Great review. I was there too! I actually was right in front of you. It was my first ever AJ concert, I had bought tickets in the 15th row and joined the fan club shortly after. I entered the front row ticket give away and to my surprise won, probably the most exciting thing that ever happened to me. I grew up loving Alan. He was the first ever Cd I got (A lot about Livin') and the first ever concert, sad that I have never been to one till I was 24. It was the best night of my life. I made posters for him which caught his attention and he gave me a pick as well. I also got a signed cd cover and set list!
His performance was so much better than I ever expected, he really blew me away. I really enjoyed he the sit down part of the concert as well but I do wish he sang "Neon Rainbow" more and not just a bit of it. Its one of my all time favs and self-claimed Karaoke song. When he finished with Chattahoochi I was so excited. I use to dance to that song and put on performances for my parents when I was 6 in my over-sized Alan Jackson shirt.
The night was by far the best I have ever had and I am so thankful to the AJFC for the opportunity they gave me.
