Dance Around Til the Sun Goes Down.



In Shreveport, a new concert venue called The Stage recently opened. I had been wanting to go, but there wasn't anyone playing there that I knew until Jamie Lynn Spears was added to the line-up. Admittedly, I didn't even know Jamie Lynn sang, outside of her theme song for Zoey 101, which I loved, both the show and the song. I was super pumped when my friend, Claire, said she would go with me. I mean, it was a Friday night and we had nothing planned, so why not, right? 

Looking a little ratchet in the moonlight. Notice the Louisiana necklaces. Not even planned.

We both did a little research and listened to some of her music on YouTube. I listened to her EP on Spotify and played the Zoey 101 theme song a few times, crossing my fingers that she would sing it (she didn't, by the way). Neither of us knew the words to her songs, but we had a blast.
Jamie Lynn was a bit under the weather, but she still looked adorable in her shorts and leather jacket. We were surprised she didn't take the jacket off though. It was so humid outside. 

The only decent-ish picture I got.

Sidenote: I loved the setup of The Stage, mostly because I got to sit down and still get a good view of the stage. There was a dance floor and open space in front of the stage and some picnic tables toward the back and hi-boys with chairs lining the side of the area. And, of course, there was a bar. It's a smaller venue, which I enjoy because the concerts are much  more intimate. 
The lighting was horrible, and I got no good pictures, other than of my drink, and that's because the sun was still shining when I took the picture.

She played songs from her new EP, and she also played a few covers, including "Ain't It Fun" by Paramore, which was amazing. Her last song was "Ms. Mississippi." It's not on her EP, which is so disappointing, but it was so good. She did it as a mash-up with "Oops...I Did It Again," and the crowd, myself included, went wiiiiild. I was sad when Jamie didn't come out for an encore, but I did get the set list. Ha! Apparently I got some death stares from the little kids around me, but oh well. What am I going to do with that piece of paper? Umm...dunno. Right now, it's sitting on my dining room table. Maybe it'll make it's way to the fridge. 


I was even more sad that she didn't come out for a meet and greet. I thought she would since the crowd wasn't too overwhelming, but nope. I did meet the opening act though. Her name was Lainey Wilson, and apparently she's taking online classes at ULM, which is the college thirty minutes from where I went to school at Louisiana Tech. 

Lainey Wilson


There was a table right in front of us that started with just three guys and somehow grew to a million people. After Lainey got off the stage and Jamie was gearing up to get on, I politely asked the two guys in front of me if they could step to the side because we couldn't see. He was absolutely rude and was like, "Well, I don't know where you want me to go!" and meanwhile, his giant group of friends were already starting to congregate in a different spot. I was so pissed. How rude! But don't worry. I didn't let that ruin my Jamie experience. 
I definitely see big things for Jamie Lynn. She's super cute and really talented, and I love her country sound.
Did you watch Zoey 101? Did you know Jamie Lynn Spears sings?

  2. I watched every single episode of Zoey 101! I did know that she sang, but I didn't pay attention until one of my friends played one of her songs in the car one day. Girl's pretty good!

  4. I didn't know she sang! Zoey 101 was one my favorite shows in middle school. Who knew Jamie Lynn was still out and about.

  10. Right?! Apparently she's back in Louisiana and being a proud mama. Side note: Have you heard Hilary Duff's new song, "All About You?" I'm obsessed. And as a fellow H-Duff lover, I figured you would appreciate it too.

  11. Me too! It's the best. And if you want to dance, the option is still there too.

  12. She is! I was pleasantly surprised. I love her new country sound, but I also loved the theme song to Zoey 101. After seeing her in concert, I just wanted to sit down and watch all the episodes.

  13. It was a lot of fun! I love going to concerts, and the smaller ones end up being more fun because it's a more laid back and intimate atmosphere. And thanks so much!

  14. I had no idea she sang. We just went to the Britney Spears concert this past weekend and it was super underwhelming.

  15. That's so unfortunate. I thought a Britney Spears concert would be exciting. Jamie Lynn didn't put on a show. It was a concert where they stand up there and sing with the band, but it was awesome!

  16. Sounds like a fun show, I had no idea she was performing!

  17. It was a blast! Definitely an interesting mix of people in the crowd. I didn't know she had been performing either until I saw that the concert was coming to town.
