[[sobriquet]]

I'm really loving her softer vocal. The version of Fools Like Me is amazing imo. So want to see her live, gig looked amazing  

Where's the videos? Can anyone direct me?

And yes. Fools Like Me is amazingly gentle.

Tall Tales is first.  Skip to around 5:40 for Fools like Me.

I saw that one too. (: Thanks for posting.

How about the other videos?

This is the best version of "Fools Like Me"!!! Wow. I love this.

Very soft & gentle. I couldn't take to the studio version of it.

I swear if V would re-record all of her stuff, I would be the happiest fan ever.

[Martin.]

It would be interesting, to say the least.

I wanna see her rock "Unsung" or slay the piano with "Wanted". Play these old tunes, V!

[Weisz]

Fools Like Me has to be one of my H&T favourites. Lyrics are amazing, but the overproduccion kinda kills the song a little. So hearing this is amazing

i love the way she sang "everything" in the line "my eyes saw the chaos that started everything" (tall tales for spring). so beautiful

i really like fools like me too, but i didn't like the way she sang the bridge, it sounded... less powerful.

and what did she say about dear california?

[Byoungforever]

How long did it take her to come out after the show? Please tell me not too long...

[Ghisy]

@Byoungforever, she didn't come back inside the venue but outside. I'm not sure how long we waited but it wasn't that long. We were all talking upstairs and some girl told us she was at the other exit downstairs. We just stayed for like 5 minutes to say hi and they were on their way back to the city (NYC).

I was at the show. I finally got accepted on here. But anyways me and my friend were outside smoking before the show and I was like that's Vanessa walking her dog. So we sat in my friends car waiting to come back to see if it was her and it was! She actually stopped and talked to us for a few minutes and took pictures and autographed some pictures for us. There was no one else outside so she actually stayed there for a bit. It was the most amazing thing ever. lol. I just had to share.

[VaderDawsn]

Were there any other NESSAholics at this show in the Mezzanine? I sat in one of the Cushy seats front and center with my husband.

[JennaLeigh]

I was in the Mezzanine sitting at one of the high top tables in the center. But sitting in front of me was two very young kids.
