she looks so happy(:
-
i was right in front of the stage.
but i had to buy a $14 cosmo.
(i'm only 18, fake id ftw)
it was really lovely. I got one of the posters, they were $30 and signed by both vanessa and the artist. i was just disappointed she didn't play the marching line as I was really looking forward to that. she messed up a few times but it's always cute when she does anyway.
-
So glad she's playing other songs off her older albums & adding variety to her shows. Oh wait...
But seriously, glad you had a good time and enjoyed the show! The picture & video is great! :D

I like mistakes. They're funny and a reminder it's not some BS lip-synced show with sampled vocals. I kidded Skye about missing the first 8th note in Nolita Fairytale. I apologized for laughing out loud and persuaded him that I meant it in jest. He's a cool guy.

Were you the tables with 2 girls next to us or the one with a guy?

Definitely, if I went to a V gig and she didn't mess up, I would be disappointed ;D

She didn't mess up on Monday!

Glad to hear the show was good! I hope she plays the Marching Line live!!!!!!!!!! :)

Before this thread goes any further, I must give the biggest shout-out to Let, who was cool as all heck and supplied me with a last-minute ticket. Traffic was massive trying to get across town(I work on the West Side) and she was nice enough to leave a ticket for me at the door with my name and a nice spot at a table near the stage. Let rocks my socks.
Also, great to see Brian, Ghisy, Nicole, and Katia!!

the one with a guy right in front of the rhodes.
Oh ok, I've seen you then. I was at the table right in front of the piano with 2 other guys (Kulpy and bwilli). This table sucked, I could not see Vanessa when she was on the piano. Thank you Joe's Pub for your terrible seating arrangement...

Yeah, I remember you guys. I couldn't see her either. CONSIDERING THE RHODES WAS RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE. Oh well.
-
Come to think of it, that set-up could have been better. You get reservations for dinner, a seat right by the stage, spend all that money, and get to watch the top of the Rhodes cabinet. I mean, I'm 5' 11" and Vanessa looked like a floating head. That was Sunday's show.
Tonight, I was at a table in the corner and had to stand up to see her at some points.
I wonder why they didn't put the piano in the corner. It would have given Ari and Skye more breathing room. Also, lots of space was wasted by those huge floor monitor speakers. I can't imagine they were needed at a low-volume gig like this where you could scare the band by cracking your knuckle.
I'll say this: being inches from the Rhodes cabinet was sublime, sound-wise. Won't be forgetting that any time soon.

Aw, thanks, Dan. We're a pretty good team the all of us. Such a fun week.
I'm back in California, straight from the airport to work. I still haven't slept except for the broken sleep on the plane.
I only took one video last night. It's "Home" which I was so happy she did. It was so appropriate and beautiful with Skye. It's a little shakey and I didn't get the boys as some people were standing up in the corner blocking my view, so it's all a floating head. Ha ;)

I have some photos on my FB and more are on the way. I also have some videos maybe later or tomorrow. Gotta catch up with all these emails from work etc. Oh and sleep will be nice.

Sounds like where my friends and I sat on Monday. When VC was at the piano, all I saw were her legs. But, I was happy to get a good view when she played the Rhodes and to be able to be there, hearing her live. There's magic in the air when seeing/hearing her perform live. I can't wait to see her live again.

Why didn't you introduce yourself!?!
I tried to introduce people to other people from Nh.com. Next time we'll do a better meet up.

I tracked down a few Nessaholics during dinner. I met Sarab, BWilli, Kulpy and Nicole briefly. I think I may have spotted you in the bathroom line before the show, but I wasn't sure! Hopefully next time, I'll have more confidence :P
-
Aw, well they should have taken you over to meet Katia, Nicole and I.
-

aw, we're bad nessaholics. :(

No worries. I think things were hectic. Next time! There *will* be a next time ;D
-
So they didn't stream that show on livestream?
LOVED that she played "Home" again! I got to meet Skye after the show, nice fellow!

I checked Livestream last night and it looked like they weren't streaming Wednesday's show. I am glad that they at least streamed the first 2 shows.
-
She needs to play Home in her every show again. Good old times :)
-
Definitely a great show as always. And like Dan, I enjoy her little "mess ups". I'm pretty sure she stumbled on a whole line in Home haha.
As always it was great to see everyone, and meet some more Nessaholics.
After this week Joe's Pub will be closed until September for renovations. I loved being up front, but it is unfortunate that people sitting up front cant see anything (she has great legs though ;) )
I only recorded Fools Like Me for this show. I took a couple of pics, but they aren't so great since no flash is allowed. I was hoping to snag a pic with her as this was the last show I'd be attending on the mini tour but she bounced right afterwards.
I had a great week leading up to may vacation next week. Big love for V and all the Nessaholics :)
-
We definitely need to do a proper Nessaholic meet-up. And not that place we went to after Sunday's show, 'cause we couldn't put tables together. How ridiculous. We all know that groups of people NEVER go out in the city. ???
It's tough to do at a show. It's usually dark and I'm hoping noone suggests name tags. Ha.
VC mentioned she's coming back in the fall...did I not see the dates or have they not been booked yet?

