I'm home... taking a day off here to recover. This concert was AMAZING, better than Omaha really. I wanted this one to feel special because it was in my town, and it was everything I could have asked for. It felt like everyone was way more energetic, at least the people in my section were. We were all dancing! I was in the 4th row, I was in the last seat out to the side away from the center, and I was nervous that the sound would be distorted there right in front of the speaker, or that I would have a blocked view, and that maybe I had accidentally bought a bad ticket that the arena dumped because it was out to the side. But it was perfect!!! Sound was perfect, view of the main stage was perfect. When I read reviews of this arena beforehand, they all said, "There's not a bad seat in the house", and they were right. It is really a beautiful arena! This was the first time I was close enough to the stage to really be able see their faces and to actually SEE Chris at the piano, instead of looking at the screen. I was on Jonny's side so Chris did come over a lot, but I could see them all clearly in the center of the stage as well. And he changed his shirt during Midnight! Does he always do that now? I haven't been close enough to see before, but I could see last night! The security guards were right next to me and they were great. They were funny, and serious enough that I felt safe and like they were doing their job, but they were not obsessive LOL. When I was in St Louis the guard did not even let me get a few inches out into the aisle while I was dancing, but these guys were not so uptight, I was able to have a little space to move around. I was talking to them before the show. They asked me about my MX band, (I wore the band you sent me Carina!), and they asked why someone was dressed like an elephant. I explained it and the lady said she was going to go look up Paradise on YouTube after the show LOL. They also said they are releasing a live CD in November, and they are going to put the special request song from Kansas City on the CD! So my voice will be in there somewhere. Everyone around me was so nice, we chatted and talked about the other shows we'd seen. It restored my faith in the world and my own city, which I had started to feel like lately has become larger and more unfriendly. When I was in Omaha the people in my row were starting to push past me to leave during the bows, and I was like, nope Im staying! Here in KC no one was doing that, we were all taking it in till the last second. Everyone around me seemed to be taking a lot of video which is good since I'm challenged in that area LOL. Us Against The World, on the live album in November... oh I'm getting emotional here just listening to it....

Excellent news on the CD! Hopefully they might do some more then?
I am so glad you had the best time Leann. Life is meant to be like this... I wish all of the world could experience these feelings, then there wouldn't be so much hatred.
