time to do a last minute "fluff and puff" ladies..i see the lights of the ferris wheel down below so that means that we are here..it will take "mr.g" a few minutes to find a spot big enough to land the magic bus..so that will give should give us enough time to make sure we're looking "beautiful".. can't go to see our man with our hair sticking up because "someone" decided to have all the windows open for our ride here..i'm mean really "mr.g"you could have turned the air on..oh yeah..forgot that for us to have air someone has to ride the bike at the back of the bus to run the power to your homemade air conditioning..it's been awhile since we have been on the bus..i guess you are forgiven..it would have been a tad bit warm in here..alright..you find us a place to land and we will do what we have to to get all prettied up.. whoa... uh.."mr.g" i think you forgot to take your foot off the gas while you were going down!!..everyone ok?..that’s good we don't need to have to go and find the first aid building right off the bat!! 

now that everyone is all "fluffed and puffed" and looking mighty fine in your best tracin duds what do you say we go find us trace?..heehee..you can tell we haven't done this in a while..you all look like you either swallowed jumping beans or need to use the ladies room..really bad!!..i'm pretty excited myself..what a better way to spend a beautiful summer night than under the stars and all of the pretty lights from the midway with our favorite man..it's not too hot so we don't have to worry about using our "trace-fans" or our spray bottles to  to keep cool..mother nature must be having a good night cause she sure has given us perfect "tracin" weather ..so..what do you say you all hop on my "super-duper" electric w/chair..that lil red decorated for us..she did a really good job didn't she..we have hot pink balloons and flashing lights..and a sign that has "adkinettes on board" spelled with hot pink lights on it..and the sparkly streamers remind me of the ones i use to have on the handles of my bike way back when..look how cool they look when the lights hit them..she did a awesome job decking our ride out!..so is everyone on..and holding on tight?..well then i say..let's get this party started!! 

ooooooooooooweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...i can tell that "mr.g" has been messing around with my chair again..that man seems to think everything with a motor has to go in one speed..FAST!!..ok..think i have it turned down to a speed that's a little slower so now we don't have to worry about someone falling off while we're going over the bumpy terrain we have to go over to get to our seats.. i see my friend lynn jumping up and down up towards the stage..that must be where our seats are..she said she was going to come early and make sure no one took our spot she's going to join our little party tonite ..she was so excited that she was going to get to come on an "adkinette adventure"..well..it looks like she didn't like our seats and has sweet talked one of the staff  members to letting us sit right up behind the front row section..what a girl..now i won't have to worry about trying to kill myself just so i can see trace up on stage when everyone stands up..good job lynn..this is the perfect place to watch the show..you done good girl!! 

looks like we got here just in time..keith anderson is just finished his act and trace's guys are  setting up his stuff..can you ladies all see good from where your sitting? that's good..i asked "mr.g" to add a little platform to the back of my chair so you all could sit up there and be all nice and  comfy..high enough to see over my head but not too high that we have to worry about anyone falling off..can't have any adkinettes getting squished by feet that are dancing to the music..that wouldn't be very good at all..and i made sure he made it big enough so you could get up and do a little dancing when the "mood" strikes you

how do you like your chairs? "mr.g" thought you would enjoy having your very own hot pink chairs with your names on the back done in rhinestones..(i think the rhinestones were lil red's idea..if she would have had him do it he would have used stones from out in the drive way!) .. ahhh..i see that you have found your trace towels that i had "mr.g" tuck inside the side pocket of your chair..it's been getting a little chilly here at night and i didn't want you all to get cold..i found these towels in my box of trace things and thought they would be perfect..when you start getting cold you can just wrap trace around you and snuggle up with him..and of course..there is a place to put a cup of your favorite beverage.. i had lynn sneak in a cooler that is full of strawberry margaritas.. just in case someone gets a little thirsty from all the hooping and hollaring and singing along with trace..ohhh..looks like the guys are finished getting things set up..and the lights are starting to go down..so you know what that means...the show is about to begin! 

can everyone see?..these really are perfect seats..row 4 1/2..not bad!!..well it looks like we are going to see just how good these seats are cause it looks like the show is about to start..the lights are going down..and the roar is starting..and getting louder and louder now the lights are shining on the back of the stage..right on the big banner up there that says..TRACE..with a silhouette of him right in the middle of the A..wow..that is really cool and very impressive!! ohhhh..i'm getting "tracebumps"..i know i saw him last october but it seems like forever i can't wait for him to come one stage!!!..look there he is..coming out of a puff of smoke awesome enterance!!..that has everyone is on there feet.. screaming and hollaring!!..alright now..if those two girls right in front of us stand like that we should be able to see right in between their heads...ahhhhhh.. ummm..now that really isn't too bad..nice looking belt buckle..a great big A!!.. heehee..no i don't think i'm going to complain!! aww.. thanks lynn.that was nice of you to ask those girls to sit down every once in awhile so we can see the  show too that was nice of them to do that..so ladies.. looks like we will be looking at more than that big A.. ohhhh..the rest of him isn't looking too bad..he is looking alot better than the last time i saw him..no more skin and bones like when i saw him last..lots of muscles..i would say our man has been doing a little working out.. 

yep he's looking very buff..with his arms stretched out wide singing "songs about me".. ohhh..here he comes..right down by us..careful now ladies..you are going to fall flat on your faces if you try to reach out for him..he looks like he's really close..but 4 1/2 rows is a little far away for you guys!!..we don't have to leave and make a trip to the first aid tent now.."mr.g" made sure that he gave you ladies lots of room to dance and prance there on your platform.. knowing that you can't sit still while our man is doing his thing..and i say it's a good thing cause from the sounds of what the band is starting to play now your going to need it..the room and those little poles that are holding the platform up..(boy does "mr.g" know his girls or not!!)..heehee..i can see that you all recognize what song is coming too..didn't take you long to get up and get your little "badonkadonk's" a swinging!..you ladies have't lost your touch..your "thinkin thing" pole dances are just as good as always..and from what i can see..your "mo-jo-ing" is right in tune with trace's belt buckle!! well..i can't get up and "pole dance" with you..so while you ladies are dancing i'm sitting here enjoying watching that big A swaying from side to side..ahh yes..ya gotta love that "mo-jo-ing"!!! 

