Siinging again

And speaking of concerts, tonight it's Brad Paisley, Chris Young and Lee Brice. Can't think of a sexier line up. (Unless Tim McGraw, Blake Shelton, George Strait, and Toby Keith were to tour together.)

And they aren't just eye-candy. They have all got some serious vocal/musical talents. But sometimes you just have to step back and enjoy the view ... :)

Sigh ...

One of the things that we do every year is buy what's called the Country Mega Ticket. It's all of the country concerts at the local amphitheater. This year it was 8. The last concert was Luke Bryan, Eli Young Band, and Kacey Musgraves. EXCELLENT concert.

We chat with the folks who bought the pairs of seats on either side of us. This concert the spousal unit and the husband of the couple to the left were having a little more fun than usual.

Singin' Like a Biird

Sugarland concert last night ... AWESOME!

Opening for Sugarland was Canaan Smith (@cannansmith). Fresh blood on the music scene. Not quite as country as I would have expected but good. He dressed like "The Kid" right down to the skater shoes and saggy pants.

Then came Lauren Alaina (@Lauren_Alaina). The 17 year old "Georgia Peaches" songstress was a bouncy peppy bundle of vocal chords and charisma on stage. She brought a young man from the audience on stage with her, gave a shout out to her mom who was in the audience, and seemed to be having a GREAT time singing and dancing. Unfortunately I didn't manage to catch a good picture of Lauren and the guy from the audience.

Then came the headliner - SUGARLAND!!
(@SugarlandMusic, @KristianBush, @JenniferNettles)

They were much fantastic! The tour is called "in Your Hands" since they were taking requests via Twitter , text voting, and signage. One of the songs they sang as a request was Tennessee. Jennifer brought onto the stage the young man who made the sign requesting it.

Some of the other songs they did:

• Stay
• Little Miss
• Settlin'
• Baby Girl (with a local girl who did an AWESOME job)
• Incredible Machine
• Sugarland
• and lots more, even a little George Michael (Faith)

All in all, a wonderful night.
