I ask another friend... he can't go.. just got a job working nites at Walmart.. (this should have been a sign)..

I ask my mom... she can't go.. is in too much pain.. (this should have been a sign)..

I ask my best friend (who I know doesn't care for country music)... she agrees to go..

So......... we head out to go.. tickets in hand.. back stage pass secure...

45 minute drive to the fair.. no problem.. good opportunity to catch up with my best friend... right...


Wow, I'm really sorry about all of that, nobody should have that lousy of a day. But the whole trying to find someone to go with you reminds me of something a good friend has been saying (especially recently with a poker game and road trip that were cancelled because of people backing out)
You can't make people have fun.

Why is that?
