George Strait & Reba

Thursday night Jason & I went to St. Louis to see GEORGE STRAIT in concert!!! It was A-MAZING!! LeeAnn Womack started the show and was great. I didn't realize she had so many good songs.

Next came REBA!! She was superb- I love her songs and she is quite the entertainer. Barbra Jean (Melissa Peterman) was there and they had a hilarious interaction and then sang the theme song together. She left without singing "Fancy"...what?!? only to come back out in a taxi while the beginning of the "Fancy" music video played. She got out of the cab in a red dress (of course) to finish the show.

After a short break it was finally time for THE KING! He began with "Twang" and put on a great show, singing some great 'oldies' and new songs! We were not disappointed by George, but I was disappointed that I was sooo tired (I guess we are getting old!). We left during what we thought might be the last song. The next morning I found out from a girl I work with he did 3 encores that we missed, one of them being "Folsom Prison Blues"! :( Even though we missed a few songs it was great and we got to see George in concert. The next day at work was a little rough, but we recovered by staying home Friday night.

My pictures were not the greatest...most of them contained random people standing up in front of me or were blurry from movement. I definitely want to invest in a new zoom lens after that night too! :) But here are some pictures from the concert! (not ones I took)

It was great! I had to go back & edit my post. They aren't my pics..since mine weren't great I stole some from someone else. We had plaza level seats, so not on the floor, but the first level of seats...probably 25 rows up!
