Seattle and the Adele Concert!

At the end of January, I was able to make a trip up to Seattle to visit my sister Jenny and go to a concert. We had been planning for this concert for three months. Jenny loves Adele, a new up and coming singer from the UK. I hadn't really heard about her until I realized some of her songs were on the radio and then I loved her. Jenny's birthday was in November and so I decided to look up tour dates. I was in luck, Adele was playing in Seattle on January 26th. I bought tickets right away. I didn't want to send them to her and so I waited until she came home for Thanksgiving. Then I took her out to dinner and the look on her face when she opened them was priceless.

So finally the time came to head up there. Besides the fact that the weather wasn't the best and I had been up all night on call, I made it to Seattle in one piece after drinking tons of coffee and calling Jenny tons of times to help me stay focused on driving. We had a nice relaxing day shopping, having chop suey with family, going to church and chilling at Jenny's apt. The next day I walked downtown to meet her for lunch and she ended up having the rest of the day off. We hit up a couple of stores and then went for happy hour at Umi Saki House. I had never been there, but will definently go back!

Monday night was the concert and we decided to drive the car up to the concert. We got there at a good time and were able to get a good spot next to the wall. James Morrison opened and I only knew one song of his. However, I loved him and went out that next week and bought a cd of his. Adele was so great to see in concert. She has such an amazing voice for someone so young. I was able to get some good pictures and record some songs. The concert wasn't nearly long enough and before we knew it, it was over. I would definently go see her again in concert!James Morrison
