The List: #46- Go to an Unexpected Concert

Well, after 11 months I finally get to write one of these! 

I get to cross off number 46 on me list. Go to and Unexpected Concert. 

So, confession I actually changed this listing earlier this year. When I decided to write about crossing these off this year I realized there were a few that I had written down that I didn't really want to do anymore. Originally this was go and see a Taylor Swift concert.

That was back with Taylor Swift actually had good music. 

However, I changed it cause I really don't want to see Taylor Swift anymore. However, there was no one else that I really wanted to see so much to put on my list. So, I decided to put and unexpected concert on there instead to see what might happen. 

Oh and all of the things that did happen. 

I have mentioned before that I love the Tennessee Theatre. Over the last few years I have have been very blessed to get to know some of the wonderful people who work there. Which has been great because they have asked me to volunteer for stuff in the last two years. Last night they asked me to check in VIP ticket holders for their Stars on Stage Gala that benefits The Tennessee Theatre. The star on the stage last night was EmmyLou Harris. 


So, here is how this happened. Last week I was buying a shirt from the Tennessee Theatre (long story won't get into it), when I ran into the head of marketing and the Executive Director for the Theatre. They told me they were just talking about me and asked me to Volunteer to check in the VIPs. I said yes of course! They told me that after I was done helping them that I could go to the concert. 

Now, I have heard of Emmylou Harris but I have not heard any of her songs before. So, I was excited to see someone that I had no experience of listening to before. Her concert was really good and it's was really just about the music. There wasn't a whole lot of lighting or changes of scenery on stage. It felt more like we were at a jam session and she was telling us about her career. 

I have to say that being able to cross something off my list and being able to help my favorite place in the whole world is really the best way to spend a Thursday night. Hopefully, more of those will happen in the future!
