This concert was knock-your-socks off incredible. Life changing, moving,
exciting, high energy. Hmm my mind overflows with adjectives when I
think about it. I may or may not have burst into tears twice during the night. Words don't really suffice. These photos might help, but they still won't reflect my feelings of joy for this night.
I lurked outside this tour bus for a few minutes. Chris left me there.
The Crystal Ballroom is a historic building with mural-painted walls and sprung hardwood floors. It's got quite the past.
Kimbra opened for Gotye. She gets down onstage. Majorly.
Surreal artwork projected on the stage the whole time.
During Bronte. Guys. You know how I feel about Bronte.
A great view.
Banging the hell out of the drums during Eyes Wide Open.
The stamp to get into the concert. I considered getting this tattooed here. Chris talked me out of it last minute stating "It'll look like you just came from an amusement park. Every day of your life." I argued with "Yeah but that'd be cool, right?"
Chris and I exchanged gifts last night. I knew something big was in the works and I just couldn't wait till xmas. He was thrilled to hear he was getting a new CD player and speakers installed in his car, but thrilled is an understatement of my reaction to the gift he gave me.
Chris got us tickets to a Gotye show. In April. IN PORTLAND.
Here he is, in all of his handsome glory.
I have always wanted to visit Oregon. I almost went to college in Portland but then met my mister, so I stayed and set up camp at good ol' Weber State. Now we get to go to Oregon together to hear one of our favorite artists! I cannot wait.
Don't know who Gotye is? Not many do, so that's ok. Remember back when I blogged one of his songs for music tuesday.The Gotye pandora station has been on at our house nonstop. He's really quite extraordinary.
Here's another one of my favorite tunes. Oh I can't wait for this trip. Good surprise, Chris. VERY GOOD!
