The Dierks Bentley Experience



Dierks was AWESOME! What more can I say? And once again, guess who didn't take any pictures? That's right. I brought the camera but left it in the car because I didn't think you could take pictures at an event like that. I am very angry with myself. None the less, the concert was awesome. Lee Brice opened the show. The only song of his I recognized was "More than a memory" which is actually sung by Garth Brooks. I don't think Lee Brice sings much, I think he just writes. Anyway, he was pretty good, but the microphone was up really loud and you couldn't understand what he was saying. Next up was Bucky Covington. He was one of the finalists on American Idol a couple of years ago. And the only song of his I recognized was "It's good to be us". Bucky was kind of a weirdo. And again, the mic was too loud and you couldn't understand the words to his songs. He was also trying to "dance" along to his own singing. The only way I can think to explain his "moves" is he looked like a mix between Kermit the Frog and the 6 million dollar man. But then finally after 2 hours of Lee and Bucky... it was time. Dierks opened the show by singing "lot of leavin left to do". Did I mention that he was awesome?! That man is an entertainer! He ran all over the stage while playing his guitar and singing. He had the audience sing along and pulled a girl up on the stage. He had a bra thrown at him and I screamed when he held it up. Hey, that Dierks is one handsome fellow. At the end, after he sang his 'last' song, Brian was sad because he didn't sing "What was I thinking" which is Brian's favorite. But then Dierks said he would sing one more, and that was it. It was totally awesome and so so much fun. I would have definatly paid to see that concert, even if I didn't win tickets on the radio! Did I already say how awesome it was?

Do you think Dierks is awesome? I was just wondering ;) Sounds like you guys had a lot of fun! I can't remember the last time I went to a concert!

I've never been to a concert. Ever ever in my entire life. I've decided that I'm a loser. Glad you had fun!

Ok, to post a youtube video is super simple. You go to youtube and copy the embed code. It's usually right under the description of the video. Then go to your posts. When you go to your post, there will be two tabs that say 'edit html' and the other one says 'compose.' Click on the 'edit html' tab, and paste the embed code from youtube anywhere in the post box. And wah-lah! It's really easy. Let me know if it works for ya!
