I was supposed to see Aerosmith in 2009, until Steven Tyler broke his shoulder during a prior concert when he fell off the stage. Whitesnake was down here a few years ago but I didn't fell well enough to go, so I gave my ticket to my mom and brother. Was supposed to see Cher a second time in 2015 until her kidney infection canceled the tour. Janet Jackson postponed her recent tour, so i will have to wait until next year possibly.

Pam Tillis

I love Pam so much. She still sings just as wonderfully as she always has and she has such a great stage presence. So funny and engaging. And the fact that she still insists on doing a meet and greet with her fans after almost every show makes her a true class act.

I agree! I got to meet her after the show. It was a small show...of course, she isn't going to bring in the people she used to but it was still an awesome intimate show. I got a few pictures of her while she was autographing photos.

I told her I was going to see Dolly Parton the next week and she told me a little about her while she was working on the "Romeo" song.

She's a super sweet, true, down-to-earth lady.
