walking with hanson
OK, I didn't actually do the walk. I didn't even know about the walk til it was too late. I just happen to go on their website to see if I can find out who the opening acts were and saw the Toronto walk annoucement but alas, it had already started. Interesting idea though.
On to the concert. The crowd wasn't as crazy as last time so that was good. When I'm at the Phoenix, I usually stand off to the side by the door for ease of exit but I learned from the last concert, not a good position to see Taylor so I moved more to the centre, but near the back.
As usual, the boys put on a good show. Taylor stood a lot while playing which helped with the picture taking. It was so difficult to get a decent picture of Zac cause of the drums and the lighting was crappy for him but turned out I did pretty okay. Ike seemed a bit subdued. They ended their set, including the encore, with Christmas songs.
First, I just need to say that I'm loving my new camera with its 10x zoom. Pictures aren't the greatest due to the lighting. They kept using the red/purple light which is horrible for pictures. Bless Taylor for a wearing a white t-shirt which made him easier to see. Zac wearing black was not so good.
I'm loving the shaggy hair on Zac.
The next 2 pictures were taken during the acoustic part of the set. They sang "Go" which I taped only about a minute of. Listening to it back, I wish I recorded more cause the sound was pretty good.
After the encore, Taylor talked about the walks they've been doing in each city and their partnership with TOMS Shoes to send shoes to Africa. They ended the set with a quick acapella of "The Great Divide". I think it was Ike that screwed up somehow which is why all the boys are laughing.
ETA: I've uploaded my video of "Go" to Photobucket. It's only about 1 minute long. Forgive the shakiness. I kept getting bumped into and I kept trying to find Zac and missing him.
