Anything But Gray

Bon Jovi played in Connecticut tonight, at the casino.
This is the casino we go to when we go back home.
They are playing there tomorrow night too.
I had already bought our plane tickets for our trip during Jaime's spring break and then he added these shows!
So broke my heart…..
7 days away….I missed him by 7 friggin' days.

There is almost no better feeling in the world, than watching Bon Jovi live.
I've seen them only 5 times now and I never, ever get sick of it.
This is a clip from their 2006 tour. This is the tour Zak and I went to Portland to see. We met up with Tina and she came too. It was AWESOME.
We had kick ass seats. Floor seats, row 10.

This clip is of the song Blaze of Glory. For me, his was one of the absolute, hands down, best concert moments ever. The intro was amazing. And I loved how long it was…it was like a crescendo rising and rising in your soul…the drums….you could feel the music in your chest….and the beat…it just sucked you in….it made you feel the song over every inch of your body. It was thisclose to holy, the feeling was so amazing to me. And then the drums stopped and you could hear his voice…you could hear his words…but you didn't know where he was singing from, it took a few seconds to find him, in the crowd. And the excitement in that moment….not knowing where he was, but hearing that voice…hearing his words…and feeling them on your skin….it was just absolutely amazing.

This clip does not do it justice…but it's pretty darn close.

 
I swear, for the rest of my life….if people question my love for music and my insatiable need to see bands/singers live…I'll just show them this clip…this is it. If I had to simplify it….this is why.

I'm so bummed I missed them, but I'm holding out hope they play Boston this summer.
I have some serious Live Bon Jovi making up to do!
