Isn't that San Jose airport a nightmare? Worst TSA agents ever. Guess it didn't help that three different people in front of me at the security checkpoint didn't have proper photo IDs. Why would anyone even consider flying these days without a proper photo ID? Inconceivable! :confused:

ajmccarrell 09-09-2008 06:09 PM

Meet up?
 
Do any of you want to meet up before the show? I was thinking we could all go to the McDonald's down from the Moore beforehand or something.

Have fun, take good notes! I have a feeling we'll see lots of set list changes and surprises. I doubt they rehearsed for a month just to do UTS Part II w/ the GOS tracks.

I didn't realize the album was only 40 minutes long. That being the case, he should do ALL of the songs off of the album. He'd still have plenty time left over to promote Rumours (as Chili likes to say :laugh:). Michele

Great show again! he nailed GYOW, SUD, and DLD and both solos on come and ISA were amazingly good! the set list was the same the crowd was louder though! :D show 2/10 it was better than the first show!

ajmccarrell 09-10-2008 02:23 AM

I will post a full review tomorrow and I have a ton of pictures! I also got to talk to Lindsey after the show and I have a couple pics of us together. :)

Yeah, there was a crowd waiting out front, so I had the idea to go out to the employee parking area in the back and I ambushed him on the way to his rental SUV.

Talk about carbon footprint! The semi-truck and the bus were running the ENTIRE TIME! He was also in a suburban. We should all petition Lindsey to tour in a Prius.

It's just that I have to mess with all of them to get them under the 100k file size limit.

:thumbsup:The photo of you and Mr. B. is so cool! I envy all of you guys who happen to be in the right place at the right time WITH a camera man! :thumbsup:

Yeah, I'm going to frame it and send it to Hoppy. He was very happy I got to meet Lindsey.

The arrangements were amazing. He used the single version arrangements for Go Insane and sort of for Trouble. He used the UTS tour guitar arrangement, but it was done the same way as the single version for the rest of it. The UTS tour wound up as it went on, this one has the first 45 mins or so as balls to the walls rock culminating in GOS before he slows things down a bit with SUD and BL, then he comes roaring back with Come and a few others. He slows down a bit again with UTS and DYMM and finishes off with GYOW. The encores were great too. He kind blew Time Precious Time last night. For whatever reason it wasn't going so well for him on that one.

sweet....thankyou for this.

I can't wait to go to my show Oct 2!!!!!!

I hope he does't cut TPT from the set...on Rockline I was entranced by it. Superb.

His voice was also much stronger and fuller than it has been in years. He sounded more like himself from 'The Dance' and much less strained. I think he started doing some sort of vocal treatments to save his voice.

michelej1 09-10-2008 11:55 AM

AJ it's so great that you got photos.

Yes, the show does hit the ground running. Starting it rocking is a lot different than starting with Not Too Late. I loved the UTS tour, but I think Lindsey has a new energy this time around. I only wish that I had known Great Day and Love Runs Deeper and gotten the chance to anticipate them live. That would have been even better.

Probably a stupid question, but did they do the "take a bow" thing, where they put their arms around each other and bow in unison?

Just curious.

Hey thanks! I kept asking most people I talked to if they were Ledgies. I'm glad to have met one. Thank you SOOO much for taking it. I just wasn't paying attention to what my body was doing. I mean, I was close to the Lindsey.. :blob1:

Sorry you look kind of pissed in the picture. Everytime I would snap it, you were trying to tell me to press the button and that it didn't work. :lol:

Lindsey was like, "oh I think it was fine." lol.

Well, after the pics there I just feel like I look really fat. Then again, next to Lindsey, Ethiopians look fat. :laugh:

Betsy 09-10-2008 01:20 PM

I LOVE the photos! Thank you so much AJ.

It is so hard to believe --- that concert was just last night and we're seeing photos!

(I can hardly wait for the audio....please, somebody, please have the technology for audio....)

michelej1 09-10-2008 01:24 PM

Absolutely sensational photos AJ. I can't believe you got so many.

So here is my review.

Got the the theatre quite a bit early so we went over the the restaurant across the street for dinner and drinks. As we were sitting there Lindsey and crew, Kristen too, pulled up in a white suburban type vehicle and all got out. Before we realized what was going on he was inside the building, though there was some lucky lady there who did get an autograph.

As far as the concert itself....it was great. The crowd was great....very into it, dancing, singing, jumping around. I could tell Lindsey and the band really enjoyed it. I had second row...wish I had figured out my camera beforehand as they did not monitor picture taking here and could have got some good ones!

Some songs that stick out for sure....Go Insane...refreshing for a change. Got tired of hearing the acoustic version all these years. Of course, my favorite is always I Know I'm Not Wrong, which was great and fun. I think I may have nodded off a bit during the middle of the set (I kid, I kid) but it did get a little boring. He needs to get rid of Come and Under the Skin and do something else. From reading the Saratoga review, sounds like he said pretty much the same things...the meaning behind Big Love...he was looking "out" for love and he did live on a house on a hill. The crowd loved that. Introducing the band seems to be the most fun for him...everyone laughed and joked about Brett being the rock of the band. I liked Treason...pretty good song, but I definitely felt like my time was preciously wasted after hearing Time Precious Time. Didn't seem to go very well and not a good song to end, imo.

I had hoped to get a picture after the show and since we knew he would be coming out the back we just waited there. I was surprised that no one was back there after reading older reviews and knowing that he comes out the back. Only one other person was there, though about 4 more people showed up. But anyway, as we were waiting, Neal and Brett came out to smoke cigarettes. I asked Brett if I could have a picture and he said yes. What a nice guy! He asked me my name, where was a I from, did we like the show...etc. He was really cool and thanked us several times for coming out and being great fans.

So we waited a bit more for Lindsey and after about ten minutes they pulled the suv up right by the door so as to make it difficult. Kristen came out first and did give me a sour look, like oh gawd. :confused: I guess I can understand, but come on, you are married to a famous person. Anyway, Lindsey came out and I asked if I could get a picture. He said "sure." Came over. I then became a sixth grader again and told him he was "awesome" and the show was awesome, which I felt pretty dumb saying, but he said thanks so much. Unfortunately, he is making a funny face in the picture I have (darnit). One thing is for sure...Lindsey is a skinny mini!!!!! He needs to gain some weight. Then some other people came over and got some pictures and autographs. He signed some autographs and said he had to go. He did seem to be in a hurry and not really in a good mood.

So, it was a pretty cool show. He did a great job, but I wish the set list was a bit different. Even my brother, who came with me, and who isn't a huge fan, said he needed to change the set list a bit as some of the songs sounded the same. Anyone else think Lindsey has more fun at the Fleetwood Mac shows?

Great review. Thank you. I agree with what you say here. I would say that him doing Go Insane alone is probably better, but because I am so used to it, the full band was exciting. I guess a rest is as good as a change!
