Eric Church concert 12/19/2009

As part of our Christmas present to each other, Brian and I drove to Huntsville ALABAMA to see an Eric Church concert at a little venue called Crossroads.  If you haven't  been to an Eric Church concert, you're really missing out.    First of all, Eric is not that well known on a national scale (compared to say, Tim McGraw).... but when you go to his show there is not a person in the house that does not know every single word to every song he plays.  And, he doesn't just play his songs routinely... he plays the with passion & really rocks the house. 


  We got to Huntsville around 6:45, doors opened at 8, he came on at 10.....  People were already lining up in the cold waiitng to get that spot right by the stage.  We, on the other hand, were hungry and opted for food first.  We still were able to get a spot we wanted, on the upper tier of the venue by the railing right by the stage.  We posted up on stools and had the best seats in the house.  We saw some fights (between two plus sized women), made friends with probably the only bouncer I've ever met with an electrical engineering degree, and enjoyed the show.....




And, a roadtrip isn't complete without a stop at Wal-mart on the way home.... at 2:30 in the morning.  I can't decide if the emptyness of Wal-Mart so close to Christmas or the old man in a red onesie pajamas buying his weeks supply of groceries were the best part of that experience.......
