I wish I knew more about music.

Sure, I consider myself aware of a lot of the foundations of music. I know there's something called "chords" and "key changes" and "time signatures" and "rhythm" and "melody", but I've never studied music seriously.

Maybe that's why Rick Beato is an inspiration to me. I have embedded other videos by him throughout this blog and my presumption is always that he knows what he's talking about when he talks about music. His comments about The Jonas Brothers in the video below strike me as being spot-on.

Perhaps the best impact on this specific video is the comments the video received, three of which are shown below:

Two Nights in IL, 0 in IA

True story. When Megan was in elementary school, one day she asked me if I had heard of The Police. The reason for this inquiry was because one of The Jonas Brothers had been seen by her wearing a The Police t-shirt. I remember this question because until I knew that at least one member of The Jonas Brothers had at least familiarity with The Police I had never given The Jonas Brothers even a breadcrumb of credibility. Of course, whether the member who had on that t-shirt can actually name a tune by The Police is something I don't know or want to know. I'm content to believe a respect for The Police exists. Who knows, maybe there is love for this tune by The Police?

The purpose of this post is to document that the Jonas Brothers are flying over Iowa on their current tour. As shown in bold and italic below, they play in St. Louis, drive through Iowa to get to St. Paul, then east to Milwaukee, then south to Chicago, then across Iowa to get to Kansas City. They do come back to the Midwest long enough to play Omaha, NE, on my 50th birthday.

No, I won't be in Omaha, NE, that night...
