I took in Diana Ross last night at the Seminole Hard Rock Live arena and casino. She’s definitely not my cup of tea, but once again it was free. Her band was great and all the Mo Town and disco hits were well delivered. She kept things interesting with many costume changes of outlandish gowns. However, she only played for an hour and twenty minutes. I’m glad I wasn’t a die hard fan who paid over $100 per ticket. There was no opening act either.

With some time to kill after the show, my friend Rich gave me $50 in free plays on the slots. I’ve never gambled before, except in NCAA basketball pools, and really didn’t find it very exciting. Between us we managed to cash out $205 from $200 in free plays. With this free money I bought a Treasures of the Hard Rock Cafe book from the gift shop. At least I got something tangible, since I don’t think I could take losing real currency.

Tomorrow night we are set for John Legend and Corinne Bailey Rae. Free of course.
