I went to her show in Ventura Monday and had a great time. I got there later than I planned on at 6pm and was like behind 100 people and thought I'd have a terrible view. The line went around the block by 6:30pm so I figured I could be in a worse situation but just before they opened the doors a guy working there told me to come to the front and they're letting me in first along with another girl and so when I got in I saw that I had a pretty good spot with a good view of the stage.
Jason Reeves went on first and was very good so I bought his CD then a guy named Chris Pierce and he blew me away. His set was awesome and I bought his CD too.
While I was waiting for Colbie to do her set, Jason Reeves came over to sign my CD and take a picture with me and then security came over and told me to take the camera to the front and they would hold it until the end of the show and I was so mad because I was not even facing the stage it was away from the stage while there were people taking pictures and video of the first 2 acts and didn't get reprimanded. The people in front let me keep the camera as long as I didn't take pictures anymore.
Colbie was great and sang every song from the album along with a couple of new songs and she sang Droplets with Jason Reeves.
After the show, I took a picture with Chris Pierce and got his CD signed then I waited around hoping to meet Colbie. While I was waiting, I asked one of the security guys to get a setlist that was still on the stage and he got one. Then a lady that worked at the Theater came over to talk to me so we talked for a bit and I asked her if there was any way I could meet Colbie and she said she didn't think that would be a problem so she went to talk to her people. About 30 minutes later, she came out so I waited for her to make it over to me. She came over after a bit and I was able to take a picture with her and have her sign my setlist. It was an awesome night and I really like that venue. The people in Ventura seem a lot nicer than people in L.A. everyone was very friendly and helpful except for the guy that wanted to take my camera. I'd definitely go to see another artist I like if they were playing at that venue.
