AJR

Sam's taken the big kids to see AJR twice - in 2022 & 2024. (They are big fans.) 

We all 5 went to see them this summer! It was Leah's first real concert & my first time seeing AJR - except it really was JR - just Jack & Ryan since Adam's doing a book tour. 

We stayed at a hotel that had free breakfast & a shuttle to the Hollywood Casino Amphitheater (but it was cooler & easier to walk back afterwards). I think that everyone else we saw at the hotel was also going to the concert, and Jim kept counting the AJR shirts he saw.

Unfortunately, the hotel gave us the wrong type of room & there weren't enough beds for all of us (but Sam contends sleeping on the floor wasn't that bad just for one night). 

It was hot!


Leah got bangs! Hollywood Casino Amphitheater was extremely vigilant about checking our tickets every time we came back from the bathroom and getting snacks, which was surprising since we weren't exactly close to the stage! 


There were 4 opening bands! (Madilyn Mei, Valley, Lawrence, and Quinn XCII - Jim & I both liked Lawrence the best. Amelie liked Madilyn Mei. 

It was dark when AJR came on & a little cooler. They put on quite the spectacle with graphics & videos (as usual, I think!) 

 Amelie said the best song from the show was "Yes, I'm a Mess."
