Day 15 of 21

Unbelievable!!! Last Night Absolutely Rocked The Casbah!!! 

The Amphitheater At Las Colonias perched near the (not so) Mighty Colorado River hosted Tedeschi Trucks Band. If you are unfamiliar, I was too. Obviously I have followed along but this current tour is flipping top shelf!!! 

This production crew of theirs was motoring along like a fine well oiled machine. The hanging tapestry was a highlight for yours truly. The revolving light show was spectacular and I was completely sober. 

There are 12 talented members to the band and Susan and the boys orchestrated pure brilliance. She would belt out two or three tunes and then a back up singer would crush a tune or two in a way of saving her voice. These back up entertainers sang harmony , played the flute , sax , trumpet , slide trombone , symbols , and sang lead all throughout their performance. The two drummers clearly appreciate each others skill set. This group NEVER took a set break and played nonstop for 2 1/2 hours. Yes , they walked off for an encore of course but they committed to a tradition of excellence for a weekday concert. Floored 

As I stated above , I am well aware of Susan's awards , grammy nods , and marriage to Derek and all that jazz. But I had ZERO Clue about this tour or how visually stimulating the evening would play itself out for all of us. Very little expectations but rode away smiling from ear to ear. 

Breakfast - Soy based yogurt that was actually very tasty and no chalky texture. Homemade granola , coconut flakes , pumpkin seeds , Sunflower seeds , almonds , and cashews.  

Lunch - Spinach smoothie and the black bean burger from the pervious evening.

Dinner - ROCKED IT THE PHUC OUT!!! Followed this recipe for a Chickpea Tacos. A can of chickpeas rinsed ,socked ,and mashed with a fork. Zuke , onion ,chili powder , cumin , paprika , fresh garlic cloves , oregano , pepper flakes , freshly squeezed LEMON juice , molasses syrup , and an organic mango. Clearly I made up burritos instead of tacos and their nutritional facts read; 4.5 grams of fat , 0.4g of saturated fats , 0 cholesterol , 12g of protein , 9g sugar , 11g fiber , 503mg of sodium , 3.1mg of iron , 15mg go Vitamin C , and 1.5mg of Vitamin E. Talk about totally stoked and those flavors were outrageous. 

Stay Groovy,

Cheers
