Concert

Last weekend was a fun weekend! We hit up Myrtle Beach for food, fun, and a great concert.
Donna and I hit the road late Friday an ended up eating at Benjamin's that night. Who doesn't like an All You Can Eat Buffet?! Of course we went out for a while after and had a great time. Although Myrtle is somewhat of a ghost town in the off season, we still enjoyed ourselves.
Saturday consisted of time in the indoor pool, TGI Fridays for lunch and Japanese Steakhouse for dinner with my friends Rob and Christy. Both meals were delicious! The day culminated with us having the opportunity to see one of my favorite bands of all time: Alice in Chains! I had accepted the fact years ago that when the lead singer, Layne Staley, died in 2002 that I had missed my opportunity to see them live. Little did I know that they'd end up finding an amazing singer, William Duvall, whose voice was spot on with Laynes. William was the lead singer of an Alice in Chains cover band and is now AIC's amazing new front man. Who knew that you could close your eyes and listen to any of their songs and have clue which of the two singers you were hearing. Amazing. Anyway, we hit up that concert and it totally rocked. We all enjoyed the show and sang along with nearly every song.
It was funny that on the way in, Rob had asked me which song I was most excited to hear. That was a loaded question since I love most of their catalog, but I ended up choosing Rooster. I so enjoyed the concert that I hardly realized they didn't perform that song. Only after they left the stage did it hit me. But wait, of course they came back for a two song encore. Guess what, Man in the Box was first and they finished up with Rooster! Incredible.
What an amazing weekend with great friends! Cant wait to do it again!
