Show was great!
Papa
San Fran
Ord Day
Who's 2 say?
White Houses
Put your hands on me
One
CLV
Annie
This Time
Best Behavior
Winter
ATM
Twilight

Oddly the actual set list from her piano say she was gonna play Rinse after Best Behavior but she didn't. When she introduced, Best Behavior she said that most of the fun we have is on our bad behavior. was really good by the way. I loved all the new songs. This was the first time I had heard them. she talked about writing them.

This was the opening night for this venue so all the people my parents and grandparents ages were everywhere 8O . I guess they donated to the opening of the new theater which looked like a re-built cathedral. It was bizzarre. The girl sitting next to me was surprised as well. I'm serious like 75 percent of the crowd looked like college professors and stuff. They were all from the music and arts dept at OK University I guess. There were a lot of younger peeps in the balcony. It's almost as if the school had given away a bunch of close seats to the people who sponsored the building's opening.
 Regardless she was amazing. Due to the different crowd it was pin drop quiet unlike some of the bar shows I've been to. It would have been GREAT for recording the show. The crowd loved her and she seemed to be having a blast as usual. I sat on the 12the row and then went to the 4th row for Twilight.  

She left after the show with her dog. I saw her dog take a crap by the street before they left. Kinda funny. Cute Dog though.
She sounded great.

A dog had bit her thumb and broke her nail yesterday and that's why she said she goofed on Winter. It was hillarious.

I don't think Alecs will mind me answering because he doesn't get to get online much and has a big weekend planned although he might be on today whatever, anyway, he said that they didn't allow cameras and even the person with a press pass got yelled at.

Umm...I brought my camera in and nobody said anything.  It's huge--there's no way they missed it.  At the beginning of the show they announced, "No flash photography."  I was in the balcony, however, so it turns out I was too far away to get any good shots.  Sorry!  

The show was, of course, amazing.  At one point she said she should come to Oklahoma more often.  I was thinking, "Don't tease me!"  

I didn't realize the venue was brand new.  I thought it was quite adorable.   :)

Oh, maybe I misunderstood and he said, no flash photography and the guy with the press pass had to tell him he had a pass.

I wondered if you were in the balcony. I knew you said you were going to go to the show. Did you wait around for a bit after the show? I'm wondering if I saw you and didn't even realize it. Were you there with another girl and two guys?

Well, I never know where to wait if I want to try to talk to her or something...besides, I had a 2 hour drive ahead of me and have to get up at 6:30 every morning.
