WOLFMOTHER

Brandon and I went to see the Wolfmother show last night at The Depot. Best club to see a show in SLC--hands down. Their sound, stage, lighting, and overall venue are top notch.

Heartless Bastards opened. Fantastic band with a killer female lead singer. Worth the cost of admission just to see them.


So Wolfmother was all frosting after that. Tons and tons of delicious frosting. Our ears were nearly bleeding by the end of the show, but it was all worth it. They played every song we could have hoped to hear and more.

Championship Game

Brayden's team played in the finals today, going in 10-0 for the season. When I left my house in Lehi, it was pretty nice out. I had on just a hoody and my grandpa slippers on my feet. As I headed north on the freeway, I smacked right into a major snowstorm. Parallel parking is tricky when your back window is covered in snow.

#35, Brayden braving the cold


Hard to tell what was happening on the field with all that snow.





Brave fans



We went up 6-0 in the first half. The team sought shelter and warmth in a tent during halftime.


Then back out for the second half, crashing through their banner.


We scored again, making it a 12-0 shutout, earning an undefeated championship. The head coach teared up during his post game speech.

Jazzed

Some last minute tickets to a Jazz game came through last week from my company. I brought Scott with me and met up with Nicole and Carrie at the game. We had some great seats on the 7th row.

It was loud in there


Over to Z Tejas after for a late dinner. Holy crap was this burger good. I'm a sucker for a bacon, cheese, mushroom burger. But then again, who isn't?

Halloween 2009

Went to the first round playoff Real Salt Lake game with Callie, Brandon, and some others. Sadly, I found out today that there are no more home games this year, so unless I suddenly become a super fan, I probably won't be watching anymore games in person. We won 1-0 with a dramatic last minute goal.

The Parade of Kings was made up of all the little kids who dressed up for Halloween.


Went to a Halloween party with Holly after. She's a fox, I'm an army guy. Ammo vest + gun = costume.

The B-52's and SLC Real

Our annual convention was last week--busiest time of the year for me. One of the things I was over this year was the dance party. We brought in the B-52's, which blew the doors off. Seriously, the sound level was outrageously loud.

I snapped a quick shot of the gal's traveling wardrobe backstage.


The glow sticks we handed out were a huge success. With the black lights going, the place looked really cool.


Joey & Cali came up...


...with Ash and Cort


The B-52's. You'll have to take my word for it--my camera sucks.


Saturday night we closed out the week with the final Real home game of the season. We won 3-0 and it was awesome. Heading to the playoffs!
