So we did it! On Saturday April 4th, 2009 we drove up to Hollywood and saw Leslie Hall and the LY's at the El Rey Theater. On the way up Layne was busily sewing on the remaining red sequence to her fabulous gem sweater. We were planning on eating with Layne's sister and friends but our time was running short so we grabbed some Fat Burger, which seemed fitting for the occasion. While we ate Laye worked through the pain and finished her sweater. What a dedicated fan..... 
After dinner we headed over to the El Rey. Leslie was the opening artist so we did not have to wait long to see her! What happened next was amazing. After all of that had work and working through the pain, Layne and I were pulled up on stage to dance with Leslie as her backup dancers, the Gem Squad to be precise! You read that right, backup dancers. Oooooh Yeah! I have been searching the internet of pictures to verify this for you but have not found any yet. You'll just have to trust us on this one. It was too fun. All that work on the gem sweaters payed off when we climbed on that stage and danced with Leslie and her girls. So, it was a fabulous time and worth every aching back, shining sequence and expensive valet parking penny! We had so much fun and will treasure our gem sweaters for many moons to come! Oooooohhhh yeah.......
