I did not see Mrs. Farrar (unfortunately, I wouldn't know her if I saw her as I have no idea what she looks like). But Shannon Lyon did say he had the entire family with him.

Okay, which one of you guys was the brunette standing right up at the very front, in front of Jay? I assumed you were from the board but didn't want to go up & say something.

Oh, that is too bad! I am one of the lucky people going to this show and I will be sure to post a review tomorrow.

Good news is Shannon Lyon is opening and he's a fanatastic singer/songwriter (not to mention, a total hottie!!).

It looks to be a fantastic show!!!! :D

I don't need a break fro...
