I WENT! it was my first Ness show. God I love her even more now. She's absolutely stunning in real life!!! Wow there are quite a few fans in the bay area. AND she says she loves SJ and thinks we're some of the best fans. WOOT! Represent! haha.

I'm so happy. Now, it's just a matter of time before I go to another Ness concert!

i was front row where she could look out and see me from the piano. If you saw, I threw the thing on stage after her more than this encore. She was great! I waited about 8 hours in the park to see her. it was so worth it. I took in total 175 pics which will be on a slideshow once they all upload [photo bucket is taking forever!]

So it was a lovely evening in San Jose. Good friends, great music, beautiful weather. Vanessa missed a few notes but if you haven't been to 40+ shows you wouldn't know this. The setlist was shorter than I was hoping but is it ever really long enough? She was accompanied by Mark B. on guitar. There were a ton of people there. More than I have ever seen there. And the people, mostly girls, knew the words to most of the songs.  8O

Yeah, I felt so bad for you that she looked back and then kept walking. Katia and I tried to say hi to you.

I was very excited too. Sadly, no one I know really watches the show so they didn't care. I posted in the My Life on the D List thread about my encounter.
