And now, he's wrapped around her finger
She's the center of his whole world
And his heart belongs to that sweet, little, beautiful, wonderful, perfect
All-American girl

I met B in Mission Valley and we headed to the Sports Arena in San Diego. Parking there is ridiculious, they charge too much and the parking lot needs to be resurfaced. We park in a neighborhood and walk there. Takes about 10 minutes or so. As we got closer we noticed the stop lights were not working. The electricity in this area was out. We were going to eat dinner before the show. Lucky for us the electricity came back on within 5 minutes. We got in line at Chili's. They had emptied the restaurant when the lights went out. Now that they were back on, they were firing up the grills. We got seated fairly quickly and ordered the 2 for $20. Chili's is basically in the Sports Arena parking lot so we walked on over after dinner.
There was an opening act- Sons of Sylvia.
Ashley Clark – lead vocals, acoustic guitar, fiddle
Austin Clark – dobro, lap steel, vocals
Adam Clark – mandolin, acoustic guitar, vocals
All sons of Sylvia, their mother. They are kinda a country/pop crossover group.
oooh
what you waiting for
One More step and you're out that door
Oh what you waiting for
All we've got is love left to lose
Sons of Sylvia
Next up was Billy Currington.
God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy
Billy Currington
The boy has seriously curly hair and how does he maintain a 3 day beard all the time. He was good and I didn't realize all the songs I knew.
I Got a Feelin', Must be Doin' Something Right, Good Directions, People are Crazy, That's How Country Boys Roll and can't forget this one
I ain't much, On mowin' thick grass.
I'm too slow, For workin' too fast.
I don't do windows, So honey don't ask.
But I'm pretty good at drinkin' beer.
Carrie was up next and it was quite a show. Stage moving up and down, swing, change of wardrobes (many times), hologram duet with Randy Travis and a truck that was suspended from the roof and went out in the audience while she sang.
She also played guitar and piano and put forth a great effort. It is interesting to know that she is writing songs too.
He’s a good time cowboy casanova
Leaning up against the record machine
Looks like a cool drink of water
But he’s candy-coated misery
He’s the devil in disguise
A snake with blue eyes
And he only comes out at night
Gives you feelings that you don’t want to fight
You better run for your life
Carrie Underwood
It was a good concert and B was happy to see another A. I. Me sometimes I just go along for the ride, but this one was worth it.
