So on Saturday Oct. 10th 2009 Tyson and I got to go see Snow Patrol (and The Plain White T's) at the Mckay Events Center. We got our tickets for free from a lady Tyson's mom works with who bought the tickets and wasn't able to go (Muchos Gracias to her!!!!) So the adventure began when we had to come up with $3 for parking, of course neither one of us had cash, so Tyson handed me a huge handful of change and told me to start counting. (mind you he didn't have any quarters!) after I counted out a dollar I handed to the girl so we could count out 2 more dollars, She said it was ok and let us park for $1 :) After we parked the car we had to walk trough security, I had a GIGANITC purse and I knew they were going to search it! The Security guard started looking through my purse and asked me if I had any food or drink....... knowing I had put in a granola bar in, in case I got hungry I told him "I am pretty sure there is a granola bar in there." He said "a granola bar ?!?!?! well you better not eat in here!" (he was being sarcastic, it was funny!)
Then we found our seats and the concert began! It was SO SO SO SO SO good I loved it! The Plain White T's lead singer was sick, but oh well! (they sang just enough songs, and I managed to live through "hey there delilah" It's not such a bad song:) ) Then the Wonderful IRISH Snow Patrol band did an AWESOME job! I seriously had a ton of fun! They played my favorite song "Make This Go on Forever" so I was completely satisfied!
Another great thing about the concert was listening to Gary (the lead singer) just talk, yes just talk in his handsome Irish accent, His Irish singing voice wasn't too bad either;)
Yahoo for a free concert.... well I guess it cost us a dollar.
My only regret: I should have bought the T-shirt
Good fun. I used to really like Snow Patrol when "Final Straw" came out.
