The Mac is Back

Oh Blahgs...

It has been awhile since I have done this... probably because I haven't been to any good concerts... until now that is...

Oh.My.Gosh. Fleetwood Mac was a-mazing! I can't even begin to describe how fantastic it was... Stevie Nicks is the epitome of cool. The whole time I was just thinking "I can't believe I am in the same room with Stevie Nicks." I just think she is such a free spirit that it makes her 10 times cooler. She doesn't even care that she is swaying around on the stage like Nell (you know.. that Jodie Foster movie... that's right).

As we were sitting there watching the concert Kyle said he'd be right back and came back with this for me:



I was so excited... it involves four of my favorite things: Penguins, top hats, Fleetwood Mac, and totes in general.... I love it so much!

On another note... we booked our trip to Vegas for Whitney's wedding! We leave August 29th and are staying at the Bellagio... because that's how we roll.

Next up concert? Sugarland!

**Sneeze**Cough**Ugh**

No, I'm not really all that sick, but I am a little under the weather so you need to feel bad for me... gah, some people are so inconsiderate.

Do you watch Rock of Love Bus? Well, I do and it is fabulous... this is my fave clip of the year so far....

PEOPLE WHO EAT BASIL ARE LAME!

OK, so Kyle and I continued my birthday celebration (from January 30th) last weekend by going to see Bonnie Raitt at the Riverwind Casino. Let's talk about why I loved this venue.

1. There are only 1,500 seats, so basically there isn't a bad seat in the house.
2. It's in an Indian Casino, trashy people to stare at as far as the eye can see.
3. No smoking in the concert hall... suh-weet!
4. Big cushy chairs, and since everyone there was old we sat down the whole time!

Bonnie Raitt was amazing, I wish that I could be that awesome when I'm older someday. Also, I want to play kickin' guitar solos.

On another note in my sickness I rented Beverly Hills Chihuahua... what?! Yep. Apparently in my "I'm just gonna pull stuff off the shelves" I ended up with that... and Madagascar 2. I'm not gonna lie though, Madagascar 2 was really funny. I haven't made it to Beverly Hills Chihuahua (or BHC for those of us in the know), but I will let you know as soon as I watch that piece of cinematic genius.

Last but not least http://www.theblogess.com/ is the funniest blog I've ever read, but if you don't enjoy the filthy language I suggest you run... far, far, away. Katie, you make sure to read it. The end.

My FAVORITE Thing

This is gonna be long... so be warned...

OK, so I realize that I talk about a lot of things that annoy me and things that I don't like, so today I'm going to talk about my absolute favorite thing in the entire world... CONCERTS! I am so in love with live music that it is unreal, if they would let me be a stinky roadie I'd sign up in a heartbeat, but I'm too lazy to be a roadie.

I plan my summer around concerts. I have been doing this since I was 16 years-old and could drive myself. I can remember going to concerts with my parents when I was younger and thinking... "Wow... this is the coolest thing I've ever seen." Of course, when I went with them we went to see their favorite people like Tanya Tucker, Garth Brooks, and who could forget the oh-so-wonderful Billy Ray Cyrus (HOLLA to the Cyrus Virus).

The first concert I ever got to go unsupervised was Edgefest in Tulsa... I was absolutely amazed and I had a blast seeing my absolute favorite band at the time (and they are still up there today): Weezer. We also got to see a million other bands that I couldn't even begin to name... but it was fantastic.

I wanted to talk about some of the concerts I have planned for this year thus far...



March 5th - Norman

Oh.My.Gosh... Could Bonnie Raitt be any cooler?

April 2nd - Kansas City

All eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus! You are allowed to judge me for this, but it won't matter because I think she is fantastic.


April 12th - Tulsa

Death Cab for Cutie is one of my absolute faves... Their songs give me chill bumps...
May 3rd - Tulsa

This is the one I am most excited about... Fleetwood Mac. If I could even be 1/1000th as cool as Stevie Nicks I could die a happy person.
I was going to post about my favorite concert experiences and my dream concerts, but this is super long and the one person that has actually read all of it is bored, so I will post that topic next time. Peace.
