Carrie Concert- 1 year ago today

Carrie isn’t touring this year so I am going to have to spend the year reliving the amazing shows i was lucky enough to attend last year.          A year ago tonight, I was in Connecticut for Carrie’s first concert of 2008.  The show was the first date of her Carnival Ride tour and  I remember everyone wondering what the set list would be?  What the stage would look like?  and if she and Keith Urban would do a duet?  The show was amazing and hearing all of the brand new songs live for the first time was great.  Carrie’s rendition of “I know you won’t” left me in awe!!!  Here are a few pictures from the show, and a short video of Carrie singing “Twisted”

Football, Grammy’s, and The premiere of Lost

How the hell did the Arizona Cardinals end up in the Super Bowl?  I definitely did not see that one coming. The Steelers and the Cardinals is not exactly a dream matchup, but I am sure like 100 million other Americans, I will be watching… 

During the Steelers game they had a commercial for the Grammy’s and they announced that Carrie Underwood will be performing.  This will be Carrie’s 3rd year in a row to perform.  I love it!!!  I am sure that the fans of other country artists hate it, but…. To get ready for the big night, here is a video of Carrie’s Grammy performance from last year.

This Wednesday “Lost” is back on the air.  It has been too long, and incredibly I won’t be home to see it.  I have TiVo set to record, so hopefully I’ll be seeing it when I get home.  Now I just have to make sure that no one tells me what happens, before I see it.  There aren’t many shows that I can’t miss but “Lost” is one of them, right now I guess the only other one if “Friday Night Lights” which just started again last Friday. Unfortunately, I am pretty sure it is going to be cancelled after this year.  for some reason, people just don’t get it.  If you haven’t seen it yet, do yourself a favor and check it out. Here is a link to a website where you can watch episodes.  http://www.nbc.com/Friday_Night_Lights/

First blog

This is my first blog, and I have no idea what I want to say lol...
I guess the idea of this blog is to have a place to talk about the world around us and to communicate my thoughts and ideas. Most of what I will probably be talking about is pop culture, music, tv, movies, books, etc... I am a huge country music fan, especially Carrie Underwood. I am sure many, if not most of my blogs will have something to do with Carrie. Right now, my bank account is trying to recover from my traveling all over the country to see Carrie in concert last year. Last year alone I saw Carrie in concert 22 times. I saw shows in 8 states (CT,NY,CO,TN,NH,CA, NM, and FL). I was lucky enough to see Randy travis invite Carrie to be a member of the Grand Ole Opry and I was there the night Garth Brooks took part in inducting Carrie into the Opry. Hopefully I will have more to say in future blogs, I guess we'll see.... I think I will end my first blog with a couple of pictures of Randy inviting Carrie to join the Opry, and of Carrie's induction night!!
