I agree it was not her best show ever, but it was still fantastic. I
was a little disappointed that she cut some of her songs down
timewise but I guess that is what you have to do to get so much in
only 1 1/2 hours. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to get
seats up front? I have been looking on ticketmaster and other places
and I really want to go back this summer and get some front row
seats. Thanks! OH AND FOR ANYONE THAT IS INTERESTED, SHE DOES
AUTOGRAPHS BEFORE THE SHOW - YOU HAVE TO GET THERE SUPER EARLY
THOUGH.
