Breaking a 10-pound chocolate bar on your knee is painful...

...just ask Michael Buble.

Whaaa?

And how did I find out?

Drum roll please... I went to my first concert.

Michael Buble was in Hershey this past Tuesday night. My one friend invited me to go along. Since I like his style of music, I figured it'd be a good show. No surprise that it was sold out with 9000 people.

After the excellent opening act Naturally 7 (think Boyz II Men using their mouths to play all their instruments), Michael took the stage at the south end of the arena and sang two songs.

Then the fun started. He brought out a 10-pound Hershey bar, broke it over his knee, and passed it out to the first row. He stressed to us that he doesn't take each performance for granted, that he and his 13-piece band strive to put on a great show every night, and that he's been blessed by such great fan support.

He even went to the crowd to greet a cute 7-year-old all dressed up and took pictures with him and a few other fans. He got serious when he sang his version of "Always On My Mind" and his latest hit "Lost."

The fun picked up again when he did shtick with the band, and later sang "YMCA."

This was his only stop in PA for this tour. He said he'll be back to Hershey. If you enjoy "Everything" and his version of "Save The Last Dance For Me," as well as 50s style entertainers, like the Rat Pack, you'll really like his show.

Buckle Up,
