Clay Walker in Montgomery

For our 33rd birthday several weeks ago, Ben and Brian gifted Alison and me with tickets and backstage passes to see Clay Walker in Montgomery, AL.  Alison and I have been huge Clay fans since we were 15 years old and he released his first single, "What's It To You."  We've seen him in concert countless times and have met him on a few occasions, but this was extra special because we were privileged enough to get a private mini-concert prior to the show.  Clay was charming and sweet (and adorable) as he strummed his guitar, told some funny stories, teased his band members, etc.  He sounds incredible live.  Alison and I aren't sure if we should be flattered or mortified, but Clay remembered us!  He walked into the VIP area and immediately said, "I've met you before, haven't I?"  Swoon.  We're probably banned from future shows and our names put on some stalker list.
 Having a few drinks before the show.  We drove to Montgomery and back from Atlanta all in one day, but it was totally worth it.  The drive was actually fun--no kids screaming in the backseat!
