Oh my, I have NO idea where to even begin! LMAO!
First off I want to thank you a good friend of mine T {He asked not to be publicly mentioned} for setting everything up, the trip, hotel, food, and also the seats up in the very front and center of the stage {Best seats in the villa by far!}. This was my reward for my recent 85lb weight loss over the past year {Thanks all goes to Reshape the Nation and to JP for putting up with me, lol!}. What more could a girl ask for?!
The concert was held at a real nice place called, The Woodlands Center {See link} The Woodlands Center in Houston, TX After was another plus, there's always something nice to say about most all Motel 6's {Except the one in Kanawha City, WV, it needs a serious renovation and employee turn-a-round!}.
My only real issues/complaints were having to leave JP and Nick at home, neither was interested in going and second I HATE crossing bridges of ANY kind and there were 2 of them!!!
In all my honest guilt though, I feel 16 again! LMAO! It's been since the 90's since I've been to a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers concert! And believe me when I tell you they only get better with time! Just like a fine whiskey, the older it is, the more potent and tasty it is ;-) I can't wait to get my pictures from the concert off my phone so I can share any that turned out half decent ;-)
Oh, I nearly forgot to mention that ZZ Top was the opening act, and still as strange and awesome as ever! :-)

A lot of great ones performed, a lot of oldies/newbies left out, but realistically it would be impossible for them to cover every great hit they've ever had and all the new ones too. I would have loved to hear 'Louisiana Rain' but I believe there was just enough of everything from through-out the years to make everyone happy...At least I can vouch that I'm one happy, glowing chic right now, lol!
I could go on and on and on about it, lol! But I'll spare you the twisted, perverted mind of a drooling teenage girl that's buried deep inside my mental psych, lol!
Have a Great Week ahead folks....My next blog will cover the reasons behind our decision to change our family surname and JP's {DJ's} decision to change both his first and middle name as well.... Hope to see you all there!
Peace be with you all...
