04/02/2011 Mountain View Manor - Glen Spey, NY (review)

[Rabbits_on_the_run]

Yeah there will be a video!! Great I also kind of like the fact that she didn't play ATM, it would be a waste in such a short gig. Can't wait for your full review!

[Martin.]

Glad to hear Skye is back. I wondered what happened to him, aha.

Music video? Awesome!

So happy you had a great time and even more happy you all went together to support Vanessa. ^_^

A music video? Maybe if the shoot will start in 2 weeks, then maybe the video will be released next month?

And I hope it's the video for 'Carousel.' (:

[Martin.]

Maybe there's some truth in "Carousel" being listed as a single on Wikipedia ... Hmm. Still taking it with a pinch of salt though until I see something official.

[[sobriquet]]

Actually, there are only three songs that I think are going to be the music video: "Dear California," "Carousel," and "I Don't Want To Be A Bride." Those three are the mentioned songs in an article from Razor and Tie itself.

and she told us she's touring in the summer. 

In the summer? I do hope it's gonna be in July because I won't be able to go in August, damn you work!

[lydia]

Glad to hear the show was good. I can't wait to hear recordings!!
And also..
She's going on tour??!! And shooting a new music video?!?!
I can't wait to see the video! I'm really hoping it's Carousel.
And I hope I can see her on tour this summer!

Thanks. I was watching these as you uploaded them.

Here's the "Carousel" performance:

What was the vocal performance like in the room? Because I don't think she sounds too great here, to be honest.

Oh, and the website song sounds lovely. I wish she'd have played that!

Thanks again and glad you had fun.

[KULPDOGG]

oh she actually sounded amazing!!
the PA system fucked up a tiny bit near the end of carousel, you can tell, the song was perfect besides that.
Her voice was FANTASTIC, especially during Home, you can really tell she was on the ball.
she always does so amazing while performing with Skye.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love all this news.  A video and a tour??? I'm so glad you all went, had a good time and brought back all this info.  Glad to hear the violinist was playing!  LOOOOVE violin!  Does Vanessa look more like one of her parents than the other? Glad to hear they were supporting her and the cause.  Wonderful that you got to meet them, I take it you didn't get to talk to her at all?  Can I make a new guess of when the first single will drop?  My March 21st guess was OBVIOUSLY off the mark.  My new one is May 1 (my anniversary and I will be out of town so of course something will happen then).  
Thanks everyone who went and uploads stuff, you're the best!

oh, no we got to talk with her some.
she came right up to us after soundcheck to say hi.

it was a very intimate evening.
Vanessa was wandering around with her parents. I felt like I was constantly standing a few feet from either her or her parents at all times, haha (which is like very true actually, her parents were 2 rows behind us sitting)

Brian bought Mr. Carlton a beer! LOL!
it was seriously an epic night. Vanessa was very friendly, as were her parents.

There should be a pic with me/V/Brian & one with me/V/Nicole when they decide to upload them  
oh and one with me/Nicole & Brian that Mr. Carlton took for us.



edit: and yes, that is that song from the website, that's why I typed "website song" next to it. lol

totally random picture inside the first building/mansion we entered (which was apparently the wrong part of this place lol)

that's it for my pictures.
Also, I'm currently uploading the 4 videos, but I'm seriously going to bed now, so if anyone wants to stalk my youtube and post the links here when they're done, feel free. (if not I'll post them when I get the chance, and of course when I can I'll put up mp3 links)
Enjoy =)
