vsteph1 0 Posted December 10, 2011 I am beyond words right now for this amazing show tonight. And I wasn't even there. I can't imagine what it was like to be in that room. When the crowd sang FIM to him and he just let them do it, I cried. God Bless John for filming this show. His video's always rock and I can't wait to see them.Can't wait for recaps.

LIwordnerd 0 Posted December 10, 2011 It was definitely Stacy because I heard her say those very words after the show, lol.This was said shortly after I finished sobbing into her shoulder after REM. Yeah. I'm never getting over this show... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chealion313 0 Posted December 10, 2011 I never use the words 'omg, this was an epic show', but I certainly used them tonight. WOW. Just wow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LIwordnerd 0 Posted December 10, 2011 Okay, I just got home and have recovered just enough to type a bit. Sweet Jesus.I just need to start by saying that my last show was November 18, 2008. Yeah. It's been over 3 years since I last saw the band live, missing an entire tour completely. I was so freakin' psyched for this show.VIP: in a word, amazing. Andrew did such an awesome job that I high-fived him after the show and he even remembered me as the girl who requested that he sing U2 while taking my pic with the band. (He went with "IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PICTUREEEEE.") I wished Dave a happy early birthday. I told him how I've been having a really shitty year but 2 things have made it less shitty: first and foremost, my nephew being born, and second, This Loud Morning. And he looked so appreciative of that comment and that was really all I've been wanting to tell him since June 28th. I gave him two hugs. My favorite hugger was Andy. He is short. So is Monty. I legit had no idea. Wow they are fun-sized.Show: I really have no words. I love how much he loves NYC and feeds so much off the crowd. I love how I'm half deaf, not just from standing next to blaring speakers, but from the crowd screeching for 90 minutes straight. I love how my throat is on fire right now from singing and screaming at the top of my lungs. I love how he threw everything he had in him into performing tonight. I love how he reached out into the crowd towards the end of REM and how just touching him released all of the pent-up emotions in me tonight. I hugged Stacy right after and just started crying and couldn't stop until after the music stopped. I didn't even see the band leave the stage. I love how he came out in his pants with the laces up the sides and looking so gorgeous that my jaw dropped. And I love how as soon as he opened his mouth to start singing, I no longer registered what he was even wearing because GOD, that voice and those lyrics make me practically forget my own name.Let's just say, walking out of Irving Plaza and back into Regular World was akin to a culture shock and I went from feeling high on life to depressed beyond belief. This show RUINED me. Completely annihilated me. And I'd do this day all over 10 times over just to have it again.No, seriously... what the eff is it about this man?

cooksgal 0 Posted December 10, 2011 What an epic way to end this tour "run". One of the goals in my life is to go to a DCTA show on NYC. Or at least a NE area. The vibe, crowd, energy is AMAZING.And can I say, ONCE AGAIN, I'm jealous of a guy, and it had to be our own RYAN STAR. THAT'S HOW YOU GRAB AN ASS!!!!

MalLuvsDC150 0 Posted December 10, 2011 OH. MY. GOD.Basically, best show ever... I'll post a longer recap tomorrow, but here are my pictures. I left the memory card for my good camera at home, so I had to use my little one, but still got some good shots http://www.flickr.com/photos/63456037@N08/sets/72157628354601597/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CookifiedTexan 0 Posted December 10, 2011 I'm still in awe. I'm alive, but barely. But Stacy and I agreed- nothing will ever top tonight. Of all the shows I've been to over the last 3 years, THIS will forever be the ultimate show in my memory. Just....wow. All of the travel bullshit I experienced, all of the problems and the angst and the worry that this trip caused...I would do it all again for a show like tonight. I'll write an official recap in a bit, after I've collected all my thoughts. Uploading tons of pictures and multiple videos right now. I have a few shots that I have to post ASAP, and then I'll gradually drop some off throughout the day tomorrow. Thank you, NYC, for being so fucking awesome, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I will be back some day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
realiTVlover 0 Posted December 10, 2011 I'm home. I'm alive. I think. I think I died and went to heaven. But once I got on the subway I was clearly not there any more lol!I am trying to compose a recap right now. Lori, your recap was awesome. I was SO glad to share that concert with you right next to me and with the other girls there in our little corner by Andy. And loved seeing you again, Mal, sorry if I hugged you a gazillion times, lol. And Carol your "recap" was very you, lol, and knowing you, it may have been short but it means a LOT. Okay, back later. If I can find words. I seriously question whether I can do so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
