Boyz to Men, ABC BBD

Tuesday, September 16, 2008













If you grew up in my generation you know who Boys II men is. They are the original boy band. Back in the day (and even now ;)) theirs were the songs we made out to. I remember singing karaoke to their songs a few times even. So, when we heard they were coming to perform Erika got us some tickets. I wasn't sure what to expect. Honestly, I'm not a huge concert-goer. I wasn't super excited to go, but erika sure was. I have to say that it ended up being a blast!
The concert was at the Scera in Orem. Outdoor concerts are so much more fun than indoor ones. We showed up half an hour early and the place was PACKED! I was surprised. Once we got in we met Caesar and Sarah there. We were lucky enough to find some decent seats in the middle. The only annoying thing about our seats was the Asian family in front of us. For some reason the dad felt the need to hold his 6-year old son on his shoulders the whole time. Luckily I sat next to a college girl, Leslie I think was her name, who was cool and ended up becoming my best friend ;)LOL.  She got the Asian family to sit down out of the way. Problem Solved.The first few acts were honestly pretty gay except for seeing a 12-year old girl just wail! It was amazing to see this little girl fromAlpine sing her heart out better than all the other performers she was competing against. It was a sort of Utah-Idol type thing and this little girl represented!Once they were done I was fully expecting to see the Boyz II Men guys roll out in their wheelchairs and serenade everyone their with raspy old voices. I mean, c'mon. They were old when I was young. Realistically they are probably only 10-15 years older than me so when they strolled out onto the stage unassisted by wheelchairs, crutches, or canes I wasn't as surprised as I originally thought. They put on a GREAT show! They had everyone singing and dancing. It's not often you see big acts (once upon a time anyway) nowadays that synchronize their dancing and harmonize their singing so well. It was such a great show that they even came back out after it was over for an encore. After they show we took some pictures with Caesar and Sarah and headed home. Unfortunately for my new friend Leslie she eventually realized that Erika is indeed my wife and she would have to go home alone. Would I do a Boyz II Men concert again? Fo Sho.

It's always sunny

I found a new favorite show. There's not a lot of TV I like to take the time to watch. but I do enjoy a few shows. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is a show that I've wanted to watch since it came out, but it's never on at a good time. Thanks to hulu.com I can watch it whenever I want. I'm a very generous pserson and like to share little nuggets of joy with others when I can even though I know a lot of you out there will just find this particular show offensive. Maybe that's what draws me to it. I'm not afraid of political incorrectness. Enjoy!
