Lady Antebellum at Rodeo Austin


What a night!! Amy and I decided to meet at my work so that we could take one car. We headed out at just before 6, knowing we had plenty of time for the 8:45 concert time on our tickets. We decided on Suzi's Chinese food and I ended up getting sushi, which always makes me happy. The desserts were lacking, so we decided to head to the Rodeo to try and find something there. As we approached the fairgrounds, we saw the line for the entrance we needed to take and just started laughing. It was basically an entire block long...which in Texas is FAR.

After over 40 minutes, literally, we finally got to the front and paid, but then had to wait behind cars in order to actually turn into the parking lot. So much for spare time! We made it into the fairgrounds no problem and Amy saw some old students of hers as we walked around trying to find dessert. Everything seemed rediculously overpriced, so we decided to go wait in line to get in, even though we still had about a half hour. Good plan. This line was even longer than the parking and was about 6 people wide as well. We made our way to the back and had a smoker in front of us, a group of teens behind us and later a group of scandalously-clad college aged girls who tried to cut the line once it started moving.

We ultimately made it into the arena and were quite literally standing on the dirt that the rodeo had just taken place on. We positioned ourselves next to the stage and the concert began pretty quickly. As a new country fan and even newer Lady A fan, I hadn't heard more than a handful of their songs before, but each of them is so cute and talented it didn't matter. I had a great time and had fun taking photos and videos of the night. A few are here, but check out my facebook and you can see more!
