Seattle 4/23

[CelticGypsy]

Great show! Stevie seemed a little tired but Rod was on fire! We were on the lower level, row 8 on the left side so I wish my photos came out better than they did but security was not letting anyone up to the stage at Key Arena. Was my first time there and I would have to say I don't want to attend another concert there. Seats were pretty dinky with no leg room at all..... especially if you're a tall person like my husband.

Stevie's neice, Jessie Nicks and Arlen? Nicks were there and Stevie mentioned Arlen moved to Seattle recently so Seattle was like her hometown too. She dedicated "Landslide" to them. I will try to post some pics later on or tomorrow if possible. Most of the Rod pics I took came out. Stevie's, I only got a couple of good pics. My camera kept messing up and people were bumping my arms, etc. None of the videos I took came out well at all.

It was nice when Stevie hugged Lori, Sharon, Carlos, Waddy and even Rod before her show ended and after she sang with Rod on the duets. They sang "Young Turks" and "Leather and Lace" and Rod messed up on Young Turks if I remember it right. It was funny. The crowd definitely was ROD'S fans but they warmed up to Stevie about the middle of her show and they really loved Dreams, Rhiannon, Gold Dust Woman and Love Is.

Rod's set is pretty colorful! I wished Stevie would do something more like that when she goes on tour again this year.

I had a good time at the concert and the weather was really beautiful for Seattle. Of course, this morning we woke up to rainy weather again.
