So Close, But Yet So Very Far Away..

With only 10 days left to see Mr. Urban, the anticipation is getting a little too much to handle. I'm already starting to plan out my outfit...and trying to plan out what I'd say if I actually DO get to meet the man of my dreams. I mean, I know that I'd just be a blubbering (and probably crying) mess...but it's always good to have a game plan. Anywho, I can't wait! I'm so excited that I get to share 2nd row with the coolest cousin in the world, Vicky, and am equally excited that my parents are going to see him too - they will be instant Keithaholics :)

It's Official...Keith has Fans of ALL Ages..

Yesterday Keith was given the award for Favorite Male Country Artist at the 2010 Teen Choice Awards....YIPPEE!!!

Fingers Crossed

Today I was able to put my name into the pool for a chance to MEET Keith at the Vermont show! Keep your fingers crossed that it all works out for me...I've NEVER gotten one before!

"Take It To The Limit" with Keith & Dierks

Here are a few clips from the Keith concert I went to in Roanoke, VA. The first is a clip I saw on youtube of Keith and Dierks singing "Take It To The Limit." Unfortunately the video cuts out while Keith discovers that Dierks has the lyrics written on his arm. The second video is one that I took at the end of the show. Enjoy!

Ten Prime Keith Urban Hits

CMT News recently published an article distinguishing Keith's top 10 hits as defined by CMT.com staff members Craig Shelburne, Christopher Parton, Stephanie Pendergrass and Calvin Gilbert. The group identifies Keith as taking "a more subtle approach, building his career largely on songs of optimism, personal freedom and a mostly idealistic view of love and romantic relationships." These are the exact characteristics that make women across the world not only fall in love with Keith, but with his songs as well. I, myself, have experienced this love for Keith for many years now, which only intensifies during heartbreak.

The top ten songs are as follows:
Better Life
But for the Grace of God
Days Go By
I Told You So
Making Memories of Us
Raining on Sunday
Somebody Like You
Stupid Boy
Til Summer Comes Around
You'll Think of Me

Keith at Mohegan Sun: Night One

Studio Session Blog

So I've been super busy this summer and haven't paid quite as much attention to keithurban.net as I'd like to. With that said, I did a little investigating this morning and found a really cool Studio Session Blog that can be found by visiting keithurban.net, clicking on the "news" tab, then "Studio Sessions." It's a neat blog written by Brad that documents the process of making Keith's new album. There are pictures, videos, special messages from Keith, and a full description of what's going on in the studio. A great addition to Keith's site!

Countdown To Keith

It's that time of the year again: Keith Concert Time!!! That's right, in a mere 34 days I'll be basking in the 2nd row with my cousin, Vicky, as Keith takes on the Champlain Valley Fair in Essex Junction, Vermont. Having been to almost 10 Keith concerts thus far, I must admit that I am still just as excited for this concert as I was for my first. What's extra special about this concert is that 1) I'm sitting in the 2nd row, which is BY FAR closer than any other starting position seat at a Keith concert, and 2) my parents are going!!! Since the first time I saw Keith at Mohegan Sun I've been trying to talk my parents into going to one of his concerts, or rather "experiences," and they're finally going! Although I'm sure it won't be as intimate of a concert because it's outside, at a fair, and he won't have a catwalk, I can't wait for my Dad to see all of his guitars, his voice, and his AMAZING stage presence. I only hope they gain the respect for Keith that I've always had...
