As Kip opens with β High Hopesβ. It sends me into a different dimension.
What an incredible explosion of energy, passion and a great blast of his own Country Music. With his own twist of rock, Country and written from his soul for living a life of intensity and lessons learned. He certainly had me and many in the audience smiling and feeling a massive glee.
He I am listening to the album β Solitary Tracksβ and what an amazing album it is. It sends me back to concerts I ventured with my friend Phil. Two years apart, our first concert being in May 2023 in Manchester where we met my friends Donna and Catherine from my Line dance nights. Β Friends who are purely great , who touch me with sprinkles of sparkles. β¨.
Β This time around in this last summer of 25, Phil and myself ventured to Manchester again. Different location to our last gig but was a truly amazing experience Mr Smiley . Phil truly wears an amazing smile, Iβm not sure if Iβve learned to smile like he does. That comes with the gift of letting go I guess. On this day we found our parking spot on a designated hired driveway somewhere and only a few hundred yards from our destination. We sourced somewhere to have a drink and something to eat. The only was it didnβt have the Kip Moore vibe! πβ¨. It was a Chinese run sports hall . A good experience. Then we sourced a pub just at the side of the Theatre.
What an amazing afternoon it was. Kipβs coaches where parked there , just alongside all where the action was going to take place. We had couple of drinks on this great sunny day , we sat outside on a bench watching all the fans start to make their way to the theatre. Chatting to fellow fans and asking where they are from. A group were Β from Lincoln and some from Wrexham of all places.

( a missed gig)
Oow and a sparkling moment of the day was meeting Kipβs Guitar Technician. I canβt remember his name but we had a photo taken with him. Amazing.

Β Kips explosive energy had me in awe. With β learning as I goβ and βLike ya stole itβ, Tough Enough, – Flowers in December . All amazing songs.
β Pretty Horses β is one of my favourites, I canβt quite remember him singing that one. All in all Kip and his music has me hooked.
I do have other musical interests and in my younger years I have seen a few bands , meeting the old crew from the original β Big Country β, not a bad thing. Being only 3 feet away from Gretchen Peters in her gig in Southport a few years back. Seeing Bon Jovi and Slade a few times. My list is quite big and I wouldnβt want to inflict this on you. You can always ask me.. haha. Though I will say β Paul Youngβ had a wonderful solo voice π.
Good ol rock and roll. . Iβm not a great concert goer these days . I do have a few friends who see lots of different bands especially in the Country scene. These days Iβm not a great adventurer but Iβm hoping to be more of one. I certainly am in lifeβs mysteries and love for nature and of course learning about myself, growing into , learning to be a person I admire more. I will always find time to see the amazing Kip Moore. I remember purchasing my first Kip compact disc from HMV in Southport a few years ago. The two guys on the counter were having a giggle with themselves asking who is Kip Moore ? .
Well I can shout it to them across the airwaves. Kip Moore is Blinking Amazing! ππβ¨ππ .
Keep shining and believing in yourself. πβ
Lots of love from my corner of the world π β¨ππ.
