All About Tonight

Pretend this post was from September 28, 2013!

Once again, 5-Hour Energy hooked us up. Mom has some great connections through the NASCAR world to the country music world. We have been lucky enough to meet Blake Shelton and attend his concerts numerous times.

The story started back in 2011 when Blake Shelton was in Grand Rapids for a concert. This was right before The Voice started, so he wasn't as big of a star as he is now. It was a relatively small outdoor concert, and he put on a great show. We were able to get backstage passes and ended up spending a few hours after the concert hanging out with Blake Shelton and his manager on his tour bus. We had such a fun night, and it is a story that I'm sure we will all tell for years to come.

Almost exactly two years later, we were lucky enough to attend his concert at the Palace. This was a much larger venue, and he was the headliner. A lot has changed over two years. Chris was unable to attend the concert with us as he was going to Vegas early the next morning (boo-hoo). So my great friend Lindsey tagged along with me as my date! We took a limo to the concert and really lived it up. We were able to go back stage again and chat with him before the concert, but you could quickly tell that it was a completely different ballgame now than it was two years ago. Now he is a Big Star :) Once again, he put on a great concert and we had a wonderful time!!
