So last night I went to see Mandy Moore with some girls from work. (see below.. drinking some yummy 2$ PBR) She was playing at Sokol (yuk-o) and us and about 90-100 other people jammed with her to her new music.. that nobody knew.. for only about 1 hour. At the end she did play "Candy" and made it a little jazzy - very cool - and the crowd went NUTS! It was a great way to end the concert.
The opening act was Ben Lee. I have heard of him.. I think. We got there right after he finished his set. But we still had to get a picture with him, pretend we loved him, and tell him he did a "KILLER JOB DUDE!" Because when was the next time I could get a picture with someone famous!
One of the pics of Mandy. I had several.. she was very close. She is pretty and sweet and she said "You guys are great! I F@#$ckin love you Omaha!" I could not believe sweet little Mandy dropped the "F" bomb. She also rubbed her nose a lot. My coworkers think she might have been high. She is very earthy ... and stuff now. The pop is all gone.
I will say though, she sounded GREAT! She has a really great voice and sounded just like her CD, if not better.. you know how some people sound worse in person, she was great.
My coworkers did faint at one time because we couldn't believe how close we were to Mandy Moore. Luckily I held it together long enough to take a picture..

Jill, awesome pics. (You look hot! Your co-workers are, too.) Kind of a bummer that only 90 other people were there. Hmmm.
Ben Lee has been in us as he and Claire Danes used to date. FYI.
Jay would be so proud of you drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer! Glad you had fun, girl!
Ew. I meant Ben Lee has been in Us. The magazine. The other way makes "us" sound kind of slutty.
I thought that is where I had seen him/heard his name! whew.. thank you!
John too would have been proud of the PBR's I'll have to tell him.
Go Jill...I have a CD of Mandy Moore and I kind of like one of the songs, Moonshadow (it's an old one she redid) did she sing it?
oh yeah! She did sing Moonshadow. that one rocked! And she did the cover of the song by Billy Joel - you gotta be a big shot.. or whatever its called. that was her enchore. whoo ooo
Love the pics. Although we're cooler than your work friends, they look fun. :)
