The start of a weekend to remember

I got to leave work early on Friday so I could get on the road and meet up with my good friend Erin and head to the O.A.R. concert. O.A.R. is my favorite band. I love, love, LOVE them! It was at the Starlight Theater. A beautiful outdoor venue. We were a little concerned about the weather b/c there was a threat of storms. It did rain briefly which was great b/c it cooled everything off and made the evening that much more enjoyable.

As we were walking up to the gate, we were approached to see if we wanted a yellow wristband... that would upgrade us to VIP seating! As we walked in we were asked to donate a dollar and take a spin on some wheel that had various prizes. I won an O.A.R. t-shirt & Erin got to put her name in a drawing for backstage passes. She did not win, but we both had a blast. Here are some pictures.

The opening act - Citizen Cope. They were great!
And the timer... This was new!

We were about 10 seats back. Marc's voice sounded amazing.
And Jerry... Wow. I think he stole the show! At once point he jumped in the crowd and kept playing!
We are 2 very happy girls!
Loved all the different lights
