Date: May 7, 2010
Time: 8:00 PM

I absolutely love the music of both James Taylor and Carole King. For them to come to Portland, Oregon together is most definitely tops my list concerts of the forever! They were very influential to my years growing up in the 70s and 80s. They styles and lyrics made me feel good and that is always the best kind of music….the stuff that makes your heart soar or speaks to a place deep inside you. There are not many musicians able to do that to me.

If you’re in Portland, get Carole King and James Taylor tickets today because they are sure to sell out quickly. If you’re not from Portland, either get here, find tickets in your area or it sucks to me you! ;)
