This past week has been a crazy one for me on many aspects. To start off January 31st was the Toby Keith concert. It was my first country concert, however not my first. I had an amazing time with the group of ladies I went with. I attended the concert with my sister and her best friend, and one of my best friends as well. My sister was the only one who had been to a country concert and told us we would have the time of our lives, and that's what we did. Not only did we see Toby Keith but Jason Aldean another one of my favorite country singers. Jason opened the show with and set the bar high, i was thinking to myself how is Toby going to beat that. I thought to soon because Toby literally opened with a bang! Toby performed all of my favorites and so many more. The concert was amazing and everyone not only my group had an amazing time. The fun thing about going to converts is knowing you have something in common with everyone there so its very easy to start conversations with them. There were cowboys and cowgirls all around. We even dressed up like cowgirls. I stood by a older lady who was a spitting image of Dolly Parton, and got a picture with her. The other awesome thing about being at this concert was it was being filmed for one of Toby's upcoming music videos and to be on CMT(Country Music Television). We Happen to have floor seats and were in the last row of the floor seats so the cameras went past us a couple times. We are all hoping we are part of the music video or just on CMT. Either way it will just add to how much fun the concert was. My favorite part of the concert was when Toby came back out for an encore, where he sang his two songs to the men and woman serving our country. It was very touching to me because I know a lot of men and a few girls who are doing their duties and I feel honored to be a part of their lives. They are doing so much for me so I wanted to do something for them. I called each one of them and just held the phone up, its hard to say if they could hear or understand it but I got a few calls later that night from my friends saying thanks and that I actually had tears from one. That made me feel good knowing that they know I care for them and so greatly appreciate what they are doing not just for me, but the country. After Toby sang his last song the concert was over and so was my night. We left the LaCrosse center feeling like we had shoved cotton in our ears. We couldn't hear a thing for a good hour, bu tit was well worth it. Not only couldn't we hear but we couldn't feel our feet after six hours of standing and being in cowgirl boots. Overall this was one weekend and one concert I will never forget. Until next time. :]
