Five Finger Death Punch, often shortened to Five Finger or Death Punch, also abbreviated as 5FDP or FFDP, is an American heavy metal band from Las Vegas, Nevada. Formed in 2005, the band's name comes from the kung fu movie The Five Fingers of Death

I don't know about you ladies but these late night cocktails are making my jeans snug, How about some hiking

Heavy metal... ugh! I will surely be putting on my headphones to block out some of the sound and save my hearing. I will also be opting for being as far back as I can to let the true fans get right up to the front to enjoy the proceedings.
Lyn, your suggestion of a hike is right up my alley. I need to walk and it is the best way to explore a place... I don't even know this place. Apparently, it is a suburb of Atlanta.
So the day was filled with hiking, and some good food and coffee, of course and then back for a good long swim before getting ready for the concert.
Here is one of the band's numbers... scary crowd.


I think my ears where ringing afterward even with the headphones!

30 Day Blogging Challenge:- Bakersfield, California


Lyn says:
We're taking an early flight to Bakersfield. Hope you can sleep on the plane. We're seeing Keith Sweat, Jon B and High Five.at RABOBANK ARENA (1001 Truxtun Avenue, Bakerfield. Ca.) http://www.rabobankarena.com/events/detail/keith-sweat-rewind-fest-2018 Sorry, no high end hotel tonight, We're at the Hampton Inn. http://hamptoninn3.hilton.com/en/hotels/california/hampton-inn-bakersfield-centr... There's a lot to see here. I'm going to let you decide. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attractions-g32037-Activities-Bakersfield_California...

I need a little zing today. It is my... what you call it now... my EX-Anniversary. And I am trying to let it go and just enjoy myself - in real time I am doing much the same - going to a writing group in downtown Burlington for the morning. In virtual time... California will be a great change as we zig zag across the country again. None of the bands are familiar to me, but I am going to remain open to the experience.
The inn is sweet, not overly ostentatious... so I won't feel guilty enjoying the town instead of feeling like I need to get my moneys worth in the hotel. I just need a place to rest my head.... and a pool is always a bonus.
I did manage to sleep on the plane. Last night's concert was everything I had hoped. The songs are still humming through my system and I can't keep the upbeat smile off my face. I think many of our group are feeling similarly. I decided on a gentle day. I took a walk along the Positive Mental Attitude Trail at the Park at River Walk.
