Last night Kevin and I went to the Tim McGraw and Faith Hill concert at the Savemart Center in Fresno, CA. It was a REALLY good concert! We had a great time!
Tim McGraw and Faith Hill came out together first and sang a song together and then Faith Hill began her portion of the concert. She sang "This Kiss", "Wild One", "Mississippi Girl", "The Way You Love Me", and others, including an Elvis and ABBA song. There was a break and then Tim McGraw and Faith Hill both came out and sang two songs together and then it was Tim McGraw's turn. He is very charismatic and had the crowd on it's feet for most of the rest of the concert! He sang "The Cowboy in Me", "Real Good Man", "Indian Outlaw", "Something Like That", and a touching version of "If You're Reading This", and many others, including Lora's all-time favorite "Live Like You Were Dying". As he sang that song, the audience sang along with him louder than we did for any other song, and at the end, I thought I saw Tim wiping tears from his eyes. He said, "THAT is exactly why we do this every night! To hear that like that! It doesn't get any better than that! Thank you."
The concert began at 7:50pm with a warm up band, Lance Miller. At 8:20pm the Tim McGraw and Faith Hill concert began and it ended at 11:45pm. It was like seeing two concerts! We definitely got our money's worth! (technically speaking of course -- thanks for the tickets Mom!) We were up in the balcony in section 204, but it didn't really matter, as the stage was in the center of the arena with four arms that extended out to all the sides, so Faith Hill and Tim McGraw were often right below us.
Faith Hill mentioned at one point that they really like Fresno and that they would like to come back. We hope they do!
