Christmas with Peter Breinholt

Christmas time for Debra and I means another Peter Breinholt concert. We got on Trax and rode that up to SLC, Sandie was working there that night so we got a ride home from her. So here's us freezing at the Trax station! We had perfect seats right in the center with lots of leg rooom... if I only we could've been sitting where those people were, right up front... {*wink wink*} Such a great concert and really got me in the Christmas spirit! Debra and I went and bought some CD's after the concert was over and since we had to wait for Sandie we decided we would finally get the band to sign our CD's since this had to be the 8th concert we had been to and had yet to do that! Here's our picture with the man himself, Peter B!
Short version of what happened after the concert...
While waiting for Sandie to be done with work, Peter was still out talking to his fans and he was asking people if they were coming back for the 2nd show on Monday, I over heard this and piped up and said "I wish I was coming back but it's sold out." He said "actually we just opened up the orchestra seating and I could comp you guys some tickets!" SCORE!!!!!!! We were all over that. Debra emailed him and he put us down on the list. So we went back up on Monday evening and Debra brought along 2 friends and Matthew joined us up there. And guess where our seats were?? Yup, right where those people were sitting in the above photo! So awesome! He even played a song that I requested, I felt so special.
Here's the 3 sisters leaving the concert, we had to have proof that we were all up there!
Peter's opening act was James Conlee... Amazing singer! We bought his CD too. If you go to his website (here) he has a free download, so you can check him out! He does an amazing version of O Holy Night, his whole CD is so awesome!

We may be the biggest dorky Peter B fans on the planet, but I honestly love his shows and am glad we get to see them together! He told me that we're officially "in" now... don't know what that means, but I'm stoked! Bring on more shows Peter AND James Conlee... he's amazing grace!
