Back when I was in college, my roommate and I decided that if Garth ever performed again, anywhere, we were going!  So some time in fall of 2009 I heard he was coming to Vegas and him and Steve Wynn has some sort of deal worked out and he was going to fly Garth and Trisha back and forth in a private jet from Texas to Vegas twice a month for five years to perform.  I freaked out...  I have loved Garth since I was a little cowgirl!  I pick up my cell phone and started to call Kellyn, my college roommate, but she beat me to it and the phone rang in my ear. When I said hello we both started screaming.  Yes, we were on our way to Garth.  We had to wait patiently for about 4-5 months until Jan. 23rd.  It was going to be our birthday trip because we both have birthday's coming up.  Therefore, spending $143 on one ticket was justifiable!
We drove down and checked into our awesomely old hotel at the Tropicana!  Then we set out for the night!  We had to burn a little time at the Fourm Shops and grabbed something to eat at the Cheesecake Factory.  Delightful!
We started over to pick up our tickets at the Wynn Hotel and the excitement really set in when the guy put wristbands on us and told us to enjoy the show!

  He had nothing to worry about!  We waited until the first concert let out and then we got in line for the second show.  Yes, Garth does two shows a night and still has more energy then a child!  So as we got in line, guess who was next to us???? Chuck Liddell... the UFC fighter!  Cool, right... I only caught glimpse's of him because his little girlfriend was ALL OVER HIM!  She was making sure everyone knew he was with her! 
So then we made our way into the concert hall and we are on like the 13th row!  40 Ft. away from the stage!!!! 

We both start getting more and more excited.  The lady next to me flew in from Ohio and she probably thought we were crazy. 
Then Garth makes his entrance... let me tell you what he was wearing... Levi carpenter pants, a hoodie and a baseball hat that said Garth, not to mention his work boots.  Still... it was Garth and it felt like he was staring at us all night cause we were so close. 

The crowd went wild, from screaming to crying everyone was going crazy, including us!  He started telling us his life story growing up and he would talk about his dad and play some of the songs he like, then the same with his mom and brothers.  So we didn't hear a Garth song for about an hour.  He made it really personal and fun.  Then he started to play some Garth and we got to hear the details about each song.  SWEET!!


Then the best part... he asked for the house lights to turn up and he started taking request!  Again, screaming and crying!!! Two and a half hours later it was all over and I was mesmerized.  I want to go again and again and again.  He never gets old and I love him!! So he promised when he last girl graduates high school in 5 years, he and Trisha will go on tour again!!! YIPPEE!!! I will start saving my pennies now!
Bottom line, Garth is Great!  I strongly suggest everyone to go even if they are not the biggest Garth fan.  Well worth your time and money!
