Concert Line Up!

Last week we went to jam out at the Sister Hazel show! (at the House of Blues venue on Sunset blvd in West Hollywood) It was so much fun, especially when they sang some of my favorites from the 90's such as "All for You" and "Happy."

I'm so excited for the next few shows we have lined up for future date nights...including O.A.R. and one band I'm really excited to see, Coldplay! That concert isn't until May but it's on my calendar! I wonder if Rhianna will be there to sing the new hit with them? I hope so!



Some of my most favorite shows that we have seen together over the past couple years are; Lady Gaga/Bono/Usher (all together in one night!) Jack Johnson, John Mayer, Ben Harper, David Crowder Band, DAVE MATTHEWS (always a favorite of mine) and my uncle's band, Cowboy Mouth. You should see all of the above live if you haven't yet! Amazing!

The Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles 

My favorite venues in Los Angeles are The Hollywood Bowl & The House of Blues of course!

So...if you need an idea for a date night with your hubby or boyfriend, or something fun to do with your friends...go see a concert at a fun venue in your town!

That is one of my favorite things to do with Bryan, it is a fun change of pace for a fun date night! I don't know if it's the fact that he works for Live Nation but ever since we have been together, going to see a show has been a monthly date night for us!

What are your favorite concert venues in your city?

Rock on!

Work & Play

Hey friends! It's been a while since I stopped by my blog so I thought I would say hello to catch up! I went to Switzerland in March..(see previous blog with a slideshow of the trip!) it was amaaaaazing as always! Since then here's what I've been up to the past couple of months!

Work: I've been blessed to have gotten to work doing casting for a few fun projects in the world of Television! I also feel very blessed that I enjoy what I do...I think that is most important!

I've been working with dLt Casting & Productions  on a new game show for the The Hub Network, called The Game of Life. Once that show ended, I began casting for Season 2 of  Family Game Night , also on the HUB. I went to see the TV studio set the last day of taping and it happened to be the day that Reuben Klamer board game designer & original creator of the Game Of Life, was there as a special guest on the show! He was so sweet and also gave me an autographed 50th anniversary board game. It was such a pleasure to meet him. It really made me feel a sense of accomplishment when he told me that he loved the kids that I was bringing in to be on the show, and to "keep up the good work." Thanks Rueben!

I also kept busy working with one of my favorite Casting Directors and mentors, Nick Chiodini, creator of People Farm, Inc.  casting a couple of Pilots for The Disney Channel!
I love what I do. I love to work hard, and I love to play hard!  

I just got back from a weekend get-away to Vegas with my B! We had a blast! It's always fun to come to Vegas since it's so close to LA. (It would be like going from Dallas to Houston for the weekend)We like to hang out in the House of Blues Foundation Room, which has the best view in Vegas!

Another one of our favorite things we love is the House of Blues Gospel Brunch, which has a Sunday southern style brunch along with amazing live gospel entertainment! Cheese grits, biscuits & gravy, shrimp, red beans and rice...it's good ole' Southern comfort food to die for!
if you haven't gone, you should check it out any Sunday at any House of Blues Venue!

Bryan also took me to a fabulous show at the Mirage to see The Beatles LOVE Cirque du Soleil show It was amazing! We also went to a sold out show at the House of Blues music hall to see Brandon Flowers. (lead singer of the Killers)

 Oh, and did I mention that I met Cee Lo Green? Very nice man. :)

The Hollywood Bowl

One of my favorite things to do in Los Angeles is go to concerts with my husband at the Hollywood Bowl. We have gone to see Dave Matthews, James Taylor & Carol King, John Mayer to name a few! The Hollywood Bowl is just walking distance from our apartment so it's always fun to walk over to catch a concert on a cool LA night for a date!

Going out to another show at the Bowl! 

Dave Matthews

I always love to see DMB, but I think I have to say my favorite show this year was to see Jack Johnson! Maybe because he is one of my favorite artists, but he was just so good live! I sang along to every single song! (sorry Bryan!)  Here is one of my favorite songs, please try not to listen to the tone deaf lady singing and cheering along while filming this song! ha! Just wanted to share one of my favorite past times to do with my husband out here in LA LA land! Rock on!

The Hollywood Bowl is a famous outdoor amphitheatre located in the Hollywood area of Los Angeles. The Hollywood Bowl is well known for its band shell, a distinctive set of concentric arches that graced the site from 1929 through 2003, before being replaced with a somewhat larger one in 2004. The shell is set against the backdrop of the Hollywood Hills and the famous Hollywood Sign to the Northeast.

Full Time Wife with 3 Part Time Jobs!

So you've probably noticed that I keep posting casting calls on my blog.
I'm so happy to finally find work. I have been looking for a job since I returned from my honeymoon!
I still would love to get into pharmaceutical sales one day, but for now, God opened some old school career doors for me and has been keeping me busy! Finally! I'm now working part time for 3 different shows! I forgot how much I enjoying working in TV casting...reminds me of when I first moved to Los Angeles and worked at MTV.

I'm casting for ABC's Supernanny, which is fun because I get to find families with kids and I have an excuse to wear my converse shoes, my niece's Silly Bandz and a t-shirt for "work" instead of my medical sales outfits that made me feel like I was 40. I'm also working for a former boss I had years ago at MTV, who now has created his own business called PEOPLE FARM INC. and am casting a new huge show about wedding planners. Last but not least, bringing it back to the old school, I'm going to be casting teenie boppers for an MTV pilot. I'm just happy that the Lord opened some doors for me finally! I don't have a full time job yet, so keep me in mind! :) but as long as someone in Hollywood needs me for casting, I'm in!

Newlywed life is so much fun. I love being married. Bryan and I have taken up a new hobby, hiking! We have been going about every weekend. If we don't hike, we go to concerts in Hollywood, since he always brings home tickets from his work, LIVE NATION. I'm so excited this weekend we are going to see JOHN MAYER and then my favorite, DAVE MATTHEWS at the Hollywood Bowl! Whooo hoo! Can't wait!

Happy Weekend from Hollywood Ya'll!
