When we started 2026, I didn't have any idea it would be the year of the 90's country concerts but I now wish EVERY year was that year. We had two amazing concerts and both would rank in my top 5 fav shows. I'd have to put Chris Stapleton as my top 1 concert but from there, the Chicks get #2 and Garth gets #3. It was great and only made better by the fact that Mom/Dad and Erin/Nate came too. Oh and the fact that we had a Sunday matinee show - 2:00pm start time. Why don't they start all concerts at this time!?! We grabbed lunch at Chilis, watched a little bit of the Bears game, saw the concert and made it home in time to see the Packers game end (a loss...booo!).
The show was great - it was fun to see a "big" concert and we had great seats. Erin made a Garth Bingo game which everyone around us found to be very entertaining.
Erin and I have been saying for years "if Garth ever tours again, we'll spend whatever it takes to be there" and we sure did make good on that oath. This concert took place less than a week after Dolly Parton passed, just another reminder that these artist from our childhood/early adulthood aren't going to be around forever and we've got to take the opportunities when they come! I suspect we'll be grabbing more 90's country concerts in the coming years.
Oh and I almost forgot! Add in the fact that it was Mom's birthday on top of it all....and we had a great day planned - it'll be hard to top this one.
