Taylor Swift and Rascal Flatts Concert

For Cheyenne Frontier Days, Amy and I went to the Taylor Swift/Rascal Flatts concert. It was soooo fun! I've been to 3 other concerts, but none of them had the special effects that this one had. There was a big screen in the background that showed clips from their music videos and other things pertaining to the song they were singing. At the end, they shot confetti throughout the arena.

Before the concert, we had a little bit of time to burn, so we went on the octopus ride. It was quite exhilarating! It spun and went up and down at the same time. Here's Amy looking as cute as ever, right before we got on.


If you look closely, you'll see Taylor Swift in a sparkly blue dress, holding a sparkly guitar. It looked really neat. There was one part where she and her electric violinst banged on trash cans with drum mallets. I think it was my favorite part of Taylor's performance.

Here's an intermission picture. Turns out one of my friends, Kendahl, went to the concert with her sister too and we ended up right next to them! Kendahl took this pic and then I took a pic of her and her sister.

Here's Rascal Flatts! They were incredible. You could just feel their energy. My favorite song of theirs was "Stand". During the chorus, the screen lit up with 100 inspiring words like, "passion, dream, courage" etc. It made me feel so alive!
