BB KING

 NUFF SAID!!!!

  

 For a while now Gabe has been a HUGE Blue's fan. In August he saw that BB King was playing in Nevada and totally without thinking of the fact that i would be 8 months pregnant decided we needed to go. He bought our tickets and hotel stay and we were set. He couldnt wait. I was actually getting very excited as well - not totally for the same reasons ;) but that's ok. 

We arrived, we got checked in, i cleaned myself up, we "gambled" a bit, i lost a dollar and was not happy, he won $.15 and left the voucher in our hotel room. We ate food - which was eh. We people watched which was interesting, we went to a freaky supermarket and bought markers so BB could sign Gabe's picture. We rested. We waited. It was finally time for us to go. 

Seriously, you would have thought he was a kid going to Disneyland. He could hardly contain himself. 

We get there, get our FRONT ROW SEATS, he buys me a shirt ;) i put the shirt on. More people start to arrive. The row behind us starts to fill up with 4 MEGA drunk, foul mouthed guys sitting right behind us. Me not happy. THEN................ the woman who get's to occupy the seat to my left arrives.. OH MY GOODNESS!!! Drunk, Drunk, Drunk.. This middle aged woman "who had to tell everyone that she was not with her husband" comes and sits down. Asks me if i have ever seen BB live before - i say no. She then says "OOOOOOOO, You can tell he loves what he doooooooooooooooos." I pray that i have a great time regardless of said middle aged drunk lady. BB makes his grand appearance after a wee bit of time with the horn section by themselves. He sits down a big guy hands him Lucy and he starts to play.... It was so much fun. Would have been more fun if i could have socked middle aged drunk lady out, but i didnt let her ruin it for me. BB is 87 years old, makes faces like a 87 year old and starts his stories totally forgetting where we was going with them like a 87 year old..He was wonderful. He referred to my baby as JR serveral times. Asked if Gabe was the father. Gave me a thumbs up. Rocked Lucy. Forgot how one of his songs went. Gave us some free stuff. Signed Gabe's picture and smiled the whole time... 

It was a great night.
