On Friday, Febrauary 25 I took Logan to his 1st concert....he loved it and I'm so happy I got to expierence his 1st concert with him.
I took him to see Jason Aldean in Knoxville at Thompson Bowling Arena. Ever since Jason Aldean released Big Green Tractor, Logan has LOVED the song...of course, at the time the song came out he loved anything and everything that had anything to do with tractors. Anywho, he loves the song, like knows every work of it and has for a long time. He even sang karaoke to it at Kelsie and Lewey's wedding back in November of 2010. I had always said if Jason Aldean came to Knoxville I would take him, so I bought us tickets as soon as I found out he would be there.
Logan wasn't really sure if he wanted to go or not. Mom had told him a while back that concerts were boring and so he was on the fence and honestly, I wasn't going to push him to go, because we weren't that impressed with the concert when we saw it in Chattanooga. Anyway, he decided the week of the concert that he wanted to go and by Friday he was really excited. I met mom in Monterey to pick him up around 1 pm, took him to get his hair cut, and then went to Brandon and Blake's to meet them! So....it was me, Logan, Alan, Brandon, Blake, and Joanna......crazy crew! Logan loves being around everyone so he was already having a blast.
We stopped at Smoky Mountain Brewery to eat in Turkey Creek before the concert. We missed the Jane Deer Girls, which I'm was NOT upset about. Eric Church came out right as we were getting to our seats. Most of the time Logan was looking pretty bored during Eric Church so I was a little worried that he was going to be bored during the whole show. When he sang Love Your Love the Most, (mustuard on my fries is what Logan calls it) Logan stood up in his chair and sang. Then when he sang these boots we convinced him to take his boot off and hold it up in the air. All the ladies around us got a kick out of him all night long! The whole time Eric was playing he kept asking when Jason Aldean was going to sing.
Once Eric went off stage and they turned the lights on, he just kept asking when Jason Aldean was gonna come on stage! Then the next questions he asked a million times was....what I thought his 1st song was gonna be? Honestly, I can't remember the 1st song, but I do remember that he knew the words to almost every song and he had the biggest smile on his face. He would sit down after each song thinking that he wouldn't know the next song and that he wouldn't wanna stand up to sing it and almost everytime he was up singing. I do know that he was on cloud 9 when Big Green Tractor came on! He stood up, was dancing, playing the air guitar, and singing EVERY word! I LOVED it! He had worn a cowboy hat and had taken it off. For whatever reason, when Big Greeen Tractor came on, he immedietly said I need my cowboy hat....it was so cute! Anyhow, Big Green Tractor, Crazytown, and Hicktown were the 3 songs he really loves and wanted to hear. He sang Big Green Tractor and Crazytown and then went off stage. Logan sat down in his seat, put his cowboy hat in his lap and fell asleep. I knew he'd come back on stage and he did. Hicktown was his last song and I woke Logan up a couple of times to see if he wanted to wake up to hear it, but he just pushed me off....it was 11:30 at this point so the boy was TIRED! I stood up to sing along and watch, turned around to talk to Alan and then I felt a little tug on my arm. Logan had woke up, was back standing up in his chair and singing along! It was a great night!
He is already asking when the next concert is and when we can go back to another one! I am so excited, I think he's gonna love live music as much as I do. I can't wait to take him to another one!
He fell asleep as soon as we got into the car. He spent the night with us and Saturday we got up, did a little shopping, went to the park, came home and painted wooden dinausours, went to eat chinease, and then went to see Gnomeo and Juliet in 3D. It was such a cute movie and actually held Logan's attention the whole time, which is hard to do. Plus, Alan even said it was good! After the movie, we went by Wal-Mart to get some things and ended up buying a Kinect for the xbox. We spent the rest of the evening playing it!
Such a great weekend. I love that little guy to death!
