KILLERS!!! - Blogged by JME

So. . . .way back in May, after I learned that N8 would be gone for a whole year, I invited my lil bro to go with me to a Killers concert that was about 5 months away. I thought it would be nice to have something to look forward to that would make the time go by faster. Well, time goes by very fast because the concert was just about 2 weeks ago. It was a really nice time. First, we went and had a bite to eat at the Olive Garden. . . . MMMM . . . So good! I had the Steak Gorgonzola-Alfredo (totally recommend that one) and my lil bro had a pizza! We shared a Torta di Chocolate. It was to die for. Then we headed out to the concert. N8 and I are big people watchers, and to my delight, I learned my lil bro was too.



I'm used to going to hard core concerts with N8, like Shinedown, Social Distortion, Caroline Spine, and Cold, just to name a few. I don't normally like concerts like that. There are a lot of people packed into a tiny space and then everyone starts moshing (spelling???). You get everyone else's sweat and beer all over you and get pushed around and grabbed. People fighting and vulgar language flying. Not my idea of a fun night out. This concert was my type of concert, however. People even brought their kids. There was a general admission section on the floor, but we had seats. Not that it mattered that much. The people on the floor didn't even mosh. It was a pretty calm crowd. I don't think I got pushed once. It was a little embarrassing, however, because hardly anyone up in the seats where we were danced or jumped or really got into it. They just stood and watched. I couldn't help myself and was all by myself dancing and having a good time.









The only bummer about the whole night was that way back in May when I bought the tickets, I didn't realize that Women's Conference was the same night. I felt bad that I missed it. Thank goodness for the internet and the church website so I can go back and watch it!!!

This was so fun to see them perform this live. This is one of my favorite songs. It was the second song they played at their concert. At the concert, the singer wore the shoulder things he is wearing in the video and even saluted like he does in the video. It was really cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, I just have to think of something else to look forward to in the coming months that might make the time go by faster. Thanks, lil bro, for going with me. It was his first concert and he was so fun to hang out with.
