My review, an excerpt from my Myspace blog. Monday, July 14th 10am Rachael and I are rushing around getting dressed, cleaning up the apt, throwing our bags back together, and getting out the door. Our secret plan is now in motion. It is a 6 hour drive from Houston to Texarkana, and Rachael and I are so excited. Once we finally made it to Texarkana, after a couple of missed turns, figuring out where we were and where our hotel was was crazy. We finally found it, got into our room and decided it would do for the very short time we would be there. Finally we make it to Shooters. We went in, found a table and settled in. We were so excited about our little surprize, when the frontman for the 1st band, High 4, pointed us out in the crowd as being there to see Marty Casey. hahaha It was okay though, we knew Marty still didn't know we were there. Shooters was by far the nicest venue they played while we were following them. The AC was great, the place was really nice, and the sound system was fantastic! As LAGs made their way on stage Rachael and I are so excited we are shaking all over. We see Marty, he is completely focused in that zone he goes into just before coming out on stage. In usual Marty style he comes on stage never looking at the audience yet and starts the 1st song, forgive me I can not remember what song it was. When his eyes made contact with the crowd he saw us. We could tell by the look on his face, he was surprized. In between songs he said something about our coming all that way. We were having the best time, knowing we had surprized him, and they sounded soooo good! I'm really loving these songs from the LAG's catalogue. I don't know what they sounded like when someone else was singing them, but I can tell you i'm lovin them as Marty is doing them. The crowd behind Rachael and I were wild for them, pushing us into the stage and all of these hands grabing at Marty, guys as well as girls, IT WAS CRAZY!! During This Town, when it was time for the scream, Marty put the mike between Rachael and I and we screamed as loud as we could. God it was such a great show, and I know Marty really appreciated all the love and support, which of course Rachael and I brought plenty of with us.When we spoke to Marty after the show he couldn't believe we had come all that way. I gave him the hat as a little something to take with him from Texas. Rachael and I had the best time together! We enjoyed seeing friends. We enjoyed our first Road Trip. We enjoyed seeing LAGs and the other bands. But most of all we enjoyed seeing Marty. LAGs played a song called, 'Never Enough' and I know Rachael would agree with me when I say, no matter how many times we saw him, it would NEVER be ENOUGH. It truly was THE BEST WEEKEND EVER!

Sharon, I love it! The whole weekend was The Best! And I won't forget Marty's reaction when he looked into the crowd, If only our eyes were cameras.

Rachael, Thanks for this video. The first few times I saw Jeremy, it was in conjunction with the LH. I honestly thought he was the youngest Kourelis brother! But he is seriously adorable! Linda

Awesome review Sharon and excellent pics both Sharon and Rachael!! You two are sooooooooooo lucky!!! Agreed lhfan4life!! They are SO lucky!!! I'll admit to having been lucky in the past since I live in the midwest, but right now I feel SO envious!! I desparately want to see LAG's and show Marty all of the support I feel for him. However work and personal circumstances are saying "no f***ing way!" Will do what I can, but it all depends on the timing.

Fantastic review Sharon! I'm so happy that the two of you were able to get there. Marty had to be totally surprised. Good thing that Dustin didn't ruin that for ya.

Rach, Sharon was quite confident that guys don't tell each other anything. Before, LAG's hit the stage, I had even, got to chat with Big AL, get his siggy on my shirt, get Chad's siggy and Jeremy's siggy, all before the concert.
