yesterday and today...

this weekend i went to see yesterday and today at the omaha community playhouse with some of my favorite friends.

this weekend was extra special at the playhouse because glass harmony had a show there also and we were able to pick up some cool blown glass ornaments for our tree!

yesterday and today has probably been my favorite show this season so far. not that the other shows havent been awesome- but i love love love the beatles- so this live concert style show where you request songs and interact with the band was absolutely amazing.

the mcguigan brothers, from bellevue, with their band did a fab job playing some of the beatles best. they had a totally groovy stage, killer stage presence and unbelievable talent.

the guys really did an awesome job connecting with the crowd and feeding off of our energy. by the end of the night we were all dancing our butts off in the aisles.
it really is a must see for any beatles fan!


the only bad thing about the show: i wished it was longer. i could have watched them all day!

you better believe that i'll be back to see the show at least once before it closes at the end of the month. who wants to go with me?
