This is Country Music...



And we do. :)

On Thursday night I got to go to the Brad Paisley concert at Sleep Train Amphitheater! Let's just say it was AMAZING! Brad Paisley is such a great singer/entertainer. He has songs that are so real and romantic, and then just really silly songs that just make you laugh. It is why I love him so much! I would totally go see him again. 


We got to the concert a little early, and decided to be rednecks and drink beer in the parking lot even with giant signs that say no tailgating. Woops. :) 


Once inside, we just hung out and bought some souvenirs, and of course took as many pictures as we could while we had some time to kill. 

    

And then the performances start. Easton Corbin was first up, and was so good! He only got to play a couple of songs, and I really wish he could have gotten to sang a few more. He sang of course his big hit "Lovin' you is Fun", and his first hit "A little more Country than That". He also sang some new ones I hadn't heard before. Justine, one of the girls I went with, is absolutely in love with him, and is generally a loud person. She obviously screamed super loud when he was announced, and the couple sitting near us was a little older, and also sitting sort of close so the guy got a nice earful of her scream. He seemed to be joking and commented on her lungs, and they both seemed to laugh it off. But then his wife, sternly looks over at her and says "Could you not do that again?" as if she was upset over it! I looked at her and let her know that this was a concert and that people were going to yell. She was just so RUDE I wanted to hit her. Maybe my beer had kicked in or something. haha.

Up next was one of my favorite groups, The Band Perry. Man were they good!! They sang so many songs, and they were really entertaining. They did a couple of covers which was super fun. They were a really good set up for Brad Paisley, and Kimberly Perry is just SUCH a good singer! 

And then of course, the main act himself was up. And he just rocked it! He is interactive, and fun, and really knows how to please a crowd! He even came out into the back of the seats to perform because he said that is where he used to sit, so he understands not being able to afford the up close seats. What a guy! There was no sitting during his performance, but instead there was dancing, clapping, singing, and a little bit of foot stomping. This is why I love country music!!! 

And to end the night off with a bang, we stayed after the show to get to meet Easton Corbin! We got a picture as well as an autpgraph!! So exciting and cool! And he isn't hard on the eyes so that was a bonus. 

The night was overall amazing and I loved every minute!
