WOW! Great show! I had 3rd row center seats which were GREAT! The show lasted 3 hours and 45 min with a 20 min intermission.
Vince sounded a little tired at first but his voice actually got better as the night went on. He played "The Key of Life" for his father (instead of "Hard to kiss the lips" I think he's been doing). He also sang "Give me Jesus" because he said Amy's friend Fernando Ortega was there that night. I think the rest of the set list was the same that he's been doing for all these shows.
The crowd really loved the Del McCroury band - they were very good.
I'm an Amy fan also so I loved her set.. she goofed up and introduced "It takes a little Time" when they were really doing "Big Yellow Taxi". I think it flustered her because then she goofed up a few words in that song. She really sounded good on the "Faint of Heart" song with Vince.
I was impressed with Jenny also - her voice is really strong.
The crowd was older than I expected but very appreciative of Vince. They were not the stand up and clap along crowd but again they were into the show. They did give Del McCroury band a standing O after their 2nd set.
I have pics that I haven't downloaded yet. I also got to do M&G beforehand. It was a little rushed but I did give Vince a congrats card for Country Music Hall of Fame.
I'm sure they are ready to be home. Amy mentioned that Corrina was missing them.

Hi all!
It was a great show, even though I ducked out early (was feeling a bit ill). I loved meeting you all!
I also have pictures but don't know when I will get to downloading. It may be this weekend or later, as I have a lot of concerts to attend this week and next at the State Fair.
Oh, and I met Trisha Yearwood this afternoon! Those from the show last night know I was hoping for Garth, but she was really nice and looks great (she and Garth have been losing weight). Now I can't wait for her show tonight!

You may try downloading them to Photobucket (you can open a free account there) and then post the link here. That's how I do it.

[size=3][font=Arial]Yeah Kellye - It was awesome! Were you right behind the guy with the beer? We were behind the lady in red who kept dancing in her seat.! I was directly in front of the Del Mccory band and I had no body sitting in front of me!! How lucky was that? I got some pretty good pictures of them, the ones of Vince were kinda washed out, but a few did come out good!

Robin,
We were behind the beer guy - spilled all the way to my purse - grr... I know which lady in the red you were talking about. I have to say I was dancing in my seat some too

The people in front of us in 2nd row did not come back after intermission so we really had a great view after that!

Kellye and Jackie - thanks for the concert review and the pictures. It's always nice to hear about Vince's concerts and pictures are always good.
