We drove down to Salt Lake with the Nielsens cause they all bought tickets, but their seats weren't near us. We ate dinner at Crown Burger before the concert. That seems to be the tradition.
So... Brandon won 2 tickets to the George Strait concert. And here we are!!! We got pretty good seats. :)
Martina McBride opened the show. I've always liked her and she was awesome to see. She looked and sounded amazing! ;)
The crowed was so loud when she was done... she seemed impressed... we all loved her!
Brandon and I are pretty anxious during the break... waiting for George Strait to come out!
Here he is... Everyone was on their feet and very loud!
Ol' George was getting after it.
Yeah. We're pretty freakin excited to be here.
He sang our baby girl's song... Check Yes Or No. I got this shot of him saying her name... "Emmy Lou".
He sang a lot of older songs... which was great. When we saw him in concert 2 years ago, he sang all different songs than he did tonight. That was pretty cool.
George sang 30 or more songs tonight...
He's saying goodbye, but we know better...
A ton of people left, but we stayed and cheered super loud. The name of the tour was The Cowboy Rides Away since he is retiring. The show can't be over until he sings that song, right???
...He came back to sing a few more.
I loved the energy in there when George came back. Everyone stayed on their feet the last few songs and was cheering like crazy.
This is when The Cowboy Rides Away....
{sniff sniff}
What an awesome show!
Thanks Cal Ranch for the tickets!
