Thumbs up 5 shows in 6 days (TX, OK, KS, week of Nov 5)

after a week off, Lindsey's tour resumed in Austin on Mon, with 5 shows this week:

Mon, NOV 05 Paramount Theatre Austin, TX
Tue, NOV 06 Majestic Theatre Dallas, TX
Thu, NOV 08 Brady Theatre Tulsa, OK
Fri, NOV 09 Riverwind Casino Norman, OK
Sat, NOV 10 Stiefel Theatre Salina, KS

while facebook, twitter and other social media are having posts reporting every step, every m&g fantastic experience, and bunch of little video snippets, there seems to be not that many LB fans left on here, so figured i'd put the thread for these shows all at once... might go sift through all the posts and put some pics here, later.

today is the last show of this week, in Salina, KS.

Thanks for posting, Elle! I think the show on Nov 26 in Canton is the first one following a break for the Thanksgiving holiday, so I bet Lindsey and crew will be even more energized than usual. A good friend of mine told me the Canton Palace Theater is really beautiful, too.

yeah doesn't hurt at any time and we'll just bump it when it comes closer. but people going to NYC may not necessarily see it in here.


btw, something curious happened at the show in Salina, KS yesterday. instead of 7 songs, Ondara did only 4, and then at the end Lindsey skipped Rodeo.

apparently audience was also yelling at everyone upfront who wanted to stand and dance.... i mean people on social media are still all saying that it was fantastic, but compared to others seems like it was a weird show.

Rodeo BETTER be back in Birmingham for Joe!

I was at the Salina, KS show. It's true people were asking those standing to sit down. This was an issue the last time Lindsey played here too -- it was so distracting last time Lindsey actually stopped the show mid-song and told the people complaining that their complaining was much more distracting than the people standing there. But part of the problem at this theater is they put the handicapped section in the front row, so those people literally can't stand most of the time, so the people who want to stand up are made out to be the bad guys. I live about 8 blocks from this theater and we are lucky they bring great acts like Lindsey to our town, but unfortunately many people here still have a 'small town' mentality and don't understand people standing to enjoy a show.

I too was surprised about the opening act cutting short. We were told by theater staff the opener would play until 8:40, and Lindsey would take the stage at 9pm. However, Lindsey started at 8:50. I was bummed and surprised when at the end of the show Lindsey and the guys came back for the encore, played one song, and after band introductions, Lindsey said 'we're gonna play one more song and get out of here' and Treason was the last song. I had been looking forward to Down on Rodeo.

I've seen Lindsey 6 times as a solo act over the years, and I thought this show was superb and he seemed very humbled. I bet he thanked the audience for their support and for coming to the show 7 or 8 times. He seemed very sincere and the message heartfelt. It was a great show and I'm glad we went.

Thanks, PaulaMacFan! I appreciated your post. That's interesting what you said about the handicapped section being in the front row- I can appreciate both sides. On one hand, some people in that section may not be able to stand up, but people who can stand up may be blocking the view of those who can't stand up.

Glad you enjoyed the show!

Fleetwood Mac seems really popular in Ohio. I base that on radio play and concert attendance and reaction. For those reasons, I suspect the audience for Lindsey in Canton will be fantastic! Lotta people standing up, cheering, etc.

Me.

I have front row, so no matter where you are seated, you'll definitely see me standing and dancing. You can join me and we can drive everybody around us crazy.
