Just wondering, did she change the slideshow? All I find is the Isaiah pics but nothing about Mike

Mike was still in the slideshow.

 

[twaintrain]

There were a couple of funny moments last night. Whenever she came up on the jukebox to sing "Cowboy Casanova," with the old school mic, I thought 'I can barely hear her," and then she turned her mic around around. Lol Then during "Smoke Break" she sang the 'light it up' part on the first chorus. She noticed and gave a big smile like 'oops!' She sounded awesome.

It was odd, they had one of the sides completely blocked off. They didn't have the seats rolled out. I'm assuming they had it planned that way from the beginning, but when I saw her in Little Rock nothing was blocked off. The upper level seats at that end were available though.

thats strange,from the pictures it doesn't look like one whole side is blocked off.

like this one

One of the end sections, the lower level seats were not rolled out. There were people in the upper level though. They had a bunch of equipment there instead.

 

[twaintrain]

See how there are no people on the floor to the left. That whole area was blocked off.

I don't ever see anyone say just how brilliant Blown Away is as a live performance. That song just kind of envelopes you. It is like a steamroller, it takes no prisoners. Great show last night.

Oh okay, I could swear it was not that way at the last show I went to but I could be wrong.

It's a toss up for me between BA and SITW as to which is my favorite Carrie song of all-time. Those, plus CCA and IWALY were my stand outs for the live show.

 

[teesharky]

Was it a good sized crowd though? So glad you got to go!

Our only hope is the tweens have school this week and some schools won't let them use phones.

I multi task at work all day so I can still get votes in.

I'm not sure if it was a sellout or not but I could not see any areas with empty seats.

 

[twaintrain]

The Superintendent at the school I'm auditing came in this morning and asked about my weekend. I told him I was tired because I went to see Carrie last night and got home late. He said that she is as good as it gets and that he had been to see her in concert and it certainly left an impression. He said she's so consistent that you can take how good she is for granted and then put her in a group with others and she blows them away because she's so much better than everyone else.

He's now my favorite client!

I saw no empty seats Tee. In fact they had sold some of the seats in the blocked off areas

Hey guys! I'm back home now so I can share my photos. The battery on my camera was low so I didn't manage to capture any video. I hope you enjoy the photos I took. The show was amazing. I was so happy to see the Storyteller Tour in person. Carrie puts on a fantastic show. The stage setup and visauls were really impressive. "Jesus, Take the Wheel"' "Blown Away" and "What I Never Knew I Always Wanted" were my favourite moments of the show. It was a great night and worth the long journey. Hope to see Carrie again soon.

^^ Glad you had a great time in Memphis. And really glad you got to see the concert! Great pictures!

 

[rainbow1]

So happy for you Louisa!!

 

[Louisa]

Thanks guys. I appreciate your kind words. I had the best time in Memphis. Graceland was amazing. I went on Periscope and it was fun. I wanted to Periscope at the show but I didn't have any device with me. My iPad was taken by security. It was a great night though. I was singing along to every song.

"Before He Cheats".

I wish I could relive this night. It was great to see Carrie again.
