    She put on a great show in a great venue. Old town school of folk is tiny, maybe a couple hundred.

    I also saw Garth Brooks Twice this fall! Those were both great shows! Should really be on my top 5 list but I'm not sure how country music is viewed on here so I left those shows off. This year was a good concert summer for me. :)
