{Peace.Love.Music}

I am one of those people who always make New Year’s resolutions and rarely keep them. For some reason, year after year, I continue to make them…I’m just a list maker, I guess. This year one of my goals is to go to more concerts (they are not all so frivolous and self-centered) because I absolutely love live music, but I never want to spend the money. This year I decided to suck it up and spend money on experiences rather than things. My first concert of the year was about a week ago with my roommate (I guess I can call her that since her belongings still live with me). We saw Brad Paisley with Darius Rucker and Jerrod Niemann. They put on such a great show! Obviously, the headliner was Brad, but my favorite was Darius for sure! He sang a few of his Hootie songs and closed his set with "Purple Rain". It was IN-credible!

Kait and I at the concert.

A few days later my friend called me and said she was too sick to go to a concert and asked if I wanted her ticket. I didn’t know the artist, but I thought it might be fun. I am now one of Ben Rector’s biggest fans! His music is so much fun to listen to!!! He’s been my running companion for the past week while I’m training for a half marathon…more to come on that later though. So anyway, check out Ben Rector if you have time. You will love his music (if you are female). Also, check out the guy who opened for him, Steve Moakler. You will love him too (again, if you are female). Next up is Matt White…if it’s not sold out yet. I’m so glad Workplay didn’t go under. This is going to be a great spring for music AND I get to stick to at least one of my resolutions. Yay!
