Where am I? Who are you people? Where are my pants?!?!
Wow. That's all I keep thinking. Did the past five days actually happen?? Because honestly, I'm waiting to wake up tomorrow and someone say "So, you excited for IBMA next week?". IBMA although different from last year, far surpassed even what I could have imagined it to be. When the flight attendant said "Ladies and Gentleman, welcome to nashville" there are no words as to how happy I was. Rhiannon and I had more fun in nashville than should be allowed. And that was without me getting into the bars. I wrote this all down in my real journal, but as I said there, there just are not enough words in a page to tell what an awesome time we had. So, to make you all jealous, I wrote down my highlights.
Meeting Rhio in the airport and taking a taxi to the hotel. Like a big person.
Having Pat meet us in the hallway and take us for a tour downtown.
My roomates- Pat, I.F, Geoff, and of course Rhi
Going on a tour of the grand ole' Opry. (ticket- $6.00, chance encounter of A.K & Union Station jamming
with Ricky Skaggs during a soundcheck- Priceless)
Singing with Rhio and rockin' out together in the hotel room.
Hanging out in VP's room friday night watchin' every jam, then staying up all night with Geoff, and Rhio, and then going for breakfast with the rest of the group, Rhio and I hanging out with Lily and Frank Carter, and then not actually going to sleep until Sunday morning.
Singing in various Jams at the Ren hotel.
Dogfinn!! Dogfinn was deffinetly one of my favorite things about last weekend. He was going to be on my first flight to Nashville, we sat in the turminal eating chocolate and reading. But the first plane had a fuel leak, so they rescheduled Dogfinn for today, since he would have missed his connecting flight to Norway.
Ahh..so much to talk about, so little time to do the school work that needs to be done by tomorrow morning. Every once and awhile I get to enjoy the hell out of being 19..and that trip is one I will keep with me for a long time.
