A couple of weeks ago Aaron managed to land a couple of tickets to the sold out concert of "The Killers". Woo Hoo!!! Only problem was that they were in Louisville, KY so we decided to plan a last minute trip to see my parents in Lexington for several days and drive the hour and half to see them. It was such a great weekend. We ate well, went to see 3:10 Yuma at the movies, enjoyed some antique shopping, and explored the river behind my parents house. We also enjoyed their beautiful rain since we haven't been able to get any in NC. Gotta have something to keep the Blue Grass state.....uh, blue?
Here we are at the concert. The locale couldn't have been better to see this band. The theater was this cool, gothic, deco place that was small enough to really enjoy them even with though we had possibly the worst seats in the house. The show was AWESOME!!! Aside from the person screaming like a little girl in my ear (okay, she was a little girl) we couldn't have enjoyed it more. If you're not familiar with The Killers, they have been called "the best British band to come out of the United States" because everyone thinks they are British. But they're from Vegas. As you could tell from the stage set up. The lead singer also plays the keyboard and has it displayed in front with antlers, artificial flowers, and Christmas lights all over it.
In a more natural setting......here is Aaron kayaking behind my parent's house. We had no idea that the river was as large as it was and so gorgeous! This was the pup's first voyage and they were great. They just folded their paws over the side and looked around all alert and cute. We'll have to get them little life jackets.

Ah yes the teal kayak. Not...the teal cadillac.
I totally forgot about that! That was so funny. Couldn't you see Aaron driving around in a huge teal Caddy?
Oh nice, The Killers are pretty darn cool-sounding. Matthew and I have stumbled across their music videos before on The Tube, and I like the song "Smile like you mean it" from their band's site. I'll download more of their stuff for my iPod! Groovy. :-)

We are not normally concert-goers but made an exception after hearing how great they sounded live on You Tube. It was great. They are one of those bands that have sooo many good songs on each album which is hard to find.
