Kicking it country

We had ladies night on Friday when the younger daughter (left in pic below) and I hosted a good friend and her daughter for the Morgan Wallen concert at the AT&T. 

I'm afraid it's a testament to my aging that I thought the music was kinda loud and the flashing lights were blinding at times. I was grateful for the big screens that zoomed in on Morgan as he moseyed around the stage belting out his hits. He was concert ready in an old pair of jeans and the sort of heather gray t-shirt I wear when I work out.




Don't get me wrong, the singing was great. We were close enough to feel heat blasts from the pyrotechnics. And the lighting/mood changes from song to song were cool to see. 

 





I was only familiar with a few songs for the two opening acts. Then Morgan kicked off his part of the show with one we all knew, as he and the piano ascended to stage level in a cloud of fog.


However, we all enjoyed singing along to some current country staples like "Whiskey Glasses" and "Chasing You". Back in the day, I could boot scoot with the best of them. Now I'm lucky to figure out the lyrics to what they're playing on the radio these days!
