Olive Garden or Keith Urban...MMMM????
So Friday night, we decided to go on a REAL DATE!!! We went to the Olive Garden to have my favorite Italian food but the wait was 40 minutes...and there was no place to sit.... so we decided to go and wait in the car. As we were sitting there at 7:20pm... we said... "Man, I wish we were going to the Keith Urban concert instead of sitting in the car and waiting for our table!" Shane said... "We could probably make it..." So, we turned in our buzzer and off we went!! We had no tickets, no cash and drove down to the strip! As we hurried in the 'Joint' at the Hard Rock... stomach's grumbling... we didn't eat ANY dinner.... we figured it was a long shot and that we could just find a place to eat somewhere down there if we couldn't get tickets! As we walked up to the arena... we were looking around for someone who might be selling some tickets... You know, the loitering man with tickets inconspicuously showing in his hand... Well, we saw him.. and he spotted us!!! The deal was made.. the $4.00 fee (ouch) was paid at the ATM and we were in!!! Kris Allen was already playing and we found a place to STAND.... There were no chairs in the concert- arena -place.... just separated sections and tons of people..... ! So, although we were wishing for some lawn chairs and food... as we had decided to forego dinner in behalf of the tickets....We were super excited!! Kris (who we voted for on American Idol) was great... fun to see/ hear in person- but we didn't know many of his songs! On the other hand.....Keith was AWESOME!! We love his music and we were surprised how long he played- 2 hours....and how talented he is on the guitar!! He played a different guitar for almost every song. He also came right in front of us when he moved to the center of the room to perform a few songs. It was so fun to be spontaneous and see such a great concert!! And even more fun to share it with Shane!! What a blast!!
