I posted this blog on my myspace a few months ago and forgot to save it somewhere before I got tired of the hoopla that is myspace and cancelled my account. Anywho, I'm a live music junkie. Luckily, I have friends and a hubby who are not only as into it as I am, but they help feed the fire. The list of shows I've seen is a fairly extensive one, but this is all I can come up with at the moment. If anyone can think of anyone I've left off of the list, please remind me...I know there are more than what's listed here. In no particular order...
Chicago
Eric Clapton (Twice)
Robert Cray
Derek Trucks
Jonny Lang (The young kid who opened for him was AWESOME. His band didn't make it to the show in time, so he had to go on by himself and I do have to say that he was pretty impressive. Can't remember his name, though... :( )
Willie Nelson (Twice)
Merle Haggard
Bonnie Raitt (Met her - got the picture to prove it; I can die happy now…)
Paul Brady
BB King
Bobby Blue Bland
Jimmy Buffett (**Fins UP** "Fins to the left, fins to the right, and you're the only bait in town...!")
Bob Seger
The Doobie Brothers
Maroon 5
Don Williams (Twice - dude's huge...there's a reason they call him the 'Gentle Giant.')
Kevin Fowler (I've lost count of how many times I've seen him…met him a couple of times, too. He's funny as shit.)
Cory Morrow (Again, lost count…met him a couple of times, too. Seems like a nice guy...)
Pat Green (2-3 times??)
Cowboy Mouth
George Strait (A number of times...)
Brooks & Dunn (Lost count; got to meet them (I can die happy now) – they're freakin' tall!)
Brad Paisley
Alan Jackson
Randy Travis (With the Houston Symphony behind him, at Christmas time. He's pretty gosh-dern funny...and talented, of course.)
Lee Ann Womack
Kenny Chesney
Robert Earl Keen (Lost count on how many times...)
Cross Canadian Ragweed
Johnny Cooper
Django Walker
HoneyBrowne
SheDaisy
Billy Dean
Trisha Yearwood
Jim Gaffigan (Comedian)
Clay Walker (Seen him a couple of times; met him, too…)
Trick Pony (Met them; Heidi's hot…)
LoneStar (Lead singer was rude... :( Maybe he was having a bad day...but still...he was rude to a group of kids (3 boys; ages 8-10ish) trying to get his autograph and that stuck with me.)
Lyle Lovett (Saw him give more of a small 'backstage concert' when he got trampled by that bull, or whatever…he still had the halo on his leg.)
Dave Matthews Band
Live
Journey
Foreigner
Toby Keith
Shenandoah
Keith Urban
Storyville
Southern Culture on the Skids (They have a song called '8-Piece Box' during which they throw fried chicken at the audience. It would be an understatement to call this group 'interesting.' The bassist (kindof hot, funky chick) was wearing a Peg Bundy wig while the lead singer was wearing red, polyester pants with a gray shirt that read, 'To hell with your mountains - show me your (Busch beer logo).' Pretty funny sheet, mane...)
