Tonight I was lucky enough to join my girlfriend Jilly for a night of boot stompin', beer drinkin', good ol' sweaty, fun at the Kenny Chesney concert out at Arrowhead Stadium.
After a horrible Friday night on call with 4 call-backs, I finally got home late morning & opted to catch up on some much needed sleep so unfortunately we didn't end up getting out to the stadium until around 5:45pm. The concert started at 4:30pm with Uncle Kracker opening up the show & Billy Currington following him.
Once we got there, we hung out in the parking lot drinking our lemony beverages & enjoying some snacks while waiting for Christine & Renee - co-workers from St. Lukes - who were joining us.
We had fun mingling with the folks around us & had to laugh at the "classiness" of one of the guys' t-shirt:
Once the girls got there we decided to take a quick photo & then head inside as it was SO incredibly hot standing out there in the parking lot.
We found our seats which were stage left on the 50 yard line, 2 rows up from the field & thought we had a pretty good view:
We made it inside just in time to see the Zac Brown Band & we all agreed that they put on a great show! We enjoyed seeing them sing "Toes" & the crowd favorite "Chicken Fried" & they even did an awesome version of The Devil Went Down to Georgia. They had lots of great energy & got the crowd up out of their seats dancin!
The unfortunate part about where we were sitting was that there was absolutely NO breeze & it was SO F'n hot! This is what Jilly & I looked like before Kenny came on:
Nice. We may or may not have been doing a lot of dancing!?
Next up was Kenny. He appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the stadium on a swing that carried him to the stage while singing his first number:
Oh how I ♥ Kenny Chesney!
He spent 2 hours playing a lot of his old songs as well as most of the songs off his Hemingway's Whiskey album - which is a REALLY good CD. I was however way bummed that he didn't sing my all-time favorite song "Old Blue Chair" :( Seriously cannot believe it....
For the encore ZBB came out & joined Kenny on stage & they finished out the night by singing a few classic's like Tom Petty's "Running Down a Dream" & Alabama's "If You're Gonna Play in Texas" which was an AWESOME performance:
Even though we were hot, sweaty & exhausted, I think the girls ended up having a great time!
Yee-Haw!

So sad we didn't get to hang out for this event. Would have been a blast!
Oh and you can totally see Nick in your two pics of Kenny's open number. Look for bright purple KSU shirt in the background. Too funny!