oh good..he's going to do "dangerous man"..i have been listening to his new cd ever since "mr.g" brought it home last night and i love it..every song..but i think that this is one of my favorites..oh what I would give to be “nibbling” on his neck!!.ahh..yeah..that neck was made for nibbling!!...not a bad dancing song huh girls?..sure am glad that "mr.g" made sure you had a place to do your thing i can see your making good use of it..oh trace..my friend .. heehee..one of these days your going to get yourself in trouble with the little stories you tell before a song..i'm sure that rhonda is going to love it when she hears you told everyone that you married a girl from up north and that she was brought up by a nice..well to do family..and was sent south for her education and then met and fell in love with a southern boy..oh yeah..she's going to love you telling that you think that they only reason they finally decided to like you was when they found out that rhonda was expecting!! heehee..yeah..you know if she heard that story you'd be in trouble cause your blushing big time!!... but it was a great lead into the new song "ladies love country boys"..i love this song..and you can tell trace does too..he's having a lot of fun singing this one..that man has more moves..just when you think you have seen them all he comes up with more heehee..i say..keep em comin trace!!

this song gives me "tracebumps"..it's too bad that he pulled it off of radio..i understand why he did..he's was being considerate to the people who were offended by it..but it is such a beautiful tribute..with all of the stage lights red white and blue..it's the perfect setting for "arlington"..you can tell how much it means to him as he takes his hat off and raises it to the sky..ohhh..i can tell that now that he has finished singing it he has something to say..you can tell by the way he's walking back up to the mic..hands in his pocket.."trace-atude" written all over his face..that is great that he got to spend sometime with some of the local national guard personel today..ah ha..and he got to take a spin around town in a hummer..betcha he loved that ride..i love it when he talks politics!! good ol' southern boy style..this song fits trace to a "T"..and you can tell by the way he's moving he's got some "fightin words" to say to those who don't respect what our service men and women are doing for us..look at those big ol' size 13's stompin on the stage..up and down..from one end of the stage to the other..just look at that crooked smirk..he really enjoyed that one!! 

i love it when he sings "there's a stranger in my house"..he puts so much feeling into it..hummm this is a new one..never heard trace sing "it feels like the first time"..guess he's shaking things up by adding a little foriener to his show..trace could sing anything and make it sound good!!.. ahh now here we go another new one...he hasn't even opened up his mouth yet and everyone is up and getting ready to "swing"..and by the way that my wheelchair is moving back and forth you all are going to join them..i'm just glad that "mr.g" made your platform sturdy..don’t have to worry about it falling off..only have to worry about keeping you girls on it..so go ahead and "swing" your little hearts off!!..i'm just going to sit here and watch the big A "swing"..heehee..i'm lovin sitting in row 4 1/2..i don't  think i have ever had such a great view.. even looking between those two girls head!!..swing batter batter swing batter batter swing..yeah!! 

i feel another story coming..this time he's looking like a little boy who's mama has caught him doing something wrong..heehee ..and that is exactly what has happened haha..his poor mama not approving of some of the songs he sings..but after this one came out she was afraid she was going to have to change churches from the shame it caused her..as he hangs his head..back up comes his head..that ol' smirk back on his face..and him saying how he just can't help paying tribute to things he really respects you can hear the band  "turnin it up" loud..and trace's crooked smirk has turned into a big ol' crooked smile as he's standing up there watching everyone jumpin up and down i think i better hang on real tight cause you girls definitely know it's time to do some more " shakin of your badonkadonks"..heehee..here we go!!!..the crowd is singing it so loud trace doesn't even have to sing a word of this song..good thing i'm wearing my neck brace otherwise i would get whiplash between my head swaying back and forth keeping time that big "A"..and you guys shaking my wheelchair as you shake your little"badonkadonks"!!..careful lynn..your going to put your back out..your moving just as much if not more than the girls..if we're not  careful we're going to have to be making a call to 911!!!..ooowweeeee..now that was fun..there he goes..heading off the stage..ahhh yeah..we hate to see him go..but we love to watch him leave..that’s why we’re here..it ain’t for the cotton candy and it ain’t for the fair food…it’s for the

 "TRACE BADONKADONK!!!”

awwwww..he's leaning down and giving his cowboy hat to this little girl in the front row..she can't be more than 5 years old.. that's the daddy in him!!! feet are a stomping.. hands are a clapping and the adkinettes are a whoopin and a hollarin.. trace..trace!!..you know he's got one more song in him..he can't leave us yet ahhh here he comes..no hat..hair just a swinging..oh hang on ladies..i know what his hair being down does to you be still your little hearts!!.. the lights are flashing purple (no paisley's) yellow (no daisy's)..it's chrome!!..oh no..i know what's coming now..go for it ladies..ahhhh..perfect timing as always..you girls and your line dances..i can see that you haven’t lost your touch.. nice kicks!! you all look so spiffy in your hot pink tracin outfits there is no no way that trace can miss seeing you between the white flashing lights that "mr.g" strung all around the edge of your platform and all of that glitter and sparkling rhinestones every inch of your outfits are with covered in them..ohh..you better hurry and get your ending in there before he leaves...yeah!!.. 

"THANKS TRACE..IT'S BEEN A GREAT RIDE LOVE YOUR ADKINETTES!!"
