I'm glad you had so much fun! The vids that I've watched have been fantastic.

I wasn't sure what to expect, (except maybe a lot of craziness, which there was an abundance of, at certain points), but seeing those three perform and interacting together was just beyond amazing. I'm really glad I made the decision to go to NY. :)

There are so many videos/mp3s I need to save now when I get back home. *so tempted to use up the hotel's free wireless connection...must resist*

Thx so much for your recap - so glad you had an awesome time! It sounds so amazing! Hope you get well soon :)

You're welcome! I really did have a fantastic time and I'm glad that everyone else can see what happened, with all of the fabulous videos floating around out there. :)

And I'm really hoping that I feel better soon too. *crossing fingers*

I'm so glad you had an awesome time. The vids that I've been watching are amazing. I just love Kradison's Crazy. Can't wait til they all tour. Let me know if you want Allison's bonus track.

Thank you again for the tickets! I can't begin to express how grateful I am for the opportunity that I had to go to this concert. *hugs*

There are so many videos I need to watch/save, now that I'm back home, and I can't wait to read through everyone's impressions of the concert.

And, if you don't mind, I would love any Allison music. I'm legitimately going to buy her album this week, so anything extra would be awesome too. :)

Thank you so much for the links! I bought Allison's album the other day and I've been listening to it, non-stop, ever since. "Don't Waste The Pretty" is my crack song of the moment. :)

Yay, I'm glad you had fun! I can't wait for all the videos to come in! I was up on the balcony for Adam and Allison's sets and didn't have a great view. Thanks to all the cray-crays leaving, I got a great view for Kris's set and it was SO AWESOME OMFG. I still can't get over it!

sundaydriver February 16 2010, 18:33:12 UTC

We thought about going up to the balcony, but then I found a great spot to the right of the stage and I planted myself there for the whole night. I am grateful for all the great videos that have come out of this night, so even if you or I didn't see everything, someone else did and put up on the Internet. *yah*

Kris was pretty damn amazing, wasn't he? *sigh* I love him so damn much and I'm really happy I got to see him live. :)

I adore Kris so much! Every time I see him live, he gets better and better, and I love the way his band is so cohesive. I ended up grabbing my camera and recording the end of the jam during Is It Over because I was grinning so hard at all the fun everyone was having up on stage. Actually, I got tons of video of Kris's set and recorded almost constantly except when my arms REALLY needed a break. I have most of it up on YouTube now:

I still need to put up Red Guitar and a few snippets of things. I'm trying to find good versions of Is It Over, Man in the Mirror, and Alright With Me on YouTube since I didn't get those and loved the arrangements. Have you seen any good ones?

I'm so glad all the Glamberts left so I could get that view!

Oh, thank you for the link. :) I'm this close to creating a separate Kradison concert bookmark link on my computer, because of all the videos out there. I haven't had a chance to really go through a lot of posts/people's LJs, but if I do find videos of those songs you are looking for, I'll comment here with the links.

The cohesiveness of Kris's band is one of my favorite things about seeing Kris live. Not that I didn't appreciate Allison's and Adam's bands, but it seems like the interaction between Kris and his band is a little more...organic? Don't know if that's the right word. They act like they've been touring forever, when it's only been a few months, and I can't wait to see how they will be in year or two. Should be amazing. :)

Woohoo! I'm so glad you had fun this weekend, here in NYC :D

sundaydriver February 16 2010, 18:34:42 UTC

I'm head over heels in love with NYC. *sigh* I legitimately cried when I had to leave the city and I'm more determined than ever to move there now.
