My random thoughts/experiences….
Les covered the actual songs and show pretty well in his review, so I’ll skip that… (Sorry I didn’t get to meet ya, Les!).
My friend Angela, who lives in Vegas, scored front row the day before the show. Jessica and I were lucky enough to get right up front w/ her. The MGM security folks were angels!! We said hello to Janine, who had front row center, and had already positioned herself directly between Stevie and Lindsey. I had my camera and was surprised to see that security didn’t give a sh*t about picture-taking, even w/ a flash! I was having so much fun singing and dancing during the show that I didn’t even begin to take pictures until about ½ way through. I stood right in front of Stevie for Beautiful Child and took a couple pics. I think I got some good Tusk hug, GDW pose, and Stand Back twirl pics also. Of course, I’ll post them after I get them developed and scanned.
We all played Lindsey’s guitar during GYOW. We all had the LB eye contact, flirty thing goin’ on, but especially Jessica! I told Angela to tell LB while he was sitting on the side of the stage during World Turning, that she wanted his towel. She did, and he threw it right AT her, like a fastball! I tried to get a pic, but it happened so fast. So, I told her to turn around with her back to the stage and hold up the towel and I took a pic of that – we were laughing about it later, she was like the bridesmaid who caught the bouquet! LOL
When Lindsey took Janine’s BN album backstage, we were all saying, “Whaaaa? Where’s he going w/ that?” I hadn’t realized that Janine asked him to get Stevie’s signature on it. What a doll he was for doing that for her! There were some women up front from Atlanta (I asked them if they knew Tracy, they said they didn’t). They had some photos they got Lindsey to sign.
Kristen was there – I walked right past her and did a double-take. I smiled at her as I walked by, but she gave me that kinda catty, snarly, head-to-toe look. I’m not trying to be nasty here, just callin’ it as I saw it….
Stevie’s mom was wearing the snakeskin pants again…I’m not sure where they were sitting during the show, but we saw her and Stevie’s dad getting into a limo afterwards. We also saw the band getting into their limos – Stevie came out with her 2 doggies running around.
And finally, y’all are gonna love this…we saw Stevie playing blackjack until the wee hours…she was at the $100 minimum/$10,000 maximum table, with security around her and a little entourage, including Taku, watching the action. She looked like she was having a blast! We were joking around, wondering how much she was betting, and imagining her saying, “I’ve made millions on this tour! Hit me!” LOL
