Boyce Avenue Concert SLC

Boyce Avenue is David's favorite band in the whole wide world. The girls and I are pretty big fans, too. We frequently find Allyson and Katelyn sitting on the couch with the ipad watching their music videos and playing their music and singing along. It's pretty cute. As soon as we found out they were coming to Salt Lake City for a concert, we bought tickets to go. The concert was the night of Kyler's 1st birthday, March 17th. We had a birthday party at my mom's house and then she kept the kids for the night so we could go party! ... he would be asleep at the time of the concert anyway, so we didn't feel too bad about going on the day of his birthday.

We had VIP passes to go to a meet and greet with the band members before the show. David was so concerned about getting there to pick up our VIP passes, that he wouldn't let us eat dinner before we went cause "there's no time!!" We were the first ones in line and ended up standing in line FOR.EV.ER before they even passed out the VIP passes. lol

My husband, the groupy. ;)

Something about paying money to meet someone feels a little awkward to me, but David loved every minute of it ... he'd of paid double to do it all over again (which he probably will someday very soon).

A little over a year ago, I surprised David with a plane ticket to Arizona to go and see Boyce Avenue with his brother at a concert they were doing at a place called, "The Deuce". I was uncomfortably 8 months pregnant with Kyler at the time, so there was no way I was going. David and his brother got there so early before the show, they ended up running into the band members before the show started, and they got to talk to them for a while.

When we went to the meet and greet in SLC, the guitar player (Fabian) recognized David and said, "Hey! You're the guy from the Deuce!" It was pretty awesome that out of all the people they meet at all of their concerts, that he would recognize David. That totally made his night.

We got a picture with all the band members. David chatted with them for a couple minutes. They gave everybody who bought VIP passes a small poster of the band. I liked the colors on the poster and thought that maybe when I get around to decorating Kyler's room it might be a good decoration to put on his wall, so I asked Alejandro (the singer ... and multi instrument player) to sign it to all 3 of our kids. I think they'll like that when they get a little older. :)

I think we were probably one of the top ten oldest people at the concert, but it was a lot of fun. We were on the front row ... thanks to starving ourselves to get there early. ;) David screamed like a girl the whole time. It was pretty funny. He loves the guitar player, Fabian, and he kept yelling his name saying, "YEAH!!! FABIAN!!! WOO!!!" I think he might not have been used to hearing MEN scream his name, cause every time David would do that Fabian would break a smile. He gave David a guitar pic and the set list with all of the songs they played. It was pretty awesome!

It was an amazing concert!! Check out their music on youtube if you haven't already. :)
