Something huge happened today. Something so good that the chariots swept down from the heavens and bore me away. Today I met Sean Watkins. I know, it's pretty serious. In case you are unaware of this huge celebrity from my previous post, he is one third of the best band in history, Nickel Creek. He also has an impressive solo career.
My wonderful husband who is campaigning against my hermit-ism bought me tickets in December to see his new band "Fiction Family" formed with the lead singer from Switchfoot Jon Foreman. I was ten feet away from Sean. It was magical. Then the bassist from Nickel Creek sang and they jammed a little bluegrass too. Perfect.
And then, after the show, WE MET. Now, have you seen that commerical with the woman in the elevator with Mary J. Blige and she's her biggest fan but is too overwhelmed to talk to her? That was me. I freaked out. I was like "I'm such a fan, I love you". I was shaking. What I wanted to say was "Sean, you speak to my soul in a deep way. You wrote my favorite song which was the processional at my wedding. I'm your biggest fan. I'm moving to San Diego where you are from! How do you feel about hanging out?" BUT I just said "I'm a big fan" and then got my picture taken with him. He put his arm around me. This is a really big moment for me. The Biggest. Ever. Soooooo, here are a few pictures and video treats for you to enjoy!!
(Disclaimer: Please excuse my pathetically excited/crazy eyed face. Like I said- Big moment/excited)
