Tonight was a Blast! Chris and I went to Austin, TX to the famous Moody Theater to cover the band Styx in concert.
Chris interviewed the band and was invited to come take pictures of show. Since we had media passes were able to sneak in before the show and Chris was on the floor taking pictures. I love going to concerts and it really reminded me of my days working as a public relations director at an entertainment venue. I got to meet their public relations intern who was really sweet. We really hit it off great! Talking to her I had flashbacks from when I was an intern back in the day. She asked me a lot of questions about the business and we had fun sharing meet and greet stories, and funny stories about some the artist and bands crazy demands. It felt great to get out in the music world again. I realized that I do miss that work sometimes.
I'm not a big fan of Styx but Chris is a huge fan. They were very nice and put on an awesome show. Although I was disappointed they didn't sing my favorite song, "Mr. Roboto" but they did sing all their other big hits like "Come Sail Away" etc.
Chris has met Styx several times while working in LA as a publicist for Anthony Michael Hall and has always loved seeing them live. It was definitely a great night. We don't get out too much with Chris working evenings and me with the boys but luckily my Mom was in town and offered to watch the boys so we could go.
Hope to have more nights like this in the future. I LOVE Austin It's a laid back, fun music city right up my alley. I'm blessed to live so close to such a famous music city!
