This was a really fun show. I'm not so hot at writing reviews but I can tell you what she played at least... The setlist went SOMETHING like this:

Papa
San Francisco
Who's To Say
Divide and Conquer
White Houses
Put Your Hands On Me
The One
C'est la Vie
Winter
Best Behaviour
This Time
A Thousand Miles
Twilight

And everyone sat down in chairs

And there was no energy... I looked around and was unpleasantly surprised to see I was the ONLY one singing along (except to Ordinary Day). Then when she started playing her little intro to WH (the chorus notes), the audience started cheering and she told us she was thrilled that we knew the song. When she got to "maybe I'm a little bit..." A bunch of girls got up (me included) and ran to the front of the stage and Nessa was SHOCKED (in a good way) and afterwards she said that we choked her up because no one knows the album or the song... I was so happy for her, lol. The new songs were fantastic to hear live and I now officially love This Time and The One which were not that appealing to me before.
Her voice sounded really good, the sound system was much better than the last show I went to, although she did try one note on Papa that had me :x  But that was really the only major rough spot. I thought that Annie was particularly good tonight, as was Who's To Say.
My friend Chris and I ran to the back afterwards hoping for an autograph but we saw her get in her car (with her cute little doggie!!) and drive away, but no biggie cause I met her once and I was just happy with a good show.

The opening band, Raining Jane... AWESOME. I LOVED them. They were so damn refreshing. Funny, honest; they were a chick band that was actually GOOD. They were a four-piece and all of them played every instrument but one girl played the cello as well. And damn could they sing. They sang three part harmonies, kind of like the Wreckers. Only better 8O
I talked with the drummer afterwards and she was a doll, I asked for her autograph and she was so excited and touched by my compliments. I suggest you guys check them out.
Here are a few pics:

Y'all are quite welcome. I don't know exactly what it was about the show, it wasn't SPECTACULAR, but it left me feeling really, really happy. Like do you ever just feel totally content? Yeah it was like that. lol
