We Hate We Missed This!!

Hey Op Fans! We hope everyone had a great weekend and is having a wonderful Tuesday! Did any of you go to Hangout Music Festival this past weekend?? We are so jealous if you did because we heard it was amazing! One moment from the Festival we hated we missed to see was on Saturday afternoon. A party erupted on the beach when the Foo Fighters jumped on the main stage and played a four-song cover set: Alice Cooper’s “School’s Out,” Queen’s “Tie Your Mother Down,” Tom Petty’s “Breakdown” and Prince’s “Darlin’ Nikki.” Cee-Lo joined the band on vocals in the middle of “Darlin’ Nikki” and Dave Matthews also shared the stage for a song before The Foo’s and Dave bowed out and Cee Lo played for the crowd of 30k plus on the white sandy beaches of Gulf Shores.

How fun does that sound?! Did any of you see it live?? If you did we are very jealous and hope you enjoyed it! For those of you who didn't... maybe next year!

Here is the official music video of one of our favorite Foo Fighters songs, Rope! Hope you enjoy :)

an amazing artist AND person??!!

Hey Op fans!! Another tour we are SO excited about this summer is another one of our favorite female singers, Taylor Swift!! Taylor kicks off her Speak Now World Tour on May 27th in Omaha, Nebraska!! However, on May 21st in her hometown of Nashville, TN, Taylor announced that she is opening the last dress rehearsal for her Speak Now Tour as a fundraiser to benefit the victims of the recent deadly tornadoes in the Southeast! How amazing is that??! She is an amazing artist AND an amazing person! We have never loved her more!! 13,000 very lucky fans will get a first look at Taylor’s new show almost a week early in Nashville at her, “Speak Now… Help Now” performance!! We cannot wait to hear how it goes!!

Her Speak Now Tour has been widely anticipated and is already sold out in most of the cities she is performing in! We are hoping to get a ticket somehow though because we are dying to see her live!! Op <3’s Taylor!!
