5:23am DETROIT quick review....

[catinthedark]

Okay - I apologize in advance for any incoherency... Just got in, but will write a few quick thoughts before I crash... Because there were SO many great moments....

First off: Stevie looked phenomenal. Stunningly beautiful - happy - her voice was perfect. I have not seen her like this in ages. She is in the best shape in decades. And all those people talking about her being skinny - holy crap. I don't know what that girl is doing, but she is teeny tiny. Especially in the pants at the beginning - she looks about 35. And she has the energy of someone half her age. And she just GLOWS. I could go on with a lost of adjectives, but suffice to say, she looked striking and gorgeous.

THAT is the greatest impression I will take away from this show.

The chemistry between Don and her was totally sweet - lots of smiling, hugging, slow dancing, etc.

Every single song was bang on - tomorrow, I will go through with details. Stand outs: Stand Back, SDMHA (this was amazing!!! I love the attitude she gives on the "stop draggin my, stop draggin my, STOP!!! (stop draggin my heart..) Yeah, yeah, yeah..." It just rocks live - much better than just hearing the boot.

BATB was beautiful. She looked stunning - took several pictures throughout on my phone - will see tomorrow how they came out.

Security SUCKED. Evil, evil, evil. Bree and I played musical seats all through the show, which ticked them off to no end but it was mainly to make sure we were positioned for Edge. And we were - and they DID let us rush the stage (thank GOD). So both of us got there, I shook her teeny little hand - I took her hand in both of mine, and she looked straight at me and smiled, and I said "thank you," and she nodded and said "you're welcome." And then she actually grapsed my other hand as she continued by, and then on her way back, I sort of held her arm just above her hand (she had the velvet gloves on - it was chilly in Detroit!!)

Anyway - it was awesome, incredible. I'm SO glad I saw this show - more tomorrow...

Hi to Bree, and Jill (Moonchilde) and Lisa (LittleCricket)... Hope you guys had as awesome a time....
