Yes, this is another way that I am showing my age! We went to see Celine Dion last night in concert and can I say it was one of the best I have seen. She did such a great job! I have always loved her music and most of all just really appreciate her talent as one of the best vocalists of our time. It was even more amazing to hear her in person! I will start off by saying that we have had the tickets for a year. I dont remember if you guys remember me blogging about it a year ago, but Brad bought tickets online after I saw a commercial about her coming to Nashville. He knew I really wanted to go and it was so sweet of him to get them for me. He wasnt too excited himself about going, but being the good husband that he is took me anyway! We laughed and laughed because as we were walking around downtown trying to decide what to eat before the concert we noticed that we were amongst mostly middle aged and older people! Oh well, I didnt care. I am about to turn 30 and own a mini van so what is one more uncool concert going to do to me? Ha! I felt better when we got to our seats as there were plenty of young people around. I made sure that Brad took note! I think he actually enjoyed the performance a little more than he would let on. You know its the macho thing! LOL He told me that if I ever wanted to go back and see her though that I would probably be taking a girlfriend with me. The opening act was a guy out of Vegas who had a great voice and impersonated all of the stars. He was hilarious and we have decided that if we ever to back to Vegas we must stop at the "Golden Nugget" and see him. It was pretty funny because when we went there this past March, we went to the Golden Nugget because we were told you have a better chance at winning in the small casinos. Well, it was pretty much a dump by Vegas standards. However I would go back to hear this guy. Anyway we had a great time and I can only wish that I can look like Celine when I am that age! Thanks to my Mom who came down and spent the night with Connor so we could have a night out. We had a great time and got in pretty late for a school night! Ha! By the time I got to bed it was 1 and had to get up this morning to work. Now that is when I really felt old!
Brad wishing this was the real reason he was at the Sommet Center!
Here is the shot that I took when we walked in, just look at all of the grey hair! Ha!
Aww, and the cheesy "hold the camera out and take your own picture" shot!
Now I know what you are thinking...Our tickets were good but we werent this close to the stage.
Now maybe if I keep running my two miles a day, I will look like this. Hmm, I am not convinced.
