What A Concert!

I don't mean to rub it in with all you Keith fans back home, but Brin and I have decided that Keith's concert was one of the best we've ever seen!

The whole day of the concert was a great one, as we were so excited for what was to come later that night! Within minutes of waking up, we both had our cowboy hats on, and they remained there for the whole day!

We bused into the city after lunch and basically just wandered around, did some shopping, and listened to Keith on my Ipod. We went to a backpacker pub for supper and some drinks, and then took the train to the Brisbane Entertainment Center.

A band called The Waifs was the opening band, and they were pretty good. Keith came on stage just after nine, and his opening some was a single from his new album called "Once In A Lifetime." We had the biggest smiles on our face, and couldn't believe that we were actually at the Keith Urban concert - and in Australia!!

He ended up playing 10 of the 12 songs from his newest album, which Brin and I bought back in March and have listened to every day since. He also played a ton of his old stuff, and Brin and I knew the words to pretty much every song. He played for well over 2 hours.

He was a super entertainer! He played an acoustic version of"Raining on Sunday", and it was fantastic! He also did a solo of "Tonight I Wanna cry", and it was pretty spectacular too! "Somebody Like You" was the last song he played before his encore, and Brin and I got up and two-stepped to that one!

It was just an all-around fantastic concert, and the memories we have will last a lifetime!

Oh - and after a weekend in Brisbane we've decided that we never want to leave Byron, and we actually called our boss from Brisbane on Friday to see if he'd filled our positions at the cookie company yet. He haden't, and said we could come back. So we've decided to keep living and working in Byron until the first weekend in June, and from there we're start our adventure up the coast!

Thanks for tuning in, and Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there!
