Dating ABCs: R

This past weekend Ryan and I did something for our date that we haven't done in a while.... ROCKED OUT!! Don't get me wrong, we "ROCK OUT" in the car (and in the house) OFTEN {most of the time it includes me holding something and using it as a microphone}, but this was legit ROCKING OUT!!

Sunday night we went down to the House of Blues in San Diego for a concert - YAY! I used to go to shows all the time (in high school I was quite the Punk Rock Princess), but as we got older and the crowds got younger (along with the ticket prices getting higher) we have stopped going to as many concerts.


We were stoked when we found out that some of our friends (who are EXTRAORDINARILY talented) were actually opening for one of our favorites. We KNEW we just had to hit it up!


little hurricane opened the show - and they were AWESOME!! Tone and CC ROCKED it!! Ryan has know Anthony (well, that's what we know him by :)) for probably 7 years now. We knew him when he was still in an older band, when he got his pug Jedi, prior to him meeting CC (who he found on Craigslist - how amazing is that?!), and before they created the band, started touring and making it HUGE. {I consider having a song on Gossip Girl and on a Taco Bell commercial making it BIG} He came to our wedding and even helped with the sound for it (yup, we DJ'ed our own wedding, pretty funny, huh?!).

{PLEASE FORGIVE THE PICTURES, MY iPHONE IS OLD AND DOESN'T TAKE GOOD ONES, ESPECIALLY IN THE DARK... BUT I STILL WANTED TO CAPTURE THE MOMENT}

Tone and CC doing their thang!

CC even has a chandelier in one of her drums - AWESOME! 





{PS little hurricane just announced, this morning, dates for the tour THEY ARE HEADLINING!! Tickets go on sale Friday, so you better grab yours then!}

The headliner was John Butler Trio. Ryan and I had seen them before (actually when we saw them last it was John along with two other band mates...) and loved it. (Funny story, we saw them at 4th and B, it was pouring out and the ceiling was actually leaking all over the place. We normally don't get much weather in San Diego, so apparently the roof hadn't been checked in a while, which lead to it raining inside.) Ryan and I even danced to JBT for the first song as a married couple at our wedding!


So talented!
