I just returned home today from a few days in Las Vegas. Of course, the purpose of the trip was to attend the Alan Jackson concert at the new M Resort and the highlight of the trip was the opportunity to meet Alan before the concert on Saturday night. We were instructed to meet about 30 minutes before the concert. About 20 people including the fan club meet-and-greet winners were gathered together and taken outside the tent next to Alan's bus (and, of course, the term "bus" doesn't do justice to the beautiful mode of transportation)! One or two people at a time went in to meet Alan and have their picture taken with him. Alan was very "down to earth" as expected and seemed really happy to meet some of his fans. As each person left the tent, they also received an autographed picture of Alan. It was a wonderful experience and something that I will never forget.

Just to clarify my posting, we did NOT go on Alan's bus --- I was just referring to how it looked from the outside. In fact, it was pretty dark around the bus.

Sorry I misunderstood you Indiananative. Of course, just the M&G is wonderful. I'm hoping I get one for the Charlotte show or St. Augustine or Marysville!
