This past weekend, I was in New Orleans at Jazzfest for Lindsey's bachelorette party.
And when Phoenix came out on stage, I was overcome with emotion, excitement.
I turned to Lindsey & said, They are here, all the way from Paris, France, to play for us.
And as they played, & we swayed back & forth, sang the words we knew, I was able to just experience it all, bottle it up, & bring it home with me.
And that is a very valuable experience.
Today, Jenni prompts us to give a piece of advice to someone, as part of Blog Every Day in May. My advice to you all is this: experience music. Really, truly experience it. Let it wash over you, let it take you somewhere else. It's worth it.

I love this. And I couldn't agree more. Music is one of the best, most powerful things in the world.
So jealous that you got to go to Jazzfest!! Glad you took in every second. :)
If I close my eyes I can still see us standing there in the mud surrounded by people, bobbing our heads to the beat and letting the music run over us. What a wonderful memory. Thank you for sharing this weekend with me. xoxo
I love this so much. I have the same experience hearing a song I love live, I just never could have put it into words like that.
