Traveling Fates Show

<span class=On Sunday we were invited to a concert that was being held just a few blocks from our house. The band is a great group of ladies who I had met in March when they were part of an awesome book tour/show that came here. They are friends with my longest bestest friend, Kythryne and a new friend of mine, Song who I met in March and who I also was able to hang out with in May when I went to New Hampshire to visit for Kyth's birthday. Anyway, we sort of know each other through mutual friends.
We dropped Scott off at the airport earlier in the day and so it was just me and Chance for the concert. We got all dressed up and took the car, we could have walked but it was cold and dark so we drove.

The concert was held in a place I had never heard of before, The Backyard Ballroom. It is basically a black box theater that has been built in someones backyard, which was great. Brilliant idea! They usually house theater productions but tonight it was all music, the group is three ladies with their own solo projects who travel and perform solo as well as do tours as the group we saw tonight. It was lots of fun, I am a fan of two of the three of them individually (S. J. Tucker and Bekah Kelso) and the three of them together are excellent, hopefully one day I will be able to actually buy their albums.

Chance liked the music too, he was dancing in the aisle and clapping his hands, he even sang along to one of the songs. There was also a funny moment when they told a joke on stage and no one in the audience really laughed not because it wasn't funny but because people were being quiet, then in the silence following the joke Chance said "That's funny" then everybody laughed, he might not have known why it was funny but he understood that it was a joke and so it was funny. As the only little guy there he also got a song dedicated to him.
I picked a spot on the aisle in the back row, by the door just in case he was too loud or something and we needed to make a quick exit and even though that was only 4 rows of folding chairs away from the stage we were too far away for Chance, as you can see in this last picture he moved on up and took a seat in the front row all on his own.
