I saw Josh in Virginia a few years back and since I got to Alaska at the end of 2005 I have been trying to find a way to get him up here for a concert. It
seems like so many musicians schedule concerts all over the world stopping in Washington then hitting California or moving on to Canada before flying over the
top of Alaska to head somewhere else. However, they never seem to want to stop here in Alaska to give us a show. I just wish he and other acts would give us a
chance.
We don't get a lot of concerts here and we are mostly stuck with hockey in the winter. Hockey is okay but there is only so much a person can handle. The last concert I can recall that came here and caused a stir was Elton John and he created absolute havoc when tickets went on sale and the show was fantastic. Believe me, we appreciate the attention we get here when a musician or band puts on a concert because we are so completely forgotten by seemingly everyone. When someone thinks enough of us in Alaska to come here and put on a show we do feel special and, in turn, show our appreciation.
