A Very Brandi Weekend.

Okay Dear Friend, I'm back! I'm going to try to catch you up as briefly as possible so that we can get back on track.

Last weekend, as I'm sure you know, was spent chasing Brandi Carlile across Arizona.

Saturday we headed up to Flagstaff for the show at the Orpheum. We had lunch at Charlies, magical drinks at The Hotel Monte Vista, and made our way back to the line. We met up with some of our other friends, made some new ones, and generally had an awesome time.



We were front-ish row, just right of center, and we had so much fun we decided to do it again on Sunday.

So we packed our stuff up and headed down to Tucson for Brandi 2.0. We met up with some of our friends, and the girls we'd befriended the day before and generally had a ridiculous time. This day, although we got there much closer to the show time than we did the day before, the line was almost non-existent, so we got a much better spot. Front-ish row center. However, it was much MUCH hotter up there, and much harder to breathe. I gradually drifted farther and farther backwards as the set went on until I found a good spot temperature wise. Nevertheless, it was fantastic. Super fantastic in fact.

We went to IHOP after the concert, and then began the long drive home around 2am.




I stopped at a food truck on the way back to my house, ate a fried egg sandwhich, and spent the next 48 vomiting my brains out. It was still totally worth it though. LOL.


Today this video from the Rialto in Tucson popped up. At 3:36 you can see the lot of us. I'm in the middlish, about 3 people back with pearls in my hair. If I possessed the capacity to be embarrassed, I probably would be, but since I don't, here it is:




Miss your face Dear Friend!
