For those who don't know, Pentatonix is an A Cappella group who won the Sing Off. The started as a trio from Arlington, TX (Scott, Mitch, and Kirsty) and added Avi and Kevin for their bass and beat boxer when they competed in the Sing Off.
I've been pretty busy lately and have not had any time to post about going to see Pentatonix before now. Even though school just started, I've already had a few quizzes and my first big test coming up on Tuesday. So, right now, Carol and I are in Saginaw, TX, staying with her best friend, her husband and little girl. The ride down was fairly eventful so I may post about that some other time.
Back to Pentatonix,
Pentatonix sang at the Levitt Pavilion in Arlington for their opening concert on their tour. It was an outside concert, and the best part about it: it was free!! We were originally planning to get to the venue at least one hour before the concert started to try and get semi-decent seats, but one thing led to another and we didn't get there until 20 or 30 minutes before the start of the concert. It was a pretty small venue and there were a million people there. Well, it seemed like there were a million, but it was closer to 12,000, which was still quite a few. We searched for a place to put our lawn chairs, but the only place we could find was way off to the side in the back and we could only see the front part of the stage. You could still see the performers, but Carol and I wanted to see the whole stage and I wanted to get closer to get some pictures. It actually turned out okay because Carol and I walked around until we found a pretty decent place to stand. I thought I'd mind standing for the whole concert, but it really wasn't bad at all. Of course, I took lots and lots of pictures and videos. Too many, I'm sure, but hey, there have got to be some good ones in there somewhere!
Any problems in getting there were completely forgotten once Pentatonix picked up their mics and took the stage. I couldn't help but smile at their first note. Carol and I got a little fan girl crazy when Avi started singing bass, I can tell you that much. I love to sing A Cappella music in choir, so it was great to hear Pentatonix singing live. What they do is so difficult, but they make it look easy!
I'm getting super tired, so I should probably go to bed before I start typing gibberish. But before I bid adieu, I will post some pictures!
Good night to all, and to all a good night!
Psalm 98:4
"Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music."
