Our night out with Josh Ritter

My man took me out to a concert last Tuesday evening. I was really looking forward to it. I mean who wouldn't be? A night out with my guy and the music of Josh Ritter - one of the greatest songwriters around. Bret and Brandi watched the kiddos for us and we headed to The Granda Theater for the evening. We met up with Michael and one of his former students and Jacob and Melissa. We even got to be at the very front, right up against the stage. I've never done that before so it was a totally cool, new experience. A little hard on the neck and you don't hear everything the way you should, but it was really awesome to be that close. Well, minus the dumb drunk girls next to us who kept trying to hit on young Mr. Ritter. He played magnificently and smiled the entire time. Seriously, he smiled the whole time. I guess he's a pretty happy guy. We had such a great time and my appreciation for his music has only grown. It was so great to spend the evening with Chad - we don't get too many of those these days so I cherish the ones we do. Thanks for taking me out, sweetness!! Here's to the next show!!

See. Smiling.

We scored some T-shirts (gotta get the t-shirt), some vinyl and the setlist complete with sweat.

It was a really fun show!!
