Ok y'all I am seriously shaking from excitement as I'm typing this!! I've just won tickets to the ACM Honor Awards in Nashville on Monday!! But wait, let me back up. Last weekend was my hometown of Bardstown's Bourbon Festival, where people from all around the world come and visit to taste our alcohol and hear some awesome music! It's a really big deal to all of us here, and this year, Dierks Bentley, was set to play. So, of course, I went ;) I got front row standing and touched his hand and caught his guitar pick! I know I sound like a little school girl with a crush, but he was so amazing! He's so funny and a great person and really put on a great show for us! When he tweeted me (yes, he tweeted me and I almost fainted), it caught my attention that he is going to be hosting the ACM Honor Awards in Nashville on Sept. 24th. The ACM's have an official Twitter page, which I started following, and began giving out tickets to random follower who retweeted their tweets. After not winning for the first few days, I became discouraged, but lo and behold, this afternoon they said "Congratulations to Payton Guthrie"!!!! I am so stoked, you guys, I can't even explain. I can't wait to see Dierks in action again and a whole slew of country music performers/presenters/honorees! It's going to be so kick-ass! Especially because Matthew and I have talked recently about moving to Nashville after I graduate! I'm overwhelmed with missing school Monday, where I'm gonna find the perfect dress, and I realize I need to go tanning! I know I sound so giddy, but it'll be an amazing experience and you can catch it on CBS Monday night! Be watching :) It is going to be held at the beautiful Ryman Auditorium in Nashville and I get to spend all day in my favorite city! I'll be sure to post how it was whenever I get back! Attached is a good pic of Dierks from the concert Friday! Xo!
