Keith Urban!!

Many people do not know who Keith Urban is unless you are a fan of country music. Well, he just happens to be one of my favorite country singers. This past week, I was lucky enough to go to his concert at Madison Square Garden. I went to the concert with my friend and we had floor seats. Our seats were amazing! We were the first section after the standing section. The opening act was a band called Sugarland, who just happens to be quite good. They preformed for a little more than an hour. Then Keith Urban played for almost two and a half hours. It was awesome! However, that is not the best part of the night. What really made this night so spectacular was that I touched Keith Urban. He was walking down the isle to get to the other stage. I reached my hand out along with the other crazy fans, and I touched his right shoulder. Then towards the end of the concert he walked down the same isle, and my friend and I touched his left shoulder. Well, I went bazurk I have never screamed so much in my life. I never thought I would react that way when I saw someone famous. He is just a person after all, but he is a gorgeous, Australian, country singing man, who I love.
