Pat Green @ MSG

Crystal and I enjoyed her delayed birthday gift last night by spending the evening in the city and attending the Pat Green concert at Madison Square Garden. I had been to the garden numerous times with my father in my younger years to see the NY Knicks and Rangers play, but this was Crystals first trip. As the opening act for Kenny Chesney Pat was stellar. We have seen him numerous times in Texas but this was a first , a country concert in the heart of the big apple!
