Evanescence has been one of my all time favorite for a number of years. I wanted to see them in concert more than any other band. I finally got the opportunity in 2012, BUT unfortunately the night took an epic and cruel turn. Then it got worst, they haven't been on tour since! 

Almost exactly 4 years (to the day), we jumped on a train in Winona for a weekend getaway in Chicago. Us girls were overly anxious to see our fave Evanescence!! The day before the concert, we hit up a Cubs game. It was SO hot, I bought a tank top. My first game at Wrigley was one for the books. The concert on the other hand, not so much!

Long lines, cold weather, and a canceled concert. We waited ALL day in the rain to get into Toyota Field. Evanescence was the headliner! Several bands took the stage and played in the rain, but then it got real nasty. The wind picked up, and we were already standing in several inches of water. They called the show just minutes before Amy Lee took the stage. We were heartbroken. Now, after what seems like an eternity, they are going back on tour!!!

It was announced earlier this month that Amy Lee was also releasing a children's album! It'll be out September 30th. Here's a sample.

Unfortunately we will all have to travel if we want to see them. Here are the dates and location.
