What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

(sigh) He's back in town this summer, but thanks to our friends at Ticketmaster, when I got on at the moment the sale "started," the seats in the back were already pushing $200.

I'll have to live with my memories.

We are taking our daughter to her first concert in June, Dave Matthews and for three of us, for the cheap seats is over $600. Only concert we'll be seeing this year

Fortunately for me, I've seen most of these folks - many more than once. At least the older "Classic Rock" acts, so I have that. But it's kinda sad for me, because every time somebody like Carlos, or Mark Farner, or many others hit town, I know it may be my last chance to capture that old magic.

60° and raining in Rhode Island this afternoon.

Excellent choice Ken!
I've been on a Peter Green (Bluesbreakers/Fleetwood Mac) kick lately, I'm overdue adding some Santana back to the mix

Europa has always been a fav “mood tune” from back in the day. It never got much air play on AM radio because it’s an instrumental & it’s 5 min long.

Cool hat @DaveProc . It has style!
I got lucky with the little Abraxas angel pin.

I dig the details. I’ll keep looking for one of my own and I really appreciate you sharing yours.

The Newport jazz festival in Rhode Island is coming up. Hotel rates plus ticket prices are astronomical. Hopefully some of it will hit YouTube or be streamed.

Wish I'd checked that windcord before taking the photo.

Excellent bow treatment!

Thanks, Dave.

It's one of Randall's @Randall Renshaw finest!

A little baptism for the new-to-me Dalton Premier.

All these drizzle hats.....I our area it has rained EVERY Thursday since the first of the year....we have actually had a lot of cloud and rain since November.
My hat for the day was my old Borsa from last week....managed to doge the rain with only a few drops hitting.

As you can see underneath I am starting to sort the straws for wearing soon.......(though I hold off as long as I absolutely can, switching to thin and unlined felts first).

Sweet looking hat. I wasn't aware that DelMonico Hatter carried Lock. I hope to get to the store this week and take advantage of their sale.

This is the first Lock I've ever purchased outside of their shop in London. Demonicos has a very limited supply, and with the sale I thought I'd take advantage of it already being in the states.

I know some don't particularly care for modern Lock hats. I agree many are priced high, and I haven't ever shelled out for a $600 fedora, not even when I was buying in the 80s. I've always purchased their trilby line, caps and some summer hats (I have a packable Panama I love, and a linen summer fedora that is one of my favorites.) This rollable line of The Voyager Trilby is made of a really light weight rabbit, and it travels well and feels great in warmer weather. I really love them. I wish Delmonico would stock more colors. I need one in a light brown to go with my Burberry trench from the 80s that all my children are eyeing, haha.

Finally, there is absolutely nothing like visiting the Lock & C store. it is like walking into a time machine. It's worth the premium once in a while. I for one love visiting. Every time I'm in London I come away with a Lock hat or cap.

Absolutely agree about treating oneself to a visit to Lock & Co if ever in London. It's a must visit for any hat lover.

Even my, at the time, 13 year old daughter was impressed when we visited back in 2016.

Don't be fooled by the sunshine, it's been a mixed bag of sunshine and showers today. The Stetson Sovereign compliments my maroon blazer perfectly, but I am considering something else.

Borsalino, from Lock & Co, London.
It's difficult to capture the fading logo in these pics.

Faded but still visible, Rick.

A Borsa from Lock & Co: I'm more than a little bit envious.
