Lit Concert + Mars (the planet)

A few years ago I met Lit and hung out backstage. Back then I wouldn't even go to a concert unless I had backstage access. Needless to say, I've met a lot of bands. Lit was my favorite. They are cool guys. A Jay stands out for me the most.

Anyway, when I found out that they were going to be putting on a free show at the Empire Ballroom in Las Vegas, I immediately invited some friends. We were hooked up with a reserved private table above stage left. The cute waitress brought us a wonderful black cherry vanilla vodka, numerous juices, sodas, and Red Bulls. Lots of cocktails, good company, great music.. Las Vegas Magazine had me pose for some pictures. Who knows? Maybe they'll be published!

There were two attractive women whom I wanted to give my phone number too so I kept throwing business cards. After one landed on stage and one of the band members said ,"Hey! Some girl just threw us her business card!", I realized that my plan wasn't working.

Funny thing happened that night. I dropped my cell phone while in the bathroom. I had just entered the stall and before I had the opportunity to do anything, my cell phone fell out of my purse and into the toilet! It was still on but wouldn't allow me to do anything (even dial). After taking out the battery and putting it back in, it never turned back on again.

Lit put on a great show. The sound quality of the club was excellent. The staff was very professional. Nice club! We had a great time.

Afterwards four of us drove to the mountains to look at Mars. It wasn't the size of the moon. Not at all. Don't get me wrong, the sky was absolutely beautiful...I was just disappointed because I thought the "once in a lifetime" show was going to be big..
