Interesting Weekend


So I've been so excited for the past few months because I bought tickets to the Kenny Chesney's Poets and Pirates Tour. I love going to concerts but I haven't been to one in a long time. Brian and I both like all kinds of music, but we both love most country music. I asked off work months ago so I worked Friday and the concert was on Saturday. My throat was killing me on Friday at work and so I got Strep test done. Of course it came positive. I called the doctor and got meds and went home and went to bed. I was trying to talk myself into feeling better. By the time Friday night came around Brian was trying to call around and sell the tickets. No takers. So Saturday morning came and he was then calling to see if we could just give them to somebody! Still nobody could go. Who wouldn't want to see Kenny for free? So I got up and took a shower and told myself I was going to be ok. I didn't want to waste $200. It's a 3.5 hour ride to where the concert was and it started at 3:30pm. I tried to sleep most of the way up there and when we got there I was feeling ok. Then the concert started and a girl was singing that I didn't know and then Gary Allen sang, who I didn't know his name, but I knew his songs. Then Sammy Heagar started and that was it for me . I went a slept in the car so I would make it to the end. I missed Keith Urban but I got to see most of Kenny Chesney and he was awesome even though I was out of it. We had to leave early cause I got sick to my stomach and almost didn't make it to the bathroom. I'm sure I looked drunk so I guess I just fit in with everyone else. Brian almost got in a fight cause towards the end we traded our floor tickets for higher ones and these drunk people were dancing and almost kicked me and they were blocking our view. Security asked them several times to move and then the last time Brian had enough and yelled at them. Then of course the drunk guy had to get in his face. Anyway, I guess nobody got hurt so that was good. I didn't feel like bailing anyone out of jail so I told Brian that if he got into a fight he was going to spend the night in jail and I'll go to a hotel! Brian did have to tackle a guy when he was walking me to the car. He was apparently running away from security so Brian decided to help. It brought back good memories for him when he worked in Security. It wasn't quite the experience I was looking for, but I guess I'll always remember it!
