The Featherston crew once again rocked the night away – country style.  We attended the Southern Voice Tour concert of Tim McGraw – the 4th time Linda and I have seen him in concert.  This was the first time Anna and Emily got to see him live.

The concert first opened with the group Love and Theft, a standard country rock band with good music.  They played 5 songs for the first 20 minutes in an effort to get the Sprint Center audience in the mood for some awesome music.

Next – a real treat – was Lady Antebellum.  This was our second show with this very talented trio (they opened for Kenny Chesney last year).  They played for almost an hour and really had the crowd rocking and ready to go.

Then…there was an hour delay before the Tim came on stage.  I kept thinking, “Maybe I can go get a drink while we’re waiting”, but you know how it is – as soon as you get up, the concert starts without you.

While waiting, however, there was a film crew on stage that filmed audience scenes for an upcoming movie Tim McGraw has with Gwyneth Paltrow, “Love Don’t Let Me Down”.  So – at least we are now film extras – a small price to pay for an hour delay.

When Tim came on stage – it was almost 2 hours of excellent country music.  We sang, danced, and had an absolute blast!  He sang so many favorites, Linda put it best – “It’s just like driving down the road in my car”.

Here’s hoping the next time we see Tim McGraw, it’ll be with his wife, Faith Hill.  We’ve seen them together twice and that makes for some awesome duets.
