Happy Monday my blog friends! I hope you had a good weekend. Mine was a busy one and was good! Here are some highlights...
Friday night, I met up 3 friends that I use to homeschool with way back in the day. All of our lives look so different now but we love getting together a few times a year.
Saturday morning, I was up bright and early to work at a 5K. The weather was good and we had a great turnout of supporters.
After waking up so early, I spent the entire afternoon resting in bed. I got up later to get ready to go see Darius Rucker in concert with Jenn. The concert was at an outdoor amphitheater. Once again, the weather was great and it is such a fun place to see a concert. We brought in our own chairs for lawn seats and you can also bring in a cooler. I hadn't been to a concert here in a while.
I saw Hootie and The Blowfish in 2003 but this was first time to see Darius on his own. My first words afterwards were I will never not go see Darius Rucker in concert anytime he is near! It was so, so good! Also, I may have a little crush on Darius. He is an amazing performer.
If you are wondering, his shirt says Al Green!
I stayed in Sunday morning and then met Jenn and another friend of ours for lunch. It was a fun visit!
I ran a few quick errands and spent the afternoon at home watching tv before going to a dinner at church. Since I had missed that morning, it was good to see friends last night.
Have you seen Darius/Hootie in concert before? Who was your favorite concert?
Thanks for reading and hope you have a good day!
It looks like a fun weekend! I've always liked Darius' music. I'm glad you had good weather for all of the outdoor activities :) Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYou've been busy! I listened to him on Spotify and he is good. I love his voice. I liked your concert outfit and I am so glad it cooled down. Being able to bring in a cooler is so nice!
ReplyDeleteEek….what a great concert!!!! So excited you got to go. Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a great weekend! I like that one single of his, Wagon Wheel, I think it is? But that's really all I know of his and that one hit of Hootie back in the day. It's good you got to rest in the afternoon after the 5k. Those races are usually quite early! Have a great Monday :).
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed your Friday and Sunday night dinners with friends! And that concert...wow. I'm still thinking about it over here! What a fun night it was, and I'm so thankful the weather was so great for us. I had thought it might be another really hot one after Teddy Swims, but am so glad it was nicer. I hope you have a great day, my friend! Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteHow fun! He's a huge Carolina fan (Gamecocks) and is in the area a lot. We're on the Clemson side but we still love him lol. He is so talented and I love his voice. I haven't seen any live music this summer which is sad. Glad you had a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun concert! My favorite performer is Billy Joel, but I went to a concert last week and it was a fun time too.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like such a fun weekend. Not only have I never been to a Rucker concert before, I had to Google who that was! It really didn't help much but I got to hear some new songs.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun weekend! Love Darius Rucker- so glad you ladies enjoyed!
ReplyDeleteNow I have to go see Darius if he comes to town. I bet it was so good. Loved catching up with you today!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great weekend! It sounds like you had a good one! The concert sounds like fantastic fun with a brilliant atmosphere. I had to Google who Darius Rucker was and as soon as I read Hootie and The Blowfish I knew him!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and busy weekend!! I’ve never seen Darius Rucker live but I have heard that he’s amazing. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteI saw Hootie & The Blowfish WAAAAAAY back in like 1996. They were great then. Darius has always been HOT!
ReplyDeleteMy all-time favorite concert was The Eagles. It was the Hell Freezes Over Tour in the early 90s, so it was their first time touring since the 70s. It was at an outdoor amphitheater in October, in the lawn, in the pouring down rain and it was Phenomenal! The Eagles have been my favorite band since I was a little girl. I have very distinct memories of listening to Hotel California on 8-track in my parents pinto station wagon (yes, I'm old - lol)
You had such a fun weekend!! I'd love to see Darius Rucker again... I got to see him open for Brad Paisley way back and he was awesome! Such a great voice!
