Peanut Met Kenny Chesney


Last Thursday, Kenny Chesney played Bloomington; tickets sold out in three minutes. We bought floor seats and went backstage. It's kind of a big deal because he's not going to tour next year.
Mary's camera was the star of the show: Backstage, Kenny's road manager used her camera to take our photo. As he pushed the button, the battery died. So I made chit chat with Kenny while she swapped out the battery. Then, a security guard came up during the show and tried to confiscate the camera because it has a detachable, telescoping lens (but everyone else in the building can take high quality pics and video!?!?)
The show was great - we got back to Champaign at 12:30pm. Rather than go to bed, I stayed up all night; I went in to work early. I ended up being awake 32 hours straight!
