Concert weekend

Aaron and I got to go see Mason Jennings in concert at the Orpheum Theater in downtown Minneapolis last night, thanks to my dad (a birthday present). The concert was great! I was worried I wouldn't know many of the songs, because I don't have a full album of his work, not even one, I have just downloaded songs from the internet, and kept the ones I liked. Fortunately, I had downloaded fairly popular songs!

The opening act was Zach Gill, from California. He sang witty songs, clever lines, and made the audience laugh. He reminded me of a non-country Jalan Crossland, for those of you who know who he is. Then Mason Jennings came out, and had Zach Gill on keyboard for most of the show, except for the songs that didn't require keyboard, or the songs that Mason himself played keyboard. I have some pictures from the concert that were fairly decent, considering we weren't close enough that a flash bulb would do any good, and I had to take a bunch with different ISO and exposure settings to get it just right.








We weren't terribly close, but it was a small theater, with good sound, and no one was sitting in front of us, so that always helps :)

Here are some videos I found on YouTube, as well.





I could only find a couple that I could link from YouTube that weren't live (just doesn't sound as good). Oh well. Enjoy! I know I did!
