I remember some stranger sitting behind me asking if his girlfriend could borrow my binoculars during 'Destiny' because he said it was her favorite song. I can't remember her vocals though, which is a shame because when I hear SA live performances now I think they sound great compared to some of the snoozers she did on TITN, Timespace and OSOTM tours. I think I remember the show opening with 'Blue Denim' though I might be wrong.
It's possible I had a bad day or something that day, and it carried over to the evening and that's why it didn't click into my mind as much as some other shows did.

I have this show on VHS and it's an amazing performance from start to finish. It was the second show of the tour but you wouldn't know it. It was flawless, I wish I had been there. She did open with Blue Denim and then changed (which was awkard after the first song) and did went into Dreams. I don't think she opened with Blue Denim for any show after that but I could be wrong. She mentioned how hot it was and how she had to leave the stage to dry her hair. She seemed very relaxed and in a great mood, which is interesting because she seemed downright terrified in Boston for the tour's opener.
