So who else is attending this show?

Please note there's a 30% of rain on Wednesday the 30th as a cold front pushes through the area.

Gee, guess the Ledgie contingency for OKC will be a very small one...

Oh well, I will be there...

Hey Me TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess there are not many ledgies in the good ole bible belt!

I hope it does not rain tomorrow.

Well there's a 60% percent chance of rain tomorrow, so this may be one wet show....hopefully not a cancelled show.

according to the bulletin I received from Zoo Amp's myspace acct., the show is STILL on tonight "Rain or Shine" (As is the Heart/.38 Special show for Friday night).

I had plans to go to the OKC show tonight but I canceled because I didn't want to drive from Fort Worth to OKC in the pouring rain. Oh well ~ I will see her Friday night. You guys have fun and be safe

Was there talk of itbeing cancelled?

Funny thing is, When I went and saw Stevie in 98 and Boston in 03, there was a good chance of rain for both shows. It never did though. So today is nothing different for me.

rumors of it being cancelled, but the skies cleared up as soon as Chris Isaak hit the stage in his snazzy pink suit.

I would write out a review, but y'all (Who have seen the show thus far) know how the show went, But here's some things I did notice:

Stevie was very annoyed with her IEM (In Ear Monitor) system - I was down near the stage on the side where the SL Monitor was, and Throughout her set she kept making faces and hand motions that showed her displeasure - including a "look that could kill" early in the set because her volume was too high.

She looked damn good yet again, even in the thick humid Oklahoma air, which makes Texas' look like the desert. Mama-cita had it going on, I noticed how she swayed her hips during the "Baby baby baby" rideout section of GDW...Damned!!! That was smoking hot!

Stevie must have missed the message that Pres.Bill Clinton is originally from Arkansas, not Oklahoma before her dedication during "Landslide" - That was laugh-out-loud wrong

There was not the usual EO17 walk since there was a barrier that kept the VIP audience about 3-4 feet from the stage, but Stevie did walk along the front stage area and made a good "thumbsup" catch of what appearred to be a white shawl that was tossed her way (The "thumbsup" look Stevie made was classic). I did notice someone gave her a large 2 foot tall China doll that was dressed in red, that took Stevie's breath away - she was definitely thrilled!

I also spoke to one of Stevie's people pre-show as she hung out in front of me, who said they believed the show wasnt going to happened when they arrived and did load-in on Wednesday morning, This lady said "It didnt look good at all - Rain and mud dont help with this outdoor venue"....She also said "Red Rocks was the bomb!"

I say there was about 10,000+ at the Zoo Amp, It was VERY packed - moreso than I thought when I arrived at the venue at 4:30pm (An hour before the supposed "door opening" time). I guess the line of concert goers wound down the street since there was only 1 entrance to the facility. They're expecting the same crowd size & weather conditions for the Heart/.38 Special show Friday night

the fans of OKC have waited for a solo Stevie show since 1986, and she delivered.

The crowd singing along to "Landslide" was just as loud as it was during the July 1,2003 FM show at the Ford Center - But outdoors it echoed much louder.

Personally I liked the show...Definitely a

kathy1 · #13 05-31-2007, 11:20 AM

i can't wait til my show.

kathy1 · #14 05-31-2007, 11:21 AM

did you buy any merchandise? how did it look to you? because i was wondering if i should buy the shirts online and buy other things at the show.

estranged4life · #15 05-31-2007, 12:09 PM

Nah, I passed on it (Merchandise) - didnt see much I cared for, but the tour book looked alright.

I think it's better to purchase the items at the show.
