Jason Mraz--The Interview and The Concert

So much has happened since Summer. We found out Travis got the job in Utah. We put our house on the market. Travis, Bruce and Veronica stayed in Bill's basement and started work and school, while Savannah and Joe started school in Idaho with me. We finally couldn't stand it anymore and came to Utah as well, thanks to Leslie, who kindly let us stay with her.

During the craziness of looking for houses, making offers, trying to sort of home-school the two youngest kids, new jobs and schools, etc. we won tickets to see Jason Mraz in concert. We had to answer ridiculous questions on the radio, but with Leslie's help on google and Veronica's help tracking down some lyrics to a song, we won tickets and the opportunity to interview him before the show. Bruce and Veronica did the interview and then they along with Travis and me enjoyed a great show. He's an amazing musician and it was really fun.


The interview was really casual and he was very nice to them. I got to watch.






This is us following him back to the room for the interview. He was riding his bike all over the corridors of the e-center. It was a nice diversion from the hectic school, work, house-hunt schedule we'd been keeping.

I am unfamiliar with his body of work. I have become unhip and disconnected from all that is cool. I bet it was good. I love live music even if it is Eddie Money opening for Pat Benatar at the E-Center.
