these are the days

best. concert. ever.

we almost didn't go because it was pouring down rain, and our lawn seats were...on the lawn. weather report: 100% chance of rain until 9pm. i kept thinking - go, and be wet and grumpy, but hear one of my favorite bands live; don't go, be warm and cozy inside, but regret that i just wasted $40. in neither scenario i would be happy and dancing to my favorite songs. but jenny suggested a compromise: go, try it out, and leave whenever we want to - no guilt, no need to brave out the whole concert. so we got in the car and drove up 400 in a steady drizzle. we arrived. and it stopped raining. at 7pm.

and hasn't started back since.

and oh was the concert glorious - best one i've been to in a really long time. sugarland puts on a great live show, and if you get a chance to see them, jump. for those who aren't versed in the glory that is sugarland, here are 5 songs you must download from itunes:

1. speed of life
2. settlin'
3. joey
4. stay
5. these are the days

i think their covers of "come on get higher" and "irreplaceable" are genius...and tonight they covered REM's "nightswimming." i mean, seriously? couldn't have been happier.
