MY REVIEW/PICS FROM THE PHILLY CONCERT TONIGHT.
Also, this is my first post here.

My sister and I got there all early, like we had planned to. We sat there for far too long watching them play through a loop of like, 5 Carrie Underwood videos, 1 David Cook video, 1 Daughtry or whatever the fuck his name is video and the Ford commercials. Finally the show started like, 15 minutes late but IT'S OKAY IT WAS WORTH WAITING FOR.

Sarver was first. He was alright. I wasn't expecting much from him (lol, whoops) so I guess I was pleasantly surprised that he was decent.



Megan is just beautiful, like other than that nothing at all matters. And she sang Put Your Records On which is like, one of my favorite songs and I love it so much and she did a fantastic job with it. And she made some comment about being scorned by love, which kind of made me laugh, idk why, just they way she said it.



Scott- Okay. Me and my sister made a LOT of blind jokes leading up to his performance. Some woman stepped on me in the parking lot and I called her Scott. It was bad. So he comes up on the piano from the floor and was really good. Then he says something about something and was like "HIGH FIVE" and held up his hand and started to crack jokes about how Seacrest put up his hand for a high five and of course Scott didn't know and proceeded to make a bunch of jokes about himself so I feel a lot better now. Plus he sang A Thousand Miles and- have we ever discussed how really good falsetto effects Jenn? Scott has a really good falsetto.



Lil was exactly what I expected. Really boring until she did Single Ladies. I don't like her, I don't think she's anything special, but she did a decent SIngle Ladies. I thought of Joe Jonas the whole time. Whoops.



Anoop looked really good. He made really intense faces when he sang and- eh. Not so impresed by Anoop either. But he looked really good. Did I say that already? Oh.



Matt. God. I think I offically Stan Matt. I was a casual fan but after seeing him live- I don't even know. He was so good and he has a really good stage presence and the fedora totally works for him. Georgia On My Mind was fantastic and. I'll just post some pictures now. (this is where my sister failed epically and didn't take nearly enough pictures. fffffff.)



Then there was a bunch of group numbers that I had a hard time keeping track of / they all blended into each other. I know Lil & Megan sang Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You, then Matt and Scott did the Tell Her About It / dueling Piano thing, and then there was the number with all of the guys. Idk, I'm not so great at this guys.



Allison was after that, and fuck, she's so fierce. She came out with her sparkly guitar and honestly, out of everyone on the tour except MAYBE Adam, she owns the stage best. She seriously gives Adam a run for his money and he has years of experience on her. When Allison sings, it doesn't matter if you like her or not, you just get sucked in. My sister is a HUGE Allison freak, so she was freaking out the entire time and was cracking me up. Oh, and she looked offstage in between songs and someone was holding a whip and she was like "Oh, I know who that's for, Mr Lambert, right?" and the person said yeah.





Danny was- honestly, he almost made me cry. Okay, well first he did Pretty Young Thing and it was fantastic of course, but I kept getting distracted by the fact that his shirt was unbuttoned, or buttoned wrong or something and, I dunno. But it was distracting. Then he did Maria and this little Cha Cha thing which was also good, and then he made this little speechy thing about his wife dying and how "bad things are going to happen to you but you can't let those bad things keep you down" and I legit was ready to cry. But then he took his jacket off and I forgot about crying. I'm so easily distracted. All it takes is a decent set of arms, apparently.





Adam. At this point, I called my friend so she could bask in the glory of Adam, so my notes (yes, you read that right) about what everyone was singing sort of fell to the wayside. Every Inch Of My Love was fantastic and he makes such obscene movements on the microphone and I'm not complaining at all. Mad World was absolutely amazing and so freaking good live. Then Allison came back out and they did Slow Ride and omg love them so much. I believe this was when he got the whip, but I didn't get a picture. People were freaking out the entire time he was sinigng, but he definitely deserved it, he owns the stage.












[Slow Ride:]






Kris came out and literally every person went fucking crazy. Like, it was insane. He started with his guitar and did Heartless and All These Things I've Done. Moved over to the piano and honestly, at this point I had taken the camer from my sister because she was failing and I lost track of what he was singing. Then he did the little hop off the piano bench and grab the guitar thing he does and I think it's the cutest thing ever. He finished with Hey Jude and I love that song so much, and I love him so much and it was good.






Don't Stop Believing was really good- Yes they did the little Kradam dance that they do. I got a picture of it so I think I'm pretty much set for life.












Thank you for your time :D
