================================================ Subject: Re: CONCERT REVIEW--CLEVELAND From: "Lee Reed" To: Date: Mon 28 Jan 2002 02:00:15 -0500 ================================================ i think gina summed it all up pretty well...but i beg to differ on one point...i really think virgos rocked...they sounded really good, and i plan to buy their cd asap...i was really impressed by tantric...from what i'd heard here, i was prepared to be disappointed...but they really did sound great... creed absolutely moved me to tears...god, they rock...stapp had the guitar out for don't stop dancing and stand here with me...to be honest, i was so into the music, that i didn't pay a whole lot of attention to the visuals...not to mention i was almost as far away as gina...but it was cool, after the encore, brett and mark were throwing out picks and flip went and threw out some sticks...awesome show all around...sorry i missed you, gina...maybe next time... >From: "Gina K." >> >No, I'm not crazy, just a little high on adrenaline, so there's NO WAY >I'll be able to sleep! So I might as well type this now. Lee or Kerri, >hopefully you can check my info and make sure it's right. :o) > >My friend Tracy picked me up at 4:00, and we were downtown by 4:30. We >had the intention of eating dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe, but we couldn't >because it was an hour and a half wait when we got the pager, which they >didn't have any left, and they wouldn't take our name unless we had one. >So we decided to eat in the food court at Tower City instead, which was >actually better because it was cheaper than the HRC would have been. >After we ate it was 5:30, so we wasted time looking in stores and then we >headed over to the Gund around 6:00, taking the walkway. Before we went >to our seats we went to the bathroom and bought t-shirts. By the time we >sat down it was 6:30. > >So for the next half hour we talked to these girls that were sitting by >us, but then these other people came and it turned out the girls were in >the wrong seats. So we didn't get to talk to them anymore, and the people >that replaced them weren't as friendly. :o( We stuck out the next >half hour calling our friends going, "OMG! We're actually here!" on our >cell phones. LoL. As for the seats--far, FAR away. But smart me brought >binoculars, and the best part was there was a family with little kids >next to us, so their dad paid me $10 so they could use my binoculars. I >told him he didn't have to pay me, but he insisted on it. LoL. > >Virgos came on a little before 7:30. They were OK, but I don't think I >would go see them in concert if they went on their own tour. Maybe it >would have helped had I known some of their music. The crowd didn't go >out of their way to cheer for them, IMO. They played about half an hour. > >Around 8:30 Tantric came on. They were AWESOME. They really seemed to get >everyone going. Tracy even bought their CD at the t-shirt stand. :o) I >would have, but I didn't have enough $ left over after buying my t-shirt, >Creed sticker (LoL), and a bottle of water. But I have added it to my >to-buy list. I would DEFINITELY go see them if they came back on their >own. They too played for half an hour. > >After Tantric went off, me and Tracy went to the bathroom and were back >by 9:20 because we figured Creed would start around then. They didn't >come on until about 9:45, and until then everyone in the arena was doing >the wave, cheering, chanting, you name it! They were even throwing beach >balls around! It was cute. > >Sooooooooo they started their set with Bullets, Freedom Fighter, and What >If, followed by MOP and Torn. Here are the rest in no order b/c I can't >remember the order...Sorry. Maybe Lee or Kerri will be able to get you >guys an order and add ones I missed, though I'm 99% sure I included >everything. > >Who's Got My Back >One Last Breath >WAWO >WTLF >One >Don't Stop Dancing >Lullaby >Weathered >Stand Here With Me >Higher >My Sacrifice > >BTW, I just thought I would mention that Scott looked HOT in his leather >pants, and Mark looked SO good. I would have died if I didn't have my >binoculars cuz from our seats they looked about an inch high. No joke. I >didn't see Scottie till the very end, when he was throwing his sticks to >the crowd. He looked pretty cute. I thought all you ladies would want to >know. :o) > >Overall it was AWESOME. I will not be able to wait until they come back >to Cleveland...hopefully this summer??? *crosses fingers* > >Any questions/comments feel free to email me! :o) > >Gina _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com To unsubscribe or change your preferences for the Creed-Discuss list, visit: http://www.winduplist.com/ls/discuss/form.asp
