My night with Dierks

Okay so it’s not as dirty as it sounds. I will be slowly uploading the pictures over the next few days. I’m sort of a photography freak - especially since I got my new camera and the lens I have for it - but I took 900 photos LMAO! Some were deleted for being a bit blurry but the majority are very good.

Anyway, the concert was awesome! First off, I must say that Dierks is by far one of the nicest celebrities I’ve met in a meet and greet type setting. He was so nice and personable. I think my favorite part of meeting him was he looked at my press pass that I had on and asked if I was a writer and all and I noticed he spelled my name right on my picture and I’m like “Hey, how did you know how to spell my name?” and he laughed, telling me he cheated by looking at my card LMAO! He also said he liked the spelling of my name and that I could stay around backstage and take as many pics as I wanted. Before heading back out to my seat, I saw a few guys that I go to school with that work on the camera crew there at the theme park and talked with them.

I missed seeing Bucky Covington and I’m not too broken hearted, though. Luke Bryan, on the other hand, was AMAZING. He knew how to draw the crowd in and his little stage moves remind me of Billy Currington. He sung all of his songs, along with “Good Directions” which he co-wrote for Billy. Dierks part of the concert was pure magic. He reminds me of Garth Brooks on stage, running from end to end and then just getting so involved in the show itself that he doesn’t know what to do next. I really liked the acoustic part of the show when he sung “My Last Name,” which is one of my favorite songs. The show was so entergetic and just… awesome. That’s all I can really say about it.

Now I must go get some sleep…. the Daytona 500 is tomorrow.
