Last night I took a trip with some of the greatest ladies that I have ever met! We went down for the taping of the Rascal Flatts ABC Special that will air on March 12.

I was joined by Katelyn and her mom Karen, Wendy and her mom Deb, Missy and her friend Erin as well as Suzy from Bud Light and her friend Angie, and my niece Hailey.

We took off from our studios in the Pearl Limo and Karen got us all going immediately. We laughed from the time we left our parking lot until the time we got back. Just meeting these ladies and spending time with them was the best part of the night for me. Yes, Rascal Flatts was awesome, but these ladies made it 1000% better!

Tonight Rascal Flatts takes the stage and part of that concert will be used in the ABC Special. Last night, they were shooting the close up shots for the production that they can't shoot tonight. I counted 12 cameras all shooting from different angles. If they tried to do that tonight, someone would not be able to see the stage!

I took some video of what happened last night with my phone and the audio and video isn't the best, but you get to see a little bit of what will happen tonight on stage!

Gary got the crowd laughing by talking about how cold it is here. They then started performing a string of their hits including These Days.

We had a great place to view the concert and the best part of the night was seeing Gary, Jay and Joe Don being "THEMSELVES". Not going from song to song, not being perfect and being quite jovial with the crowd! Jay even expanded on how Minnesota women are different than anywhere else!

They continued the show with Bob That Head and their latest hit I Won't Let Go. I don't know if this will happen tonight, but we got a special surprise last night as pop recording artist Natasha Beddingfield joined the guys on stage. They sing together on Easy on their new album Nothing Like This.

If you don't have plans tonight, think about heading down to St. Paul and catching the Rascal Flatts Nothing Like This Tour. You won't regret it.

Thank you to our awesome guests last night and here's to the next trip with 98 Country!
