan of Melissa’s is an understatement.  I even bought new jeans for the occasion. Now I have to try and sell them, not the jeans, the tickets.  It is not about the money it is about Melissa and what her music means to me and thousands of other women.  I know she is not a saint but who among us is?  The fact remains that she is a fantastic entertainer who just happens to have most of the lesbian population wrapped around her finger.   I am not a real music person but when I first heard Melissa and listened to those words that I knew came from real experience it just hit me and it stuck.  Through the years I have been a fan there has always been a song for what I was feeling.  Through my relationships and their eventual endings to the new beginnings there always seems to be a song that speaks to me.  Also, the atmosphere at one of her concerts is incredible.  The pride you feel being there with all of those woman is awesome. I will always be a fan and I hope that I will get another chance to see Melissa.  If you are lucky enough to have seen her I hope you took away something special for yourself as well.
