Maroon 5

So Jessica Bentley posted on Facebook that she wanted to go to see the Maroon 5/Kelly Clarkson concert at the Gorge and wondered if anyone wanted to go with her. So I talked it over with Ry and he said I could go. We got tickets and then Jacklyn Adams said that she wanted to go so she got a ticket too. The morning of the concert was spent at soccer games in the pouring rain. I almost cancelled after that morning. But we headed out around 2:00, stopped in Spokane Valley to do some shopping, drove to Moses Lake and had some dinner since we had time to kill and Jaclyn's friends were saving us seats. We got there right after the opening act finished but they had just announced that they were going to wait for the wind gusts to die down before starting the concert. So we went and bought some tshirts and waited for about 2 hours before Adam Levine got up and told us the concert was cancelled because of the weather. It was barley sprinkling. It was nothing compared to that morning at the soccer fields! So we packed up and headed to the car. It was chaos!! It was total gridlock and there were cars everywhere at a stand still. We could not find the row where my car was parked because most of the signs had blown off the light posts. We walked around for another two hours before we found our car but then we were out of the parking lot in 15 minutes. It turned out to be a good thing because we got home around 2 in the morning and if there would have been a concert we probably wouldn't have gotten home until the next morning and I had to teach the 5th Sunday lesson. Still had a good time but I'm not sure if I'll be going back to the Gorge any time soon.
