    Does anyone recall around what time they've been taking the stage?

    I can't believe I seemed to be the only one who brought a poster tube last night. I was eating dinner and having a couple of drinks before hand and walked into the venue at 8:15. All posters were gone. I gave my tube to a random guy who had a poster. Too bad you have so arrive so early just to get a poster, but great show. Strange thing is considering the posters were numbered to 185 I barely saw any posters.

    The only other downside is beer was stopped being served before 10.

    @Leezestarr313 @Red Lukin were people seated at your shows or did they stand up? So glad the Capitol Theatre show that they added last minute for next week is all GA up front! :smiley:

    Yep the second the band hit the stage everyone was standing. I couldn't see 1 person sitting but I also couldn't see the balcony. We all stood the entire show, but why would anyone wanna sit through a rockin show?? Unless they have health issues

    It was truly an amazing show. We never even thought about sitting down. Butts were bopping all around, you were not able to resist. Unless you had no sould :smiley: I am not even familiar with Iggy's catalogue, and I could not stop moving. I also felt like the new songs were much better live than on the album. Fantastic show.
  • Wow just got back from the Boston show. Truly amazing in every aspect. Great setlist. The band was fuckin tight. They seem to be playing the same set every night but I'm telling you, I would pay crazy money to go see that same show again. Lust for Life opening might be one of the best show openers I've ever seen. Can't say enough about the band though. Out of this world.

    I knew I was gonna have that issue so I grabbed a ticket off StubHub for Philly, and then they added the Capitol show so now I'm seeing them 3x this week :smiley:

    And that's why I'm also going tonight and to port chester. Iggy is the only one in my mind that can get away with cookie cutter set/banter. He is a machine and puts everybody else to shame. I felt the blowup doll in the audience was a nuisance. "Candy" request on the back of it's head. Really? Hahaha.
    i have witnessed some performances. i have soaked up a lot of memories.

    God damn that was an amazing show. I'm kicking myself for missing Lust for Life, I got in during the third song. I wasn't kicking myself for long though, because the whole show was f'ing great.

    I've never been that into Iggy...... IMO I've always thought his on-stage mannerisms were a little goofy / silly. Last night did nothing to change this opinion, but these mannerisms are also as genuine as it gets, and he was about as charming as could be (it's rare when I refer to another guy as charming, but I feel like in this case it's appropriate) He had that crowd eating from the palm of his hand for the entire evening. What a freakin' showman. His smile also seemed about as genuine as it gets. There's no doubt he loves what he's doing.

    I love how he was walking through the audience, crowd surfing & mingling with the fans throughout. The guy is fearless, and the majority of performers half his age (& younger!) wouldn't ever think about going into the crowd like that.

    What an amazing performer.

    (Thanks Suziemay, for giving me that extra nudge!)
