Last night, Emily and I got to go see the Yanni Voices concert at the Nutter Center thanks to One2OneNetwork. As an added bonus, we also got to go with lots of other cool bloggers, including Andrea, Amy, Erin, Casey, and Emily (DesignHERMomma, not to be confused with the Emily of this here blog.) Some of the girls were even brave enough to bring their spouses. Here’s our group (don’t Amy’s and Andrea’s hubbies look thrilled?):
I can honestly say that despite seeing a couple of the Yanni Voices dudes at BlissDom, I had no idea what to expect from this show. And truly, I was wowed by the musical talent, of the vocalists as well as the musicians. My favorite part was a duel between a violin and a viola. That’s right, I said a duel, not a duet. It was pretty cool!
There was also a part where Chloe and Leslie, the females of Yanni Voices, were doing some pretty crazy stuff on a piano. Since it didn’t seem to actually involve any musical talent, Emily and I were thinking about trying out for those parts next time Yanni Voices holds auditions.
*ahem* Moving on.
After the show, we got to meet & greet with the “Voices”! But to get to them, we had to take an elevator down one floor. With all those people in the elevator, I was having flashbacks to THE Elevator, especially when two of the #Elevator13 were with me this time as well! Erin decided it would be fun to take a picture of me on the verge of my panic attack:
I was sooo happy to get out of that elevator!!
But anyhoo, the Yanni cast were so friendly. I wanted to get my picture taken with Ender, because we have the same haircut, but darnit, I never got to. So here he is with his #1 fan, Casey.
And here’s Emily and I with the girls of Yanni Voices, Chloe and Leslie. I advised them before we took this photo that they might want to suck their guts in a little bit so they didn’t look fat next to the hawtness that is me & Em:
And here’s Emily, Amy, me, Andrea and Erin with Nathan – such a nice and talented guy!
All in all we had a GREAT night! Such fun people to hang with and such a great show to watch!
Thanks to Erin for all the great pictures, I can’t seem to find the cord to my camera, but if and when I do, I’ll post some of my own!
SO fun!! What a great group to go with, too!!
Those guys are sooo sweet and amazingly talented to boot! Lucky y’all!
Looks like a fun night! I think Casey and Ender have the same hair! 🙂
MWAH! Perhaps that elevator ride reduced the anxiety a smidge?!?!? Loved being with you girls last night! I think the Hubs finally “gets it”!
Love you guys – had a ton o’fun!
So much fun! I told my husband in advance that he would be christened by all that is the blog last night…but he actually loved our energy. But, WHO COULDN’T???
I bet Yanni would totally hire you and Em to do a piano duet like Chloe and Leslie did. But, like you said #cloroxwipesandpiano 🙂
Looks like ya’ll had a SWELL time. I get to go check out the Voices here in Houston on June 13, pretty excited about that.
Wow! Looks like you all had a GREAT time! How fun!!! (And great pics!)
Ender is my homeboy.
Like your peice on Yanni. I am such a fan. Nice pics!
