A spot just for fans attending the show in Fargo, ND
My review & pic links
All in all it was a fantastic show! Could have done without the people in my row and those right in front of me coming and going every few minutes, UGH!
We (Mom & I) left our apartment around 12:30 for lunch at Micky D's. After that we went to my aunt's house & visited for a while. After a tire check we said our good-byes, used the bathroom and hit the road around 1:30. It was a smooth, uneventful trip. I saw 1 man on a tractor the whole way, so much for tractor bingo!
Shortly before crossing into N Dakota we stopped off at a Menard's (our version of Lowe's) for a quick bathroom break. Upon arrival in Fargo we decided to just park at the Fargodome ($3) and attend the party on the plaza there. We got there probably a quarter to 4 in the parking lot, so since it took them a bit longer to set up we crossed the road and went to Buffalo's where my aunt had a beer or 2 (of course) and Mom and I had cokes. There was a bartender that had a cowboy hat on but he hated country music, I took a picture of him from behind so we could make everyone we know think it was Kenny just for a moment, ha we're funny!
About 4:30 we headed back to the Fargodome and the party had finally started, but it was no substitute for a real fan club tailgate party. Everyone was just sitting in the shade drinking beer or water although hearing them play all Kenny songs was good, I knew all of those songs. There was someone in a cute frog outfit for Froggy station, got my pic with him. So then we sit there and I talk to a radio dj from Froggy and he suggested I try to get on the stage, I laughed & said "I don't think so! SECURITY!". So when 6 pm came around we let some of the crowd enter before us, crossed the road again and ate supper at Burger King since Buffalo's was very busy at the time, I swear there was a dead ringer for Tim Hensley at the booth behind us.
We went back across and finally entered the Fargodome probably around 6:30, so after having my ticket scanned I made a beeline for the merch table where I bought an 8 x 10 of all 3 performers (one of KC for a fan coworker of Mom's), the Kenny tour bandana and KC tour keychain. I spent only half my $ out of the $60 I had on me. I got down to the floor and I found that I had to walk all the way around the back of the front-of-house sound board area, in inch thick flip flops! So I kept my ticket displayed in the lanyard in my hand & just smiled & showed all the guards. I thought it would be a huge fixed section all together, to my surprise they split the section with an aisle between seats 18 & 19 so that made getting to seat 17 EASY PEASY LEMON SQUEEZY! I was in my seat like 20 minutes before Lady A came on so I took pics of the disco ball, empty stage, etc. The reason I'm a lot deaf and the calls sounded pretty good is the speaker column was hanging in front of me.
When Lady A came on the girl in seat 18 and her friend in 19 showed up and pushed me down to 16 for a bit until the other people came during Miranda. Lady A & Miranda played to not even half of Kenny's crowd but they were great! So for some reason the 2 girls that took over my spot during Lady A & Miranda left during Kenny so someone else snuck up & stayed in the seat, I didn't really care that much. Took a pic of my Mom & Aunt sitting together in their seats right on the aisle. Miranda warned us that "Kenny looked hotter than usual tonight" and I gotta say, she was RIGHT!
I saw the swing chair being lowered for Kenny so instead of watching the video I basically turned around & waited, watched the video over my shoulder. Kenny came out on his elevated swing chair and went over some of us on the floor, I was maybe a few people from him on it! I got about 150 good Kenny pics and about 100 pics of Lady A & Miranda together, and some of the trip and the pre-show stuff we did. Thanks to my platform flip flops I was able to take better pics, no 7 foot Fred tonight! Kenny wore the usual black hat, bluish-gray shirt, blue jeans & brown boots as all the other indoor shows. He was hot, sexy, on fire, and all over the stage! When he was on the front stage he seemed to gravitate my way since I was screaming at top volume.
The only bummers were the people who kept coming & going in my row, and that Kenny was so sweaty & tired he didn't extend the set at all. I was tired of hearing people saying "My camera SUCKS!", I'm thinking "Well you get what ya pay for". Nobody spilled beer on me, but the more Kenny sweated the more I sweated! I made good on my promise to text and call and take pics, and I also took a few moments during some songs to just take it in. I called our home phone during No shoes to hear how it would come out, except I was singing along and I can hear myself, geeze!
You can save pics for your personal drool files or scrapbooking, but please, ASK BEFORE USING ONLINE! THANK YOU!
Here are the links to all my pics.
