It was Friday, the 10th, and me and My Beautiful Girl were coming back from the beach, in Pula, were we had our vacation for few days, and we got caught in a heavy rain, because, when I saw the big black cloud coming, while we were lying on the beach, I figured, in my eternal wise mind, that the cloud will go away.
Well, it didn't.
We caught a bus, so we wouldn't have to walk for another 20 minutes in that rain.
Weather was really bad, trust me.
We thought it wouldn't stop.
And we were preparing to go to a concert, that was happening that night in open air.
I thought: „Well, it's not gonna happen...“
The rain eventually stopped, but the clouds were still surrounding us, and it was kinda scary.
But, nevertheless, we got dressed for the concert, and we went there.
With a camera.
CAMERA.
“No, no, you cannot take that in with you!”
“OK, but what can we do?“
„Leave it in the car“
„But, we don't have a car.“
„Well...“
And than that blank look, you know, the look that only people from security have...
So I ran to our home, for those few days, and left the camera, walked for a mile and got a Coke, and I did all that in 10 minutes.
I was soaking wet when I got there, and My Little Bird, said „Well I'm going to get you a handkerchief“.
I needed like, 20 of them.
She went, came back in ten minutes, sat on the ground next to me, and said : „Can you see how the rest of the people dressed“
I started fainting out. I knew what's going on.
She was in a amazing black dress, and all of the rest of the folks were wearing jeans and shirts.
So I said, through laughter, and hoping it'll all end up like a joke, „Do you wanna go home a get your jeans?“
She said( silently )„Well...maybe, we have like 30 more minutes.“
As you can guess, especially if you're a guy, she went.
Twenty minutes passed.
Some guy and some girl appeared and the guy started singin' „Guess things happen that way“.
I was trying to get in contact with My Girl, but She was on the phone.
The guy that was singing was M Ward, and the girl was Ravi Shankar's daughter.
My girl appeared while talking to her best friend on the phone.
I hugged her.
Everything was OK...
And somebody said when he saw her “Is this Norah”?.
And believe me, people , My Girl is much more beautiful than that…
He played couple more of more songs with her, like Willie Nelson's „Permanently lonely”, and “One life away”
And then she left the stage to, hm , get dressed, who would have thinked :0)
And then he played one instrumental, and an amazing version of Bowie's “Let's dance“
It was amazing
Then the concert we all waited for started. The people from Czech Republic were singing next to us. Not too loud, luckily, most of the time...
Anyway, the concert was great, started with Norah on guitar playing new version of „Come away with me“ and finished with „Don't know why“
More about the time we spent in Pula later...

Yes,Blog-B, it was a night to remember...
And I didn't say anything about the trip to Pula, which took us 15 hours, and it's only 600 km.
Man...
M Ward was great, One life away is one of my favorites along with Poison Cup, of course...
At the end of the concert, they played,(cause he came back to play with Norah) Creepin' in-you know that song from Norah's Feels like home, that she sings with Dolly Parton? Well, M Ward was Dolly, and that was quite funny...
But, Let's dance was just...man...harmonica solo on the end with a lot of reverb...Really great concert.
