I have never seen those guys do a bad show and this was no different. Although I have seen better crowds. Everytime I stood up, I
had someone yelling at me to sit down. The first couple of times I stood up all on my own without any encouragement from the
stage. Eddie Montgomery quite a few times through the show tried to get that crowd on their feet, but yikes, no way. I can't help
but feel bad when those guys work so hard and the majority of the crowd seems content to just sit on their hands. Finally at the
end of the show as they were getting set to do MY TOWN, Eddie, seeming a bit mad at this point, said "if you can't get on your
feet for our veterans then.... " I'm not sure what he said after that, since I was screaming so loud at that point.
They did four songs off their soon to be released album. They opened with GONE. They did a great job with the Brooks and Dunn
tune IF IT'S THE LAST THING I DO. I absolutely love their latest single IF YOU EVER STOP LOVING ME, and I love it even
more live. The last song they performed from the new album was YOU DO YOUR THING. My favorite parts of the show are
Scarecrow, All Night Long, Hillbilly Shoes, Hell Yeah, and my ultimate favorite-- MIDNIGHT RIDER. And oh yeah, that guy,
he was looking hawt. Just ask Jen. I accidentally kicked her when I first saw him walking to the stage.
To end with, every trip I’m on, my friends feel the need to pick on me. This trip was no different. One of the first things
Nikki had to say when we picked her up was “it’s always good to have Ally on a long road trip, this way we know that weâ
€™ll have a fire escape. Then on Thursday, Nikki wanted to stop at a Burger King; she was felt like having a Big Mac for lunch.
Always with the Mickey D’s joke and over-packing, but hey, at least I know I’m loved. There’s a lot I left out of
this. One reason could be since it took me so long to write it. Another reason could be that I’m busy trying to get packed for
my next trip. Then there’s one more reason, the fact that I don’t remember much. I’m sure the girls will all add to
this. If there’s one thing I can count on, it’s that.
Until we do it again. Oh and maybe next time, I’ll have something to say about Kenny’s show.
