#21 Go to a concert

So, I have kind of slacked and this happened a few weeks ago, but I get mark it off none the less! A couple weeks ago a good friend of mine Nicole and I went to the hippest little joint in Knoxville, The Square Room. The Square Room is a small concert room located in the back of Cafe 4 in Market Square. I have always wanted to go and check it out, but never found the right opportunity. Then when I got back to the states, my brother informed me that the one and only Elliott Yamin was going to be there! I slightly freaked out, and knew I had to go! For those of you not up to date on the entertainment world or are too up to date, Elliott Yamin was in the top 3 on season 5 of American Idol. You may remember the hit "Wait for You" a couple years ago, and that was him. He is brilliant and you should check him out if you don't know his music. I am a huge fan, and could not contain my excitement all week! We got all dressed up, and headed downtown! We got there early and got a perfect table up front! A fella by the name of Mikey Wax opened for him. We had not heard of him before, but he was excellent! A very different but cool sound! Definitely check him out! Because of the small room and number of people there we got to hang out with them after the show! They were really cool! It was a perfect night, ending with a trip to Cookout (of course!). 

Nicole and I waiting for it to start!
