Johnny Reid Concert
I went to the most amazing concert last night! I wasn't even sure I wanted to go because at this stage in my life sleep takes precendence over everything else *L* but my Mom had bought me a ticket so I went. It was the most amazing concert!! There were no special effects like we saw at the Neon Circus or huge names like Tim and Faith with Soul 2 Soul II but it was held at the Clarke Theatre in Mission and there were maybe 400 people there. We had front row tickets and met Johnny after the show. Like I said, AMAZING! This man is so talented. At one point I was taking pictures and he bent down and stole the camera to take a picture of Steph and I in the audience and then took it around taking pictures of his band for us. I am not a groupie and would never follow someone around or request their autograph but we did meet him and he signed some CD jackets for my Mom and her friend, Stella. He also saw my Mom on her cane and asked me what was wrong. When I told him she had MS (she and Stella were waiting further away, on a bench), he beckoned her over and gave her a hug and a picture that they were selling at the artist table with a special message for her. He is such a nice guy!! Here is his latest video and I will post pictures later ... I wish I could get out to his show in Vancouver tonight (but who would brave the Canucks play-off traffic to see a concert they had already seen?!?) :P
