Again...I have to thank Angela for giving me another free concert ticket. This time, we went to see George Michael! The Shocks are on a super tight budget right now. A ticket purchase for this concert was out of the question because the price did not fit our $25 or below rule. Angela to the rescue!! Plans changed and she offered me her other ticket. I jumped at the opportunity to see Hotty McNaughty. George Michael hasn't been on tour in 17 years! This was something I couldn't miss. We got to the Verizon center and were told that we could get into another line for better tickets. All of us in line were talking amongst ourselves, wondering how on earth we were scoring better seats. Our original section was WAY at the top in the nose-bleeds, so when we were handed tickets for the closest level to the floor, we were speechless. George knows how to perform a concert with style. The stage was one of the coolest set-ups I have seen in a long time.

He played everything I wanted to hear, but he left out "I Want Your Sex!" That was a shocker. He chose to end the night with "Freedom." He seemed very humbled by his past and glad to be back on tour in front of thousands of adoring fans. This was my second monumental concert of the year. Thanks Angela!
