Fun in Sugarland

Yesterday, we met our daughter Lindsey and hubby, Jeremy in OKC for a Friday night concert under the clouds. Under the stars sounds better but it was raining when we got to the capital city and it stopped at 4:30 pm. We took all our rain gear and headed to the Zoo Amphitheater for the show, only to find a mass of fans already in line.

We had seen Sugarland in Vegas for a limited set of songs and frankly we were looking forward to the opening act, Billy Currington. Billy is the guy who sings, " People are Crazy". He was very good in concert and blew everyone away when he sung Tracy Chapman's "Give me One Reason to Stay Here". We would have been satisfied to stop right there.

Sugarland came out and gave one of the most entertaining shows ever! Jennifer Nettles has a great personality and the whole band plays together like family. Many acts don't even know which city they are in but Sugarland is one of the exceptions. During the song, "Who says you can't go home" they showed a video of OKC landmarks, night spots and roads. Being September 11 one of their songs had a video that showed them at NYC ground zero and the OKC Memorial. Talk about cool. It was also Jennifer Nettles birthday!

Sugarland mixes all types of music, Country, 80s and 90s Rock, and Americana into a great, great show. This goes into a top concert list.
