Last night Baby got to experience the amazingness of Hanson live! I'm pretty sure she liked it because she started kicking a lot after a few songs. I got a whole lot of attention from my shirt. I probably got my picture taken about ten times but fellow fans. Too bad it didn't spark some attention from Hanson themselves. Haha.
We made it a little late for the one mile walk that they have before each concert. We caught the end of it but I'm actually glad we didn't do the whole thing because it was so hot outside. We were sweating bullets from the little that we did walk and I already felt exhausted from that. We've already been to two other walks other than this one. We decided next walk we will take Baby J along in a stroller and Penny too! We saw a lot of people with their kids and dogs.
We took a break at starbucks to cool off and wipe off our sweat. lol. Then we sat out in the heat for about another two hours. Oh the things I do for Hanson. And I'm so lucky to have a husband who is willing to go through it with me. I don't know if I have ever sweat so much in my life. But it was all worth it. There was actually a girl who was standing in front of us that passed out once we were inside waiting for Hanson. We felt so bad for her. It had to have been heat exhaustion. She walked away then fainted in the middle of a crowd of people twice! We got her friends attention to help her then Jordan and I looked at each other and pulled then pulled out our waters and started chugging it. We saw her by the end of the concert and she was fine but embarrassed I'm sure.
Hanson is known for being late. When it says the concert starts 8 it really means about 9:30. My feet were killing me way before they even came out. We had to go through two opening acts before they even came out. I was tired, hungry hot and being almost eight months pregnant does not help matters. So I was feeling very impatient. It's not like you can just go and find a seat and wait a while before they come out. At a Hanson concert you need to pick a perfect spot in the crowd and stay there. Hanson fans can get pretty feisty. We witnessed almost two cat fights happen right next to us because some girls squeezed their way in front of other girls that had been standing there for 2 hours already. It was pretty entertaining to watch.
As usual, Hanson put on an amazing show. I danced and sang along to every song and tried not to bump the girl in front of me with my belly. Near the end I felt like my bladder was going to explode and I couldn't take it anymore so we decided to lose our precious spots and go to the bathroom. Luckily they only had a few more songs left so I wasn't missing out on much. But I did walk away at one of my favorite songs. "Penny and Me."
I came to realize that I didn't quite have the energy or patience this time around. It was still worth waiting in the heat, standing on my feet for 5 hours straight, getting my full bladder kicked by baby J and feeling exhausted. I wanted to wait after the concert to see if Hanson would come out so I could take a picture with them but by that point all I wanted to do was sit down and eat something. lol. So I passed it up. It's not like I haven't met them a few times already and gotten pictures with them :)
