On November 17 at 1 p.m. Robin purchased 5 tickets to see Gaelic Storm; they were playing at the Exit In. Paulette, John, Brooke, Robin and myself were so excited. We all needed a night out on the town to have some fun, and we knew we would like this Irish band.
When it got closer to the date in January and with Nashville getting so much snow, we watched the weather daily. Then the day of the show, we woke up with snow on the ground. Thank goodness the snow melted, and we were able to move forward with our plans.
Unfortunately, John and Paulette were not able to go. Brooke, Robin and I met at Logan's close to the Exit In to eat, and then took one car to the show. Our car was parked close, we walked to stand in line for about 30 minutes, and then went into the show. There was one guy in line that was wearing a kilt, short sleeved shirt, a green top hat, and he had a beer stein holder on the side of his belt. We tried to get a picture, but it was too dark.
The opening act was good, but when Gaelic Storm took the stage everyone was screaming and shouting. Yes, I was clapping, singing, dancing, yelling and had the most amazing time. I think Robin may have had a little better time; sometimes I put Brooke next to her so other people would think that they knew each other. Finally I just joined in, and didn't care who thought I was crazy. You need to have some embarrassing fun sometimes; it does a world of good.
