OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

oops....sorry! I'm still a little WOUND UP from the show last night!

Last night's show was SO AWESOME! wow...the guys looked GREAT, sounded great (except for a few minor sound issues in the beginning but those seemed to be fixed pretty quickly), and I had great seats in which to see them!

I didn't buy any merch, it was so expensive but my friend Who I brought as a Christmas/birthday present bought me that Pop-up book!!! WOW! I did buy a $10 Bootie shirt outside, which actually is pretty nice!

Here is the setlist:

Sunrise
Hungry
Hold Back the Rain
Union of the Snake
Astronaut
Come Undone
I don't Want Your Love
Chains
What happens Tomorrow
Planet Earth
Tiger Tiger
The chauffeur (with Simon looking HOT in his chauffeur hat and wool coat!)
Ordinary World
Save a Prayer
Nice
Notorious
the Reflex
Careless Memories
Wild Boys

**encore**

White Lines
Girls on Film
Rio

I was kinda bummed I didn't hear Nightboat but the Chauffeur made up for it!

ooh I wish I was going to see them again.

    Yay! Sounds like you had a great time!

    Looks like the same set list from Dallas. Isn't the pop-up book cool?! :)

    Hey all,

    (Hi Dina..me again!)

    Hey..was it just me or did Simon forget the words of Rio? Something happened there and he was scolding himself. And he just looked and sounded lost for a moment. It was like he lost his place and couldn't remember which verse was next.

    It didn't matter..I loved it either way...but I thought it was actually cool. Glad I am not the only one who goes up on her lines occationally ;)

    Loved the show SO much...and Im with you...i wish i was going again!

      hmmmm you know I didn't notice that but I think during Rio I sort of mentally tuned out....I am SO sick of that song and wasn't as into it as I was The Chauffeur or Careless Memories, for example. I've seen other singers flub a few lines occasionally and I think "damn, they have SO many songs how does that not occur more often???"!!

      I really want to go again not only to stare incessantly at the boys for 2 hours and dance my ass off, but to get a second chance to pay more attention to the setlist and the stage and everything. Often times when I see a band two nights in a row I notice some things the second time that I didn't the first. ahhhh well!!! :(
