Edwin McCain Gives a Concert at Yokosuka

And we got a free concert thanks to MWR (Morale, Welfare & Recreation) here at CFAY (Commander Fleet Activities Yokosuka). "I'll Be" was our wedding song, and to hear it live, standing a few feet from Edwin McCain was incredible! I didn't record that song because I wanted to enjoy it and kind of take it all in, you know?! I was resting my elbows on the stage right in front of guitarist Larry Chaney. I would guess a crowd of about 150 was there, and most of the conversation I could hear was from tweens and teens asking who this guy is! I've been a huge fan since my freshman year of college (1997-1998) and felt like a groupie standing right up at the stage!

I was kicking myself for only bringing my smaller camera with video. Don't get me wrong, I was thrilled to be able to take video, but my other camera takes much better photos, but since it's an SLR, no video. I'll add a few of the better pictures here and will also include a video of him singing "I Could Not Ask for More." I've got a few more videos, but they're too long/too large of a file size to post. So if you subscribe to my blog via email you'll need to click here to view it.

Mr. McCain and his band gave us a great show, and is very supportive of the military. This was the first time I've ever been to a concert like this - a USO or MWR sponsored event. It does wonders for morale of the active duty members and for families too!
