I had to miss last night’s show. Too much stuff going on around our house and it was one of the first weekends we were actually at home in a long long time. Glad I didn’t have to stand in a queue near the venue to get cheap Country Megaticket tickets as Ifound them at http://www.goodseattickets.com/Country-Megaticket
