Okay so if you don`t know by now I went to see Brad Paisley in concert tonight. And it was FREAKIN AWESOME! I had so much fun. I did end up going by myself, but it`s all good, I had a terrific time. It`s great getting to see singers sing live. It`s so loud, and the music just moves you. The shows were terrific.
The first dude, Justin Moore, no clue who he was, but he did good.
Next was Darius Rucker, Hootie from Hootie & the Blowfish. Man that guy can sing. I saw him last year when he came with Rascal Flatts. He sang the same set of songs, but I`m not complaining! I love most of his songs. Reminded me of when Kim & I went to Rascal Flatts, so much fun! Oh and he did end again with Purple Rain, Kim!
Then there was Brad Paisley. He rocked the place. Funny to say about Country music rockin the place. But honestly, it was a terrific show. There were a few mishaps with his show though, and it was hilarious!
With the second song called Online, he couldn`t get his guitar hooked up to the amp, so Brad & his stage hand were working on it feverishly. They got it fixed.
Then he forgot the opening words to one of his songs. Just drew an absolute blank. LOL The band kept on playing the opening of the song until he remembered the words, he was asking his band and the audience what the words were. LOL
Then he started to sing a song, and was looking for a name that rhymed with Edmonton.... and he just couldn`t find a word that rhymed with Edmonton, again he was asking the audience for a word that rhymed. Got frustrated, in a joking manner, and just gave up. LOL
And yes Mom, Brad sang that song we talked about. So beautiful & moving. Gave me shivers listening to it.
All in all I loved the show. Brad Paisley isn`t my favourite Country singer. We all know who is. But honestly after tonight, I am going to upload some more of his songs. AND the fact that the ticket was only $20, well not exactly true, after taxes and Ticketmaster's sneaky fees it came to $32. something. But still. For an evening out with live music and I had a terrific time.... I mean come on! It was so worth it!
And a big thank you to my terrific son Ayden! Without him, I couldn`t have gone. So thank you my awesome 15 year old son. He really opens doors for me that otherwise would be closed. I just don`t, won`t and can`t trust anyone else to look after my youngest, AND he really does know his brothers best :)
I am so lucky to have the opportunities I do have, and I`m looking forward to many more! Speaking of more concerts, we are going to the Wiggles in 11 days! I am really excited to see them live again too! They put on such an awesome show. AND I get to take my boys, nothing better than spending family time together, and doing something my boys will always remember that is family fun!
YAY all of us! :)
