Macklemore takes Portland

It's quite possible I mentioned to Rhett five hundred and three times over the past 6 months that I reallllly wished we could go to the Macklemore & Ryan Lewis show.  We've had an expensive year and are rebuilding some cash money funds, so dinero for shows just isn't in the budget right now.  Plus, there was no way we'd be taking in the Macklemore show without Tristen, which meant 3 tickets instead of 2.  Tristen introduced us to Macklemore wayyy before the whole world knew who Mackelmore was and it wouldn't have been fair to go without him.  A few days before the show Rhett got an email from a mutual friend of Macklemore's cello player saying she needed a ride to PDX from Seattle, and would comp some tickets in exchange for a ride. And my fantastic hubby volunteered cause he knew it would make my day.  How cool is that and how awesome is he.   ** insert clapping hands and cartwheels! **  I was on cloud nine to be able to take Tristen to his first big arena show.  And Macklemore was AWESOME.  The energy that comes out of him is nuts.  The guy has a message and he preaches! AND yes, it's true: He crowd surfs every show.  Not once, but twice. Our photos of it are a blurred hot mess, but trust me.  It was supa cool.  ;)

2 dancers tagged along for the ride too!
