Philadelphia, PA #2 - 10/29 Wells Fargo Center
Hi!
Just checking in to see who else is going to Philly's second show tonight? I went to the first one, but never wrote in about that (yet). Wonder if I will see any familiar faces? Can't wait!!!!! Will be my last local show......until perhaps the 2nd leg! |

Me
I will be there, & I am know that I'm not a familiar face I will be in the first level, on Christine's side but almost @ the top of that first level. I don't think it'll be that bad though, but I may not be able to see John or Mick except maybe on the big screen. I've been looking forward to this since April. Can't believe it's FINALLy here.
Have fun everyone! Lee

I'll be there, almost same seats as last time, Christine's side, first level. I'm bringing a friend this time so I'm really excited for him to see them. I don't think he's seen them since the tusk tour! This is my fourth show (so far) but I still get butterflies!!! Will be sure to report back with my findings.
Everyone else going have a great time!

Fantastic show! Band seems to be relaxed and settling into the touring groove. Stevie was 100% improved over the last Philly show. SOTM is getting better and better...she really nailed the ending...was totally into it! The Gypsy story is getting longer and longer...but tonight it was spot on and very touching, about realizing your dreams. Lindsey's speech before IKINW is a little different too.
The crowd was far more subdued than the last Philly show, yet seemed very appreciative of the music and the band...in a refined sort of way. Not many bathroom breaks, thankfully. Will post more later.

Just got home from the show. Got great pictures and videos from the 4th row center, will post tomorrow. The crowd really sucked. I was on the floor in front row for the first Philly show and the first MSG show, and had way more fun at those ones. Tonight venue security was over the top insane. They policed the aisles keeping them completely clear and I watched them physically grab and move people just for walking up into the aisle to take a picture. Nobody but row 1 was allowed to stand at the stage. Even if you were second or third row, the guard sitting in the aisle would force you back into your seats if you tried to stand or go near the stage. It was very quiet and boring up there. Nothing but one row of very old, seemingly bored people who barely clapped and walked away every few minutes for drinks. There's something to be said for the fans who rush to the stage and the "Lindsey girls" they bring up, even though most of you hate them. When huge fans and young excited people are up there, it's like a totally different show. All the yelling and dancing and interaction make it so much more exciting and special. The bored vibe of tonight really wrecked the show for me. Most of the front floor sections sat down the entire show. I felt like I was at a karaoke bar and nobody even cared about what was going on.
But besides the totally lame crowd and totally nasty security, it was a really good performance and I had a blast. However I find it ironic that security didn't even do bag checks. It's sad that it would've been easier to sneak in drug or weapons than it was just to get a picture in an aisle. I feel bad for the people like me who spent ridiculous amounts of money for seats in the first few rows just to be yelled at and forced to sit down the whole show. |

Awesome Show!
No security where I was, just people that didn't stand up. And I couldn't stand because I'd block their view, but I had a good time. I took video & pics & but I was up on the first level. It was kind of quiet up there.
I still couldn't get over the $25 to park! Last time I was there for a ball game, it was $15 I think & it wasn't that long ago. And yeah, with all the stuff going on in the U. S., I was surprised that no one's bag was searched. The "Sisters of the Moon" T-shirt look cool, (I like the song.), but didn't get it; it looked way small, even the large, so I just got my keychain. I thought they all sounded really good. You know, you just can't get the whole experience of the show just from YouTube. I mean, when they first come out, & the crickets are going... and then the crowd stands, (not our section), and the clapping. And then you hear that base, John, .... more louder clapping. It is just awesome. Nothing like a live show. I only had like 5 hours sleep & I'm going into work later. Well, you;ll see the videos. Oh & @ the end, Stevie makes a speech & I'm recording & my camera batteries start dying but I got her speech, but didn't get Mick's. But he did say that the Mac is definitely back. He is right! Oh one other thing, I'm recording GYOW & people get up & leave! Who gets up & leaves during GYOW & especially when I'm recording it, Unbelieveable! Lee

Mac fans are sort of passive so the excitement for this tour is surprising everyone, especially the band. Glad you had a great time! |

Saw this video of gold dust posted on fb today. It's pretty damn good! I never get tired of the crackhead dance but one of these times she is going to like trip or something.

John was sporting black converse sneakers. Are these new? Don't remember him wearing them before. They looked very cool.

I was in the third row for the Unleashed Tour & I really miss it & not just for the closeness, but for the crowd. They are more into it, thought it sounds like security was not as nice as the last time that I was there.
Yes, I noticed John's sneaks & I even commented to my husband about the Converse sneaks because we both had Converse sneaks growing up, even me being a girl. They were orange though, not black. I really noticed John's bass sound more this time, don't know why, maybe because of his illness. Noticed Lindsey being really close to Chris, just hugging her more than Stevie. Maybe because he really appreciates her being back. Lee

I like the venues with a high stage. That way, even if people are standing in front of you, they aren't high enough to block your view of the band. That works out really nicely. Michele |