speaking of which, thank you so much for all those introductions!
and to all of you I met: it was great meeting you! haha :D seriously, though.
-
Vader, were you the woman who was a teacher from Philly?
Nope. I am in Software Development/Systems Integration, but I was at the Philly show.
-
Ohh, ok! I was behind a woman in line on Sunday's show who I thought might be from the boards.
-
now that I have all my youtube videos up, I feel like I can post. lol.
for now all I have is this show. all the other videos from the other shows are still on Ghisy's computer.

the show before I talked to Vanessa and asked her if she could play Hear the Bells for the show on the 29th (because I heard her play it during sound check for the Boston show on the 25th)
more or less she said it might be ready, but obviously it wasn't because they didn't play it =P lol.
that's ok though, just a shame I can't make it to the california shows to see it.
this night was good. the 3rd of the Joe's Pub shows...
Vanessa changed the words in I Don't Want to Be a Bride to "I don't have any expectations" instead of "I don't want to have expectations"...
and I have my reasons for why I think she did that ;)
the show on the 27th (2nd show) felt a bit weird.. like there was tension between umm ari & v.. and well.. I guess they made it right for the next show :P lol, just a feeling, sorry if that's saying too much.
Heroes & Thieves was played on piano instead of Rhodes like the show on the 27th.
I loved H&T on Rhodes, but this was very good too, also a good thing she switched it up a little from the last show.
didn't get to see Vanessa after the show, she rushed off, but I did see and said hi to Ari & Skye.
our (me, Brian & Ghis) table for this night was the closest of the 3 nights, but as my videos show, we didn't have a great view of Vanessa, what with the piano blocking most of her and all. Still able to see her head and feet, and of course all of her when she played the Rhodes, so it was good anyway.
but yeah, Joe's Pub sucks.
Vanessa said (you can hear in my video for Home) that they might be back in the Fall...
ugh, I hope it's a different place, cause Joe's Pub is a pain in the ass.
p.s. Skye played xylophone on Dear California again (but he did that all 3 nights, so it's nothing special for this night)
uhhh, I got a set list... but it's a typed out one, Vanessa didn't do hand written set lists for these shows. also, since I didn't see her after the show, it is unsigned.
what else am I forgetting...........uhhhhhhhhhh
I saw Ari's brother and mom after the show too, lol. but I mean I didn't say hi to them obviously, that would've been weird. but still kinda cool there was 2/3rds of The Upwelling there. lol!
uhhhh SKye rode his bike to all 3 shows =P
I donno what else to say, I'll just post again if I think of something ;D
-
Thanks Kulp. I've watched most of those vids already.
Vanessa and Ari, eh? Well...good luck to them.
-
Wow, wait!?! Did you really post videos of V's bottom half? Why didn't you just rip the sound?
-

lol! they're not ALL like that! I got a good view when she played on Rhodes, also I moved the camera a tiny bit I think moreso for the later songs.
It's not like you can see anything anyway :P just her dress blowing in the fan.
actually my original intention was so people could see when she uses the foot pedal, but it was too dark I think.
eh.
-
I had a feeling about her and Ari, just speculation. I mean, they have chemistry for writing and the such, you can only imagine after spending so much time with a person with whom you connect that things would progress in that direction. I wish them well if that's the case, she could do worse! I believe Joe's Pub is going under renovation so maybe if she does go back there it will be much different.
I guess we'll be seeing each other in the fall then! yay~
-
The renovated version seems like it will be a big improvement. They have drawings of what the layout will look like here:
http://www.joespub.com/content/view/546/44
I think all of it will be seated as well.
-
I do hope the renovations will help. although they need to renovate their menu as well. there is not much on there. The 1st two shows I got the same sandwich each time, then i got hummus at this show. kulp had the same sandwich at all 3 shows.
and according to nicole (ilovehanson) the brownie sunday was terrible haha.

The brownie sundae was horrendous! I had a sandwich the first night and the banana split the second night. The latter was actually not that bad! The sandwich was mediocre at best...

LOL kulp had the same thing. I had 2 different salads - the Caprese and the arugala both having way to much pepper or something that made it too spicy. How was the hummus? I Know we were debating about that...
I had a mojito drink as well, which was good but TINY for $14.

This is what I've been thinking too. I thought I was the only one to do so...
Maybe, that's why Bride sounds so perfect.

I had the hummus and the brushetta all 3 times (the brushetta i had them sub out the hummus for the toppings with cheese in them) and i must say the hummus and bread was very good. yay for being vegan ! there weren't many other options for me anyway :)

Looks pretty well thought out. Did they get rid of the bar in the back? Seemed like a waste. No real place for merch, either. Looks like that first pic is a view from the stage and the other from the seating. If they pushed back the walls and got rid of that weird backstage area, it would be really nice.
I kinda like Joe's Pub. Tickets are dirt cheap. Even if you figure in minimums for food, you're still way ahead of the game, and the artist is right in front of you. Compare what I paid to see VC with what I paid for McCartney tickets....yow! Hurts to even sit down.

Very pretty! Thanks for posting. What kind of camera do you have? It takes really nice pics!
-
Thanks. It's a Cannon SX30IS. It was a birthday present to myself ;)
-
Awesome! My next camera purchase will definitely be a Canon. My mom has one too and her's takes way better pics than mine. Also, happy belated birthday :)
-
1) You have a good quality cam!
2) What a lovely view.
3) How lucky of you to attend one of her NY shows.
I'm Ashley, by the way. Nice to meet you!
