Let’s ROCK!

Bon Jovi played last night to a full house, and a large house it was. The boys can rock. It looks like four of the original members are still there, and they all know know their stuff. It was of course a big-budget show, with lots of nifty toys and screens and lights and robotic arms.

I ended up with an inordinate number of photos of Jon Bon Jovi’s ass. I swear it was because of where we were sitting, a quarter behind the stage, but I suppose I can’t complain, either.

A career on the road has finely honed their crowd-pleasing skills. Jon even stripped onstage to don the Penn State jersey.

I took some video, but while the visual is fine (including the aforementioned shirt removal), the sound quality is abysmal. So here, have a professional video instead.

Right then. String.

This “Giant 3D loom” looks more like a braiding machine to me, but it’s fascinating nonetheless.

It’s making ultra-high-end carbon fiber car parts. Is that not cool?

    – The Bon Jovi youtube video was fun. It’s nice to see “old rockers” can still make angst music.

    Another thought: Jon’s mouth is as big as Mick Jagger’s or Steven Tylers…other old rockers. Hmm……

    I posted some more photos and another angsty video. But I think now I need to find a video with the 80s hair, don’t you?

Welcome!

I’ve been doing stuff with string for quite some time, and describing it to others online since 1996 or so at Phiala’s String Page.

I also do some science and write some fiction.
