Just gonna post the setlist and say it was awesome, i watched it on livestream, a shame it was too short :C
Tall Tales For Spring
I Don't Want to Be a Bride
Fairweather Friend
Dear California
London
Carousel
-
That was a nice little performance. The site says the video will be available for replay shortly. :)
-
UGH! I can't believe they cut the live feed before the end of "Carousel", that was just rude!
It was short but sweet.
-
She sounded great. Ari & Skye's mic seemed too loud for me. The end had me like "wtf". She hit the last note of "Carousel" and then they cut her off pretty sharp-ish.
-
I agree! During carousel Ari's voice was practecly over Vanessa's. Then BAM off. She sang very,very well! (like always :D) It's just the ending was abrupt.
-
Yeah, it was short, but at least it was something. :\ I'm so glad more and more people are doing livestreams these days. Now I don't feel like I miss out on so much.
I loved V's sweater, by the way.
-
I dont know what you guys are talking about. I'm doing paperwork but I didn't notice that she got cut off. I heard her finish, and say thank you for buying the album and for her guys.
-
Yes, Ari's vocals was way to load, and it was rude as hell to break in the middle of the last note. Nice show though. V looked lovely as always.

Did you? Wierd :P
-
It might be something to do with the lagging then? I know it lagged a couple of times for me.

Yep! When she made eye contact with the screen... I was like "Woah..wow...OMG!" :P :D

That's so weird! Mine cut off too right after she hit the last note of Carousel. She sounded amazing but I thought Ari's vocals were a little too loud as well. Great little show though!
-
I just re watched the end of the performance, and they dont cut her off like i thought they did live so, its all good, eclv is right :D

That's good. I take back the "Rude as hell" part then ;)

Did you guys notice the lyrics change in DC.
"Im not in company when you feel the ghost"?
Or am I completely off on this?

Aha, must have missed it! Thanks for the rip :)
-
Thanks for the rip! I completely forgot about the time it was going to be streaming...
-
I filmed most of the songs (besides Carousel) but since it was livestreamed I don't see much of a point in uploading them. I might anyway tomorrow.
SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL, AS ALWAYS.

-
I sadly couldn't catch this. But aw V, such a babe as always. Good to see her wavy hair back, I much prefer it to the straight locks she's been sporting recently.
-
I too like the sweater. I'm not digging the red lipstick lately though. Just my opinion, not that she doesn't good, I just don't prefer it. I hope people will share there experiences with meeting her! A few nessaholics where going right??
-
it was nice to meet ya, vaderdawsn!
the show was lovely. the crowd was amazingly quiet. and so many people bought the album after the show (to get the wristband to meet her). v seemed really relaxed, and ran a little more commentary than the last few times i've seen her. tonight's stand-out performance was definitely "fair-weather friends". and skye singing along unofficially to "i don't want to be a bride" was basically adorable.
and she's reaaaaally nice. i thanked her for answering my livestream session question while she was signing my booklet (and distracted her from correctly spelling my name, whoops, next time!) she says john lurie (of her walker in the window story) has not been seen again.

lol, thought I was the only one, don't think it suits her
edit: you are still beautiful Vanessa :) in case you are reading this ;)
-
funny, first thing i said to her was "i love the red lipstick!" and she told me what shade it was and who makes it, but now i can't remember. damn. anyway, she was amazing! i thought the crowd kinda sucked (not rude at all, just less than enthusiastic) but i guess maybe it was the whole watching-a-show-in-the-middle-of-a-store kinda thing. she is just the most awesome girl ever. seriously. she really does appreciate those of us who are still around. she signed my cd "dear nicole, always comforting to see you, love vanessa" and when she handed it to me she said, "i really mean that." i thought i was gonna cry.

i went by myself and i was very lonely without my usual crew, but still had a great time. so worth it. that is all.
-
I like the part before she played Fairweather Friend where she said it was "about a letter". (: This was a really good performance. I loved Carousel.
-
it was nice to meet ya, vaderdawsn!
Ditto! It was so much fun chatting with you in line and afterwards.
It was a great show. The audio in the store had VC's mic at a pretty loud volume (in a good way). It was a great performance and she was so nice. She apologized for being late for her sound check. The show started pretty much on time.
How awesome was it that Skye was playing a kiddie xylophone!? I was swaying to the music like a typically find myself doing at a VC concert :-)
I was so thrilled to be able to tell her in person that I loved the song "Home" so much that I used lyrics from it in my wedding vows. I could tell she was flattered. I think she told me "that was sweet/great and/or cool" and congratulated me on my marriage (I wish I had a video-graphic memory for moments like this so I can remember word for word the exchange!) I then told her that even though I am married, I *love* IDWBAB. She smiled and said it was good to hear for both sides:-) I thanked her and she thanked me back.
She was so nice. It put me at ease. I was so anxious. It was a great day. I am so glad I went.
Here are a couple of snippets I recorded of a few of the songs:

that was sooo sweet, nicole.
glad you all had a good time.
how many people turned up? i think best buy were giving away 300 wristbands?
-

That's so sweet. It really just makes my day to hear something like that.
-
there was definitely not 300 people there. probably not even 200.

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but you can watch the whole thing here: http://www.livestream.com/liveatbestbuy/video?clipId=pla_77da6d1f-a9eb-4195-9017-d60e254ff89c&utm_source=lslibrary&utm_medium=ui-thumb
I thought this was TERRIFIC. She really hit her groove after the first few songs. In particular, I thought "London" and "Carousel" were some of her best performances off this record to date. Really strong vocals - she sounds so much better when she sings out. I would be very happy if the concerts were this quality. I wish there was a little more talking in between the songs, though.

About Bride:
This song is pretty important in this record. It's called I Don't Want to be A Bride. Ari and I wrote it together. Self-explanatory.
What does she mean??

Maybe she was just referring to how the title is self explanatory?

It probably is the title. unless it has something to do with Ari and Vanessa writing it together?

It's not as self-explanatory as she said. It got me thinking.
-
When she said it i thought the same, like, wow, she just said that she is with ari. But then i thought,.....oh she meant the title. :P

Vanessa and Ari aren't dating. Ari already has a girlfriend.
Ok. That cleared everything up. ;D
But I felt a little sad for v. LOL.
-

You just broke my heart.
And yeah I definitely figured she was referring to the title haha
I love when she was like "I'm saying what the song is called before playing it, that's what you wanted me to do, right?" she kind of has this attitude when she says it, bahaha

I know. The liked the idea of them being together, as well. They'd make a cute couple.

Sooooo, should we keep talking about it??? ;)

I loved to hear a little more about Fairweather Friend. She was saying how it was about a letter she found that she wishes she hadn't had found but she was glad that she did find. FWF is one of those songs that I think it way better live and has more vigor live and it's always nice to hear it when she performs it.

did he say he has a girlfriend or did you see him with her? Because if he just said it then that leaves it open to interpretation..
