{Miranda Lambert - Locked and Reloaded}

Last Friday my best friend and I went to the Miranda Lambert Concert – Locked and Reloaded. We have been talking about going to Miranda together for years! She is both of our favorite and our biggest girl crush! Krista scored us Pit Passes months ago and we had eagerly been waiting. I took the whole day off on Friday so that I could spend time with my boys before the concert. Krista and the kids got into town around 12:30 so we met them at Chick Fil A for lunch. We ate and caught up and let the kids play. Then it was time to head home and get ready!

We got to Gexa around 4:30 and got a pretty good parking place. We went straight to the Will Call so that Krista could get her Miranda Meet and Greet. She was lucky enough to snatch one online. I tried and tried…but couldn’t get through!  

We stood in line for over an hour! It gave us time to lay out our plans, though! Our gate was right in front of the merchandise tent, so we decided it would be best to get our shirts first. We got them and scurried off to the venue. Pit tickets are first come first serve….so the earlier you get there the closer you are to the stage!  Everyone was going to the left of the stage because that’s where we entered the gate…so Krista and I hurried to the right side and we were able to get front row, right next to the stage!!! It worked out awesome!! 

We made some friends behind us and they helped me save Krista’s spot when she had to leave to get in line for the Miranda Meet and Greet!  But, my best friend is awesome and she took my shirt for Miranda to sign! They got 1 picture and 1 autograph. Goodness I love them (my best friend and Miranda). 

The Cadillac Three opened up. I have never heard them before.  I think they may have been okay, but the sound was muffled and not very good. Next was Brett Eldredge and I loved him. He put on a really good show! Dierks Bentley was up next. He's wild! He put on a great show, too! The JBM Band played out near the lawn while they setup for Miranda. My heart was beating so fast! I couldn't believe I would be standing inches from her!!!!

If you've never seen Miranda in concert...........GOOOOOO! She is awesome!!! More than I expected, and I expected a lot. She is definitely one of those artists I could watch over and over. 

I made a slideshow of the pictures because I took over 400 with my iPhone. Krista and I did not take our big cameras because the rules said no cameras with detachable lenses. But of course, everyone around us had them. Of course.
