Ha! I don't know about that. Wifa is a coconut raised in NC, ironically, she has more family in Mex than I do. I am a reverse coconut. When I think of CDMX, I think of home. Wifa thinks of Man on Fire.

Unlike RGV AG, though, my wife probably would have signed up to run drugs for the cartel if Mexico City was the only date Rush was playing and it meant she got to go.

Now that hurts! As mentioned, the wifa saw Man on Fire and started talking to some of my cousin's wives at a wedding where they waaaayyyy over exaggerated things and that sealed my fate with her opinion.

We lived in Managua for several years when my daughter was young, and my wife was fine with it except that she never got comfortable driving. The wifa is, and clearly looks, Hispanic and I think (actually I know) that causes a lot of the angst as she doesn't speak Spanish well, she actually speaks what I call "Spankee". "Spankee" is what I have heard Yankees trying to speak Spanish sound like. She was fine with Nicaragua as there were so many bilingual folks there and she could always get by in English, but in most parts of Mex that isn't the case.

Oops...apologies...didn't mean that as a knock on you or wife if you took it that way! More of a "my wife will do pretty much anything to see these guys on tour" right now.

Hope you and you friend have a blast. All these recent posts are getting the excitement level ramped up for me!

No not at all, I understood. I just wish my wife would have the appreciate for good music to join me in seeing Rush. I didn't join her seeing Duran Duran or Sting, so turnabout is fair play. Longtime runny buddy and I, who are both big fans, gonna make this show and have some fun in Mexico City.

For whatever it's worth, in Australia and New Zealand, coconut is a derogatory term for Pacific Islanders.

Of course many Pacific Islanders also use coconut as a term of affection for their people in the same way that certain people in America use A (uh) instead of the hard R.

Y'all have got to check out these premium experience packages.

There's a $5,000 "2112 Platform" option. (WOW!)

I'll let y'all know what that looks like if I can spot it from my seat. I'm a big fan but $5k? That's more than my first car cost.

Nigel Powers was right about the Dutch.

Consider looking at it like this-
That's still about half what it costs just to get in the door to see Game 3 at MSG on Monday.
