"Let the music play.."

Went to my first Dave Matthews Band concert Friday and it was awesome! It's not just a show, it's a major event. People tailgate for Dave. It's a really amazing experience. We made it up to our lawn seats and had a decent view of the stage and waited for an hour or so until Dave came on.




It was the most amazing feeling, being there. These guys are such amazing performers and makes that ticket you bought worth every stinkin' penny..sadly my camera happened to run out of batteries(fail) on the way up and we were running late as it is so I did not get to take pictures. My iPhone camera was also an epic fail..it could barely make out anything during the show..



Again, amazing..here's the playlist from that night:

Funny The Way It Is
So Damn Lucky
Why I Am
You Might Die Trying
Crash (Into Me)
Typical Situation
Spaceman
Burning Down The House
Seven
Squirm
Jimi Thing
Shake Me Like A Monkey
Alligator Pie
#41
Dancing Nancies
You and Me
Time Bomb

Little Thing (tease)

Thanks to the DMBSetlist app on my iPhone. :) They added every song as the show was going on. Really great. I actually do look at it occasionally..I think it's cool to know what they played at their shows the night before. :)

I wish they would have played older stuff..our favorite album is "Crash" and I also LOVE "Under The Table And Dreaming" but they played "Crash Into Me" and I won't lie..I got a little misty. But that's really the song I HAD to see live. And I did. That's a check off the bucket list..If I kept one of those..

I then spent the weekend with my mom and step-dad and also had some time with my Aunt Tracy, Uncle Chris and my little cousin Claire from Cali. It was so wonderful to be back home. It's strange, for a while I hated going down to Fort Lauderdale but I suddenly love it again. I think that's mainly because my mom is there!

My friend Krista and I had a fun photo shoot today. She's aspiring to get into photography as a side business in the future so she practiced on me! I am honored to be her first model but it certainly won't be the last. Here's a couple favorites(she only posted 7 so far..can't wait to see the rest!!








You will just have to wait for the others!!


Tomorrow I will be doing voice practice, and some guitar! Hoping to make progress and build calluses! Never thought I would hope for calluses..bleh..

Hope you all are enjoying your week!

Twelve years in the making..

Okay so I reread the last two entries and while they are vital to you getting to know me..they are pretty serious, sort of cheesy, and all around long and maybe even boring. But again, necessary.

So I’m over that. Time for me to just write about what I love: music, love and life. :)

Tomorrow night..twelve years in the making..I will be seeing The Dave Matthew Band LIVE! Why has it taken me so long? Well, my mom wouldn’t let me go with my sister when I was younger because she was afraid I would get contact high.
Okay, maybe that was a joke.

But now my wonderful husband, who is also a huge fan of them, bought us tickets. And we are going.
I can’t wait!

Oh yeah and the concert is back home and we have a hotel room for Saturday night! I am all for mini-vacays(even if it’s only for a short weekend)!

I will take lots of pictures and tell you all about it as soon as I can.
Praying that little tropical depression stays far away.
This girl needs a day at the beach.

In other news, my wonderful friend (and future amazing photographer) and I are going to be doing a photo shoot next week.

New blog, dreams to follow, photo shoots ensue!

I also have begun writing a song that I am really loving I will post some of the lyrics soon! Yay!

That's all all for a day or two..wishing you all a fantastic weekend!

Love. Love. Love.
