Last Thursday as soon as I got out of school, I met some friends and my sister-in-law, and we hit the road for Kansas City. This is about 3.5 hours away. But we didn’t care–we were seeing Daughtry and Bon Jovi.

This is my “I’m too cool to cross my legs, and my feet don’t touch the ground anyway” pose. It’s very attractive.

You know what else is attactive?  How HIGH up we were. Ugh, seriously, this wasn’t the nose bleed section, this was the cerebral hemmorage from alititude  section.

They didn’t turn the big screens on for Daughtry, which TOTALLY ticked me off. So because I forgot my bionic eye, I couldn’t see him. But if you squint really hard, I think he’s the second one from the left. I like Daughtry a lot. He was my pick for Idol ‘06. And he has an interesting range–power ballads to Screamo.

So some of Bon Jovi’s outfits (okay, ALL of them) were strange. This one was not a favorite.

Hey, Jon. The Village People called–they want their costume back.  I wish I had a pic of the yoga shirt he finished the show in, but honestly I thought I was protecting him by not capturing it and displaying the image for all the world to see. But I’m pretty sure JBJ knows a downward facing dog from a sun salutation.

The keyboardist impressed me. Dude could play TWO keyboards at once. I took lessons for five years and can’t even play two KEYS at once.

Richie Sambora (on the left) also played one of those double guitar thingies. (Those of us familiar with the music biz just call them DGTs.) I don’t know how in the world these guys could have two things going on. I can’t do anything simultaneously like that. Let me think about what I”m good at…okay, emailing. I’m a fierce emailer. But can I email two different emails at once? Nope. I think I might be able to eat two candy bars at once though. I’m gonna work on that tonight.

“Where’s Jennifer? I can’t see her. My concert is not complete without making eye contact–even though I’m disgustingly sweaty and she thinks my outfit makes me look like I’ve watched too much Will and Grace. Could someone please call NASA and get me a high powered telescope so I can look up at the top and find her?”

How do you know you’ve watched too many Will Ferrell movies? When you keep referring to Bon Jovi’s number one song as “Blades of Glory.”

Well, I’m still tired from getting back home at 4 a.m. Friday, so I am going to hang out on the couch and watch THIS mature piece of cinema. Have a great Monday!
