Alli, I drove down for the show in Waco last night. I think my wife and I were the oldest people at the concert by about 20 years. We had a great time. Your set was too short, but great.

Hope you enjoyed your birthday and the cake they gave you! Did you hear everyone sing Happy Birthday at the end of the concert?

There is a website you should check out when you have some downtime and need something to do!
