Man, well, it was a great show. The highlights for me were Concertina, Crazy, Indian Summer, LIQUID DIAMONDS!!, and Horses.

Well, I was able to meet a couple of people in person who go to the same message board I go to, which was great!!

I have to say that I saw the setlist for Phoenix, and I wish I could have gone to that show too! She played COOLING! I so wanted to hear Cooling last night! Phoenix also got Caught A Lite Sneeze, and Hey Jupiter.

But anyway, more about last night. I felt bad that my dad wasn't able to go, but when I found out that Lara wanted to go, my dad graciously gave up his ticket. I have the coolest dad ever!! I'm still going to make him a Tori mix tape though, but I'll put all the songs that she played last night, so he could at least hear her that way.

Lara enjoyed the concert so much though! It was so great to watch her get so into it! This was her first Tori concert and her second concert EVER. It was great to be at the concert with someone who was as excited about Tori as I am. Lara even got up the nerve and started dancing in the aisles and everything!

We really liked Ben Folds (the opening act) too. He was quirky, but really fun. He played Brick, which is one of my favorite songs by him.

I though Tori was so cute last night! "I love it here. I'm just a lady lizard!" Someone yelled "I love you" and she whispered into the mike "love you back" which I thought was really sweet. And then someone said they loved her shoes, and she said she loved her shoes too. So cute.

Maybe it was because I was so tired last night, even before the concert, but I have to say that the crowd as a whole kind of got on my nerves. Ben deserves as much respect as Tori does, and I hate how people feel the need to talk and filter in and out of the theatre while he's doing his set. I figure, if I am going to be spending this much money for a concert, I am going to stay for the entire thing, and try to enjoy the opening act as much as Tori. People were even filtering in and out during Tori's set. Why would someone want to miss anything? I'm sure Tori's used to it by now, but if I were performing, I would find it distracting if people kept getting up and down. Okay, I'm done ranting.

All in all, it was a grat night though, and I am so grateful for the chance to see Tori again!!!
