There's nothing like going to a great concert. Even when that concert is on a Sunday evening and you dread your alarm before you even leave for the show.
The sister and I headed to Grace Potter & the Nocturnals with gleaming eyes and ready ears. This was to be my sister's first time seeing her live, and oh did she bring it! A very descriptive blog about this can be found here from Radio Potato!
It was a night where two friends also had their experience with Grace for the first time. It makes me feel so good when folks actually take my music opinions seriously and on top of it have their minds blown!
The Nocturnals came out first to start the rocking, really envoking the musical muse for the evening! Then with a sparkley little black dress came my generation's most phenomenal female rocker! Yes, she is truly a Diva! I've described her as the perfect mix between Grace Slick and Jannis Joplin. I say this because I grew up in a house where those were my father's two favorite female rockers.
Now if any one knows please let me know if she's ever covered "Crazy On You" before? That was the encore and it was insane!
Part of what made the night so special was that I got the set-list from off of her organ (kudos to the stagehand for that one)! And though I didn't get to meet her, the manager did get her to sign it for me = Boo Freakin' Ya!!

I love Grace! It's so exciting that she is getting to be a bigger star these days...
