Last Friday me and the grandparents went to Las Vegas to help my family down there. We got there about 3 pm Friday afternoon. Had a blast with the kiddos. Playing mommy for them is fun. Its so funny though cause they don't listen to my grandparents much. But they listen to me all the time.
Monday morning we left and drove to Mesquite. My grandparents get free rooms at the Virgin River Hotel and Casino. So we stayed till Thursday morning. They gave me money to gamble and its really not that fun. But anyways.
Wednesday night is when I had the most fun. Waiting for the drawing to end, I was in the Lounge Room where there is usually a live band playing. Well American Made Band was there. You can check them out at www.americanmadeband.com or on facebook. Anyways. During their 2nd break the guitar play came and started talking to me. We talked the entire time during his break. He lives in Salt Lake by the airport. They dedicated a love song to me. I don't remember the name. The next song they played he jumped off stage still playing his guitar. He had one of those wireless things that hooks up to the amp. He ran over to me and asked me if I knew how to 2 step. I told him yes but its been so long. So he ran back up on stage and played the part where he had to step on the pedal to change the sound of the guitar. After that was done he ran back down to me and told me to put my hands on his shoulders. So I did and we started dancing while he was still playing the guitar and singing. I had never seen anything or done anything like it. I messed up a couple times cause its been sooooo long since I've 2 stepped. But after the song was done he went back up and played till his next break. We talked on every break they took. Then danced during one of the breaks cause they put music on during them. He dedicated a few more songs to me and played a few of my requests. When they were done playing he invited me to go to his show in April in Wendover, I told him I'd try and make it.
So this afternoon when we got home I looked at their website and the band is older than I am. Jeff (guitar player) is probably about the same age as my dad (Kev). I knew he was up there cause he's got grey in his beard. But I really don't care. My intentions are not to get with him. He's just a real sweet fun guy that I met and I am probably going to become real good friends with.
I really can't wait to see them play again. They are great. They've opened for tons of different bands including Garth Brooks and a few others. You really should check them out. Again its
www.americanmadeband.com and they are on facebook also.
