Yes, I wrote a post about Garth Brooks. Stop judging.

I was around 10 when I went to my first concert. Backstreet Boys, baby. My dad walked me around the lobby while the opening act performed. Sisqo. My parents weren't really all about their 10 year old listening to a song about thongs, and I appreciate it. I'm pretty sure I didn't go to another legitimate concert {I dated a guy in a band my freshman year of high school. Go ahead, get your laughs in} until college. And even then they were shows at the Varsity or House of Blues.

In the last two years I've gone to more concerts than I've been to in my whole life: Brad Paisley, John Mayer, Michael Buble. All amazing shows. I drooled over John the entire time. It helps that I only paid to go to one of those three shows, ha.

But there is one person who I would pay outrageous amounts of money to see in concert.

Garth Brooks

I would pay so, so much money to sit in the nosebleeds of one of his shows. He's such an amazing performer and from the youtube clips I've obsessed over {WHY are there so few?!}, he seems to put on amazing shows. A little piece of me dies everytime there's a Garth show and I'm not there.


He's been my favorite since I was a child. People in grade school used to tease me for liking Garth Brooks, and I would defend him to tears when they called him "Garfield Brooks". I was a passionate child, and kids are mean. I'm getting all worked up thinking about it. While my friends were jamming to SClub7 & O-Town, I had ole Garth & the Beaches soundtrack in my CD player {what?! why was I such a weirdo?}
I knew all the words to "Ain't Goin Down" by the time I was like 6. My mom got the box set of his CDs for Christmas one year and I stole it {hi mom!} I have an embarrassing {except I'm not embarrassed} amount of his music on my iPod.

Ok, ok. I'll stop. I can tell I'm making you uncomfortable. Someone please come to Vegas with me to see him. Please?!

So, who's your dream concert?

  17. I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of your website?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way
    of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for
    only having 1 or 2 images. Maybe you could space it out better?

  28. Great blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?

    I'm hoping to start my own website soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you suggest starting with a free platform like
    Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I'm completely confused .. Any recommendations? Bless you!
