But at least when you flew home, you flew home sitting next to hot guy...thusly, making up for lack of good times.

*HATES AGAIN*

I'm patiently waiting their 12:30 east coast time call to fill us in.

OMG! Blue Lamp! DUH!

Suze, you are one smart sexy bitch.

Yes, the candelabra on the blue velvet over the grand piano was gorgeous. I did not get it on vid, though I was afraid to take the camera off Stevie, lol. I did catch the girls for a moment, though.

I'm sending the vid to Chris as we speak, hopefully you guys will be able to see it in a little while, or by tomorrow at the latest. I can't speak for him, I'm not sure when he'll be able to post it for us. Thanks for doing this, Chris!

I am wide awake, still on Vegas time, drinking a beer (yup, from the bottle) & typing away. I just listened to a RAL boot & I must say, B&tB last night was much more emotional, IMO. A few other random thoughts:

Lori sang on IAF, Edge & B&tb. Was she also on HSML & INTK? I thought on Tues she sang on IAF, left for FFG & HSML, came back for Edge. But did she then leave for INTK then return for B&tB? Doesn't make sense. Can't remember.

Also - I hope the foolish girl that kept screaming "LORI!" right at her feet the whole time she was on stage Tues wasn't one of you guys. How incredibly rude. It was apparent she wanted Lori to sign a Tshirt, but sheebus. They were in the middle of a show!

Oh, and Kelly - I believe the Sulamith photo was during the piano intro to Rhiannon; then the statues & unicorns showed up for the rock portion.

Guess that means I'll be patiently awaiting your 12:40am east coast time post on The Ledge.

Dude, my days and nights are all mixed up

I had one hell of a time waking up for work this morning. My flight home blew and 30 minutes away from Philadelphia, water began to drip in my window. The woman next to me and I freaked out. My ears were hurting the entire flight up until this morning so i'm wondering if something was wrong with my window.

PS - THAT GIRL WAS NOT ME, PEOPLE!

Thanks for the great posts, Paula. And yes, i'll keep you informed after I talk to them all.

Water? Coming in the AIRPLANE window?

I would have died. Holy crap!

I thought we had it bad: first, they were going to move us cuz the flight to KC that was supposed to leave from our gate at 4:20 was delayed d/t weather. THEN they said they moved us because there was a "swarm of bees outside the gate." WTF? Bees? I thought they were kidding (it was Southwest, they like to be silly!)

Until we were rolling down the runway through a gross enormous buzzing swarm of BEES! So the guy next to Theresa jokes "Hope they don't get in the air intake." I just look at him. He swears he's kidding. I am not amused.

Anyhoo, we got in about 30 minutes late, then had to wait another 20 for my trunk (as Theresa calls it, lol.) Got home about 1:30am.

Another random thought:

The shows have run around 85 minutes, and there is that 90 minute casino show limit. I do think it's entirely possible they had rehearsed a few more tunes (namely TTM & ROF) but couldn't squeeze them in. The show was not rushed, BUT there was not tons of extra empty time either. Even the Rhiannon & B&tB piano & Edge guitar intros were just long enough for her to change clothes.

Also - that percussion team (can't remember their names, too lazy to look at the other thread right now) was awesome. Totally in sync. I think is was during the Stand Back intro that it was really noticeable & impressive.

That would be Machito Sanchez and Sideshow Bob (forget his real name

) They were really great!

Yowza! Water in the window, ick. We were told last night that our flight would be delayed due to a problem with the engine that needed to be fixed.

Fortunately is was fixed correctly and quickly.

On Wed nite there was a guy next to me with a photo of Stevie that he wanted signed and kept bugging Lori about it too. There were so many rude fans that nite! And who was that chick using a flash during BATB? Oh yeah, that girl was me.

I stopped after a minute, I swear!

On the KC news tonight, they said a plane departing KC and going to DC had to make an emergency landing due to the weather. Pilot lost control for a while and they landed on a veeeerrry small landing strip. They interviewed some of the people on the plane, this one guy said the lady behind him was literally telling her kids goodbye.

Anywho, I was wondering and hoping none of you were on that flight. I think it was Midwest.

OMG! I'm a Buffalo girl, thank God (never thought I'd say that!) Scary stuff.

Jimmy Paxon. The show probably isn't quite over yet, didn't it end right about 10:00 Tues and Wed? Twelve minutes. . .

It sounded scarey. This happened last night.

skcin · #74 05-13-2005, 11:57 PM

Well, Tues ended around 9:45, Wed was a tad earlier. By the time they get out, and chat, and pee...

At first I thought it might be condenstation but then the pressure in my ears started to get more intense and I remembered that the window was doubled so that all the moisture would lay either on the outside window or in between the two panes of glass. Nope. The **** was dripping in the plane. I nearly had a heart attack. The woman next to me saw my face turn pale and we both agreed that shutting the blinds would be the best thing (not that the pos plastic over the window would have stopped anything from happening). Mind you, I NEVER take the window seat and it just so happened, this time I did (PS - I hate to fly with a passion and I flew home on my own).

When I flew to see Merf in NC back in March, the bitches sitting in the aisle across from me (we were sitting right behind the wing) kept commenting about the wing falling off of the plane. People...don't say **** like that because I will SO not be amused. Glad you and Theresa and Susan made it home safely <3
