Took over 3 hours to ged to Gilette Stadium- we arrived and were routed to the VIP lot, barely 300 feet from the stadium! We got to our seats as Pat Green came out. (Who? Yeah I said the same...) so we were baking and headed up into the concourse for the shade, breeze and the souvienier stands.
(Sugarland I hope y'all are listening...)
No 3XL shirts???? Anywhere???? Travesty. Settled (I collect autographs so take the work settled with a grain of salt) for a Sugarland CD signed by Jennier Nettles and Kristian Bush.
Got back to our field seats as Sara Evans came out- she sang her caboose off! She was great- half her band is family.
Went back to the concourse with the wife so she could ged a potty break (she wanted me along for trouble- someone got their faced punched in her last trip to the bathroom). Got back just in time for Sugarland...
They rocked- they absolutely stole the whole damn show- a ball of energy for the whole 45 minutes they were on.
They went off, 20 minutes later, Brooks & Dunn came out, they were good- I made a comment about Ronnie Dunn looking more and more like the cryptkeeper
which my wife told me to stop. So far, we had dodged the large thunderstorms that popped up all around us...would our luck hold out for Kenny...?
Sure did, in fact the moon came out halfway through his set (full moon also) he was good- my wife made a comment that it seemed like he was on something- he kept licking his lips and he wastalkingveryfastlikethisanditwashardtounderstandsometimes. (Found out that its a side effect of anti depressants to make like he was)
I do have setlists, but I dont have them handy, if ya want em I'll post em.
July 29th, 2007- The Police.
