I tried to kick off my weekend a little early last night by seeing Eli Young Band at Prospectors. They tore it up! Great band, photos to come... There's just something incredible about Texas Country music!

Have a fabulous Memorial Day weekend!

Love live country music

Luck with the concerts lately... not so much. Let's start with the Gary Allan show on March 5 @ the House of Blues in Atlantic City... we were going to get some tickets at the door - SOLD OUT. We heard it was a great show too.
Then... last weekend to go see Eric Church at Prospectors & oh yeah, SOLD OUT. What the heck?!
So this week I was listening to Cat at work and heard "Caller number 7 wins Josh Turner tickets" and I started dialing, and it rang ~ yipee!! It was great to win tickets after my good run of bad luck. I feel lucky, really lucky. Can't wait for the show! Josh Turner has the sexiest voice ever ;)

Speaking of live country music...

And for the heck of it, there is a benefit this Saturday at Prospectors called Officer Down. It's a fundraiser where the proceeds benefit the families of deceased and permanently disabled law enforcement officers. $10 in advance, $15 at the door. $2 drafts, 6pm doors open, 3 hour buffet. A night out & a good cause all in one...

Dancing tonight... but not for me

So it's already Saturday night... which means another night of line dancing in Cape May. The last 3 weeks have been fun & the great part about dancing down there is that there's plenty of space to dance! The convention center has such a giant hardwood floor, it blows any NJ bar out of the water.

I'm going to be going through a little dancing withdraw because I can't make it tonight... my coworker won Trace Adkins tickets for tonight in Atlantic City and we are going to be meeting this Dangerous Man... Anyway, we get to meet him. Trace is her McDreamy or McSteamy, her George Clooney, her 'the One!'. I'm so excited for her to meet him tonight! It's great - and to make it even better, it's her birthday weekend... Happy Birthday Caroline! Despite the dance less weekend - it's gonna be a great one :D
