Gary Allan!!!

*Sigh* I'm missing Gary like an ex boyfriend. That was the best night ever! I've listened to his songs for so long now but to be there a few feet away singing with him in Paul arms......*deep breath*.....it doesn't get any better than that. It really changes how you feel about the music. I've heard live bands before but it's not the same as loving the songs for years (as long as I can remember) and always wondering what it would be like to watch them sing it with all THEIR emotion and life experience behind it. Gary's songs are so real and raw anyway because they are mostly about "learning how to bend" after the death of his wife Angela. Those songs have gotten me through some dark days (none like his) but just the same I can relate to hurt on his face and in his voice when he sings. It's magic, and we're planning our next concert now. I will never miss another Gary Allan concert at Eufaula and can't believe I've missed the last ones. Paul is the best hubby ever! As soon as I found out Gary was going to be this close to the house I started to whine...LOL and just like he did for our Valentines dance in High School he said no. I believe his words then were" I'm not going to no dance" and his words this time were" I'm not standing in no crowd". Then, just like so many years ago, he hands me a card and tickets fall out. *insert bursting into tears* and the best feeling ever. My prince spoils me every chance he gets. I am so blessed to have him as my husband.
