Wow, you've been to a lot of concerts! I've been to a few of those country concerts... My fave concert was Cher... don't judge :)
ReplyDeleteI'll be going to my 10th Jimmy Buffett concert in February, my first was when I was 4 :)
ReplyDeleteHands down favorite concert = AEROSMITH! Ah-mazing. No wonder they have been around for so long. And Steven Tyler may or may not have grabbed my hand ;-)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was Eric Clapton. and I love going to Cowboy Mouth.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite was either the Garth Brooks concert I went to last December or a Kenny Chesney concert I went to in college. I've been to non-country music concerts but country stars just always put on the best show!
