After realizing earlier this year that dropping over $1000
on tickets and lodging for Stagecoach this year wasn’t the best use of our resources, Adam and I decided that we’d do the next best
thing- see the one bands that we REALLY wanted to see (practically the only
band performing at stagecoach that we haven’t already seen live), the Eli Young
Band.
After perusing their website we realized that they were
playing in Vegas the night after they were scheduled to perform at stagecoach,
and tickets were cheap- only $45 a piece for VIP tickets! We booked our hotel
reservations and bought our concert tickets that night.
The concert was better than I could have ever anticipated,
and we found ourselves enjoying Eli Young Band’s amazing vocal capacity from
the very front row! My hands were on the stage (when they weren’t in the air),
and it was like they were singing directly to me! To further amp up my
excitement, if that was even possible, at the end of the show the lead guitar
player and half the band’s namesake James Young reached down and handed me his
guitar pick!
After the concert Adam and I took a cab to Stoney’s for some
dancing. It was so much fun to put all of the things we’ve been learning in our
lessons to use, and I could tell Adam was super proud of himself as he spun me gracefully
around the dance floor!
We had a great time in Vegas together, a wonderful concert
experience, and a romantic weekend alone. What more could a girl ask for?
