Jason Aldean Concert


As most of you should know already I am a country lover. I love love love country music, and hope to one day travel to Tennessee. I'm a country girl at heart with my cowgirl boots and my denim cut off shorts. I know you're probably wondering how I pull that off in New Jersey, but I do... of course, with the help of country concerts! Sal was able to get tickets for the Jason Aldean concert, featuring Luke Bryan and Lauren Alaina.


I was ecstatic, and when we got there I couldn't stop smiling. A few conclusions I've come to by the end of each artists performance:

Lauren Alaina is adorable. I didn't realize she was that young, because she has such a powerful voice! I haven't really watched American Idol, probably since the Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood years, so I didn't know much about Lauren except that she sang country, and sang she did. I would go to a concert if she was headlining it, without a doubt. 


Luke Bryan... well there are a few words I have in mind when I hear his voice, or name - hot. Okay, so maybe just one word comes to mind, but he's one hell of a country artist. I would really recommend anyone to go see him. Not only is he a great country singer, he's a great performer. It's sad to admit that Luke stole Jason's show, but it's true. The way he moves up there on stage and gets the crowd involved - seriously he's amazing. 


Jason Aldean is a great artist, don't get me wrong... but I have to admit I'd see Luke Bryan and many more artists before I see Jason Aldean again. He put on a great show, but I only know a few of his songs, and don't see myself learning any other ones. Maybe that'll change but for now that's how it is.

So the concert was spectacular. At one point, Luke Bryan and Lauren Alaina brought two people on for a 'shake it' dance off, brought a baby on stage, and even gave cups of who knows what [most likely whisky] to fans! I couldn't believe it. Half way through Jason Aldean's set, he came to the middle of the Izod center, along with Luke Bryan and played a few songs together. They were only a few rows ahead of us, and I couldn't believe it!


The lack of good pictures is due to me losing my camera charger and therefore, not being able to bring my camera. These were all taken on the Iphone... some are better than others. Oh I did find my charger though.. it was in the garbage, woops!


While they were performing, everyone got as close as they could. These girls behind Sal and I, had to have been about 10 years old were enjoying the show with their grandparents. They left them to get closer, and when they came back they were in tears. Luke Bryan saw them in the audience, took them backstage and signed everything he could for them, gave them hugs, and I'm sure took pictures with them. Even though they were only 10, I wanted to jump them and steal every single Luke Bryan signature. Okay, okay, I didn't do it, but I was thinking it. I was extremely jealous. I mean I could have pretended I was 10 right? I don't look too much older than that anyways.

I have to thank Sal for taking me to yet another country concert. It was so much fun, and I loved every minute of it. Hopefully this summer is filled with many more country concerts!
