Collin Raye Concert 11/5/08

I went to a Collin Raye concert at Desert Star tonight. This is the first time I'd seen him in concert. I went by myself because finding someone to go with is not an easy feat.

Collin is a great performer. He put on a really good show. It was a small room and it was just Collin, his piano player, Melanie, and guitar player, Scott. Collin's daughter, Brittany, came on stage and sang a few songs with him. Collin and Brittay moved to SLC because Brittany's eldest daughter is very ill and Primary Children's is the only hospital that will help them.

Collin says he will play there again next November. All his shows this week sold out. I definitely want to go next year.

It was really fun because I saw two people I know. My friend Connie from the 4th Ward and her daughter, Tammy, were there with friends. Connie's other daughter Debbi was my Mary Kay lady and I taughter her daughter Alisa in Primary.

Tammy and her friends were the wild bunch at the concert. It was nice not being the loudest one there. I hope Tammy got some pictures. Cameras weren't allowed but some people were taking pictures with their phones. If she has pictures I will post them later.

Tammy and her friends were ooing and awing over how sexy Collin is. Well, I can't agree because Trace Adkins is the sexiest man I've ever seen. Maybe I need to convert them? Well, maybe I'll just let them be. Collin seems like a nice guy and seems to be a good Christian.

I think it would have been much more fun if I was sitting with people I knew. It's hard to get rowdy and share the fun when you don't know the people you're sitting by. Sometimes being single really sucks!!
Goof job Collin and gang. It was a fabulous evening!!!
