Ceeje I just looked at this now because I am planning on going to this show, it's near where I live. So I have started a list of things to do b/4 the 25th like GET EAR PLUGS, tickets, ect. Right now for reasons unknown to me Station 4 has an answering machine that goes BEEEEEEEp after two rings. Nice, huh? I have a disability and need to check out the venue in person b/4 the show and hope it will be good news. Anyone been to Station 4 a.k.a as 4TH St. Station if in St. Paul , any comments? I'm really jazzed about the show. My Son and his mate are going with me. We will all have our MC.ORG. wristbands on so.........

OK, I'm a terrible reviewer compared to some of the really articulate and insightful people who post at the Org.
But I wanted to say how much I enjoyed the show. It was beyond my expectations fantastic. I'll have pictures in a little while. They'll do the talking better than I could.

I went to the show with del....her first, my 2nd. Liked it even more the second time around, plus I was much more familiar with the songs. I can definitely say that Electric Gypsy and Never Enough are my favorites. The set list seemed to be mostly the same songs as the Schaumburg show, but in different order. Over the Edge was the first song and I thought it was the PERFECT song to start things off, especially the scream at the beginning. In comparison to the Schaumburg show, which seemed overly-air conditioned, this one was very hot and sweaty. Probably because this venue was a bit of a dive. ;D But, it added to the overall ambience, and I consider it a good thing, if you know what I mean ( and I think you do.) The whole front row was women but the rest of the audience was predominantly male, and specifically Tracii guitar-hero fanboys. ;D Tracii got a lot of love from the crowd, they were chanting his name at one point. Good times.

Thanks del and Chifan for your reviews! About Schaumburg show, it was very comfortable for me and I had short sleeves! I guess the music warmed me up

chifan!!! remember me at Lee's Palace!!! It was my first Marty experience and you got me high as a kite with excitement waiting for Marty to come out on stage!! It was the highlight of my year!!! I'd love to run in to you at a concert again sometime. I still have Chicago on my list.... one of these days... Of course I remember. That was one of my favorite shows ever. And you were rather unforgettable. ;D Hopefully we'll see each other at another show one of these days! I do get around.
