Do I Have To Come Down From My Cloud?


Wow! The concert was sooooo good on Saturday! A friend and I waited in line for 4 hours, when when the gates opened, we ran and got a front row spot THEN we had to wait another 4 hours until Rascal Flatts came on. During the wait, it started to POUR! I took off one of my tops and used it as a shelter for us. I guess a reporter for the local paper thought that was a pretty cool photo, so he took our pic, and put it in the paper! After 1 hour of rain, it dried up and the sun came out and wow did they put on a good show. Despite a few audio problems early on, they did their best and made it all worth the wait! My fav band member is Jay Demarcus and he was paying attention to me most of the night. There were even parts of a few songs where they pointed at ME, and I was in la la land. Half way through the show I started crying and he saw me and gave me a nod to acknowledge his appreciation. It was incredible. Then at the end of the show, he knelt down and tossed me his guitar pic! I screamed (yes I was a little crazy). It is even engraved with his name on one side and "Rascal Flatts" on the other. I cannot believe something like this happened to ME. Like I said in my earlier post, I've never had the opportunity to wait in line for great seats before (especially not for my favorite artist), so this meant so much to me. Even though I saw Rascal Flatts last year in a huge arena, nothing will top this personal experience.....which leads me to say "do I have to come down from my cloud?

Yay....It's Here!


I ordered the crazy Tom Cruise biography from the library a few months ago, and I completely forgot about it. Well, they called today and it has arrived.

Now I have a good read for my Saturday waiting in line for the concert!

I am so interested to find out if Tom really is as crazy as people say he is.....I don't doubt it.

99 Hours To Go!


My Fav band in the whole wide world is finally coming to our small town.
Yes...it's true....RASCAL FLATTS WILL BE PLAYING AT BAYFEST!

I've had my VIP tickets since they went on Sale April 15th, and I plan on getting to the park early on Saturday morning to be first in line. Even though these are VIP tickets (only a maximum amount of people allowed in this section, so it's not too crowded) I still want to be right up front against the stage.

I've never been one to line up for events or go crazy to get a good spot, but for these guys, it's worth wasting the Saturday sitting on the grass for 8 hours with my crossword book and ipod.
I know I'm not a 14 year old teenie bopper anymore, but this Saturday.....I'll fit in quite nicely with all the other girlies waiting in line....
