Pregnant at a Hanson Concert - Dream Come True!

On Wednesday I got to see Hanson at the Carnegie Music Library in Pittsburgh!! Woo hoo! This was one of the shows they had to cancel in the fall due to them being sick. The funny thing is, I wasn't pg yet when they were originally supposed to do the show (Oct 13), but I got to be 19w3d at the make up show. Seeing them again was such a thrill!


The set list was to. die. for.!! They played a nice mix of songs, but it was the random ones that made it the best ever. They played "Sunny Day" off of their 2011 member's EP with a mix of "Cecelia" by Simon and Garfunke which sounded really cool together. I love it when they do covers! Ike sang "River" for his solo, not a song you hear very often. Taylor shocked everyone in the audience and sang "Never Let Go" for his solo. It's off of their 2005 member's EP and it's one of those songs everyone loves, but they've only played it a hand full of times (at least that's what it seems like). It's such a beautiful and heart wrenching song.



And then, as if it couldn't get any better, Zac sang "Oh Darlin" by the Beatles.... My heart about stopped!! My two favorite bands mashed together... Hanson doing a Beatles cover!!! OMG I could have died happy right there. Best. Set list. Ever.!!


They also played "Penny and Me". KJ and I are pretty set on what we're going to name our little girl, but we're still tossing some names around. Penny is one of them. I thought how cool would that be if I got to take my little girl to a Hanson concert to hear the song she was named after before she was born. It would certainly make a nice story!

Lots of Love,
KJsbabe

  1. Can I just say how jealous I am? It's been since about 1998 or 1999 since I've seen them in concert! Glad you had a great time. I hope they come near us again soon! They came to Knoxville last year, but we weren't able to go.
