Wow! That is about all that can be said for this past weekend in the Music City. Friday night, Peter and friends put on a great show and, yes, Jimmy was there to watch and show support. Streetfest was great- the band was awesome and entertainment between sets kept everybody in the groove. Now to the highlight of the weekend.....the JB concert! So many great songs, seeing Kenny Chesney and hearing the great reaction and then to have Jimmy to give his flip-flops to my wife. Yea, she was like a kid in a candy store!
Now, if anyone by chance has a pic/video of the exchange, could you please email me at twofinzright@hotmail.com. Was way to shocked and in awe to get camera out of pocket quick enough. Know she would appreciate it and it would be the ultimate closure to a very eventful weekend. Happy Memorial Day to all!

On most days I say: "Wrinkles only go where the smiles have been...."
Sometimes I can only say: "There is no dumbass vaccine......"
If something or someone gets you down, just remember: "In a hundred years it all won’t matter.........."

Re: Nashville 2011
You could hear Jimmy say "these better not show up on eBay" on the radio so we were guessing that he had just given someone his flip flops. So glad it was someone we knew.

Re: Nashville 2011
huh....I know somebody who actually met/talked to Jimmy in Nashville. TWO BN'rs, in fact. But I'll let them tell ya what happened.
The concert was the best I've been to in at least 10 years. Great sound ! Great graphics ! Kenny Chesney guest appearance ! Jimmy and the band really did a fantastic job.
I could've done without the heat and cicada's, though. I popped a button off my shirt when it went down the front of it. Oh gah I hate those nasty things.
They were THICK there, almost armageddon-like. I'm glad we don't have them in our area of Tennessee.
