Lexington & Louisville, KY

Well, I was trying to keep everything in order, but I'm waiting on some pictures from other sources to complete my entries on Lexington and Louisville. My camera has been acting up, but these two concerts were both especially memorable to me, so I will post pics later as I receive them. 

Lexington was one of the most energetic crowds we have played for yet! The hall was nice and the people were just fantastic. It really puts something special in the performance when you feel that enthusiasm coming from the audience!

Louisville will always be memorable because I was promoted to Staff Sergeant before this concert. For those of you who pay attention to detail, I have been wearing SSG rank on my concert uniform because those patches have to be sewn on a particular way and it would be almost impossible to have it done mid-tour. So I was a Specialist in Sergeant's clothing  until October 16th, when I was officially promoted. It was a good moment. I take the responsibility of how I represent the Army very seriously, and I am honored to serve at my new NCO rank. 

The Louisville concert was also at this awesome downtown theatre with a really great crowd. I will have pictures from this night posted soon, but I wanted to give my run down now, so that I can get caught up on our journey!
