Probably for the first time this century, got there 3 hours early, was the third one in the building and against the stage right in front of Kat. One of my greatest concert experiences ever. Her voice has lost none of it's power and her facial expressions are only more intense. The whole reason to be up front really.

need something with dead on facial expressions but :44 to :46 at any angle

[www.youtube.com]

first song Jungle Train
:53 to :59 full body chills, I was afraid she wouldn't sound like that anymore

[www.youtube.com]

The mic stand is drooping yet she is able to perfectly contort and keep singing, and the way she spits out HOOK at 1:22 and the mic jerks forward an inch [www.youtube.com]

About 20 minutes into the band I decided to just bail. At least I got a piece of cake. Dave, please book the Willie Chambers Band!)

I tried for the Fonda, struck out, and in a fit of anger said screw this and put my San Diego ticket on Stubhub.

I saw quite a few shows but the highlight was finally getting to see Prince in concert. I was sitting (mostly standing and dancing) literally in the last row of the venue but I still had an amazing time. Fantastic concert.
