    it took 2 hours to get to Noho. and on the way there we had a big discussion on why it is called north-hampton if theres only one h and why is easthampton have an h.haha two hours is a long time.so i went to the 10 o'clock show. showed up around 9 to see this building that did not look like there would be music playing. sure enough it was it and we could hear the music from outside. it was a cute town so we went and explored a little bit...by the time we got back, there was a line to go to the next show. it was 19 degrees and it was freezing! it was really small and cute with tables all around i sat right next to the stage which was good, except for the fact that there was a giant pole to the right of the stage and i could not see kit playing the keyboard at all.

    this wasnt my favorite show but it was good.
    one of my favorite parts was when they were singing In front of the world and he asked the girl to shut up.
    my least favorite part was the girls that went up to the front and started yelling for kit and wavying and being very loud.

    all together it was a great show. i recorded some stuff but youtube is being weird and it wont show me my video. i recorded lonely in columbus and it came out pretty good so as soon as i can put it one here i will.

    hmm that was really long.

    To post pictures you use the < one instead of the [ one.

    Kyle even looks to have the Boots drummer face...hmmm.

    Right there with you on the 2-hour drive and favorite and least favorite parts of the show! I must have been standing next to you, Katie, as I was standing right behind the girls waving at Kit next to the railing by the tables. The waving girls said they were best friends with Kit's fiance...who knows.

    Good show nonetheless, especially after I stood outside in the 20 degree weather too. Didn't beat seeing them in Chicago though. The Alternate Routes, who opened, are great guys too. Chatted with them after the show and have seen them in Providence and Boston. Good tunes - a good match with SK I think.

    It was also a 2 hour drive for me, but well worth it. The Iron Horse has always been one of my favorite venues. We went to both shows. For the first we had a table and dinner, then for the second we decided to brave the crowd on the floor. I was right in front of the girls that were trying to get Kit's attention. They must have been annoying a lot of people, because I heard one of the girls say someone else in the crowd told them to move!! Luckily I've become a master at ignoring such people, no matter how annoying they are. The highlight for me was for the first show they played Amazing Grace for Stephen's aunt. It took everything in me not to cry, it was beautiful.

    I went to both sets and they were some of my favorites. Good setlists, and genuine energy and contentment from the guys.

    Highlight was during Milwaukee when SK launched into "Why am I so ADD? Why am I so distractable? Why is it so hard to make myself floss..."

    The first set was taped, so that's something to look forward to.

    Lift pictures are always some of my favorites.

    Stephen did the same at Rochester during "Milwaukee"... "Why am I so OCD, just like Boots' dad? Why do I buy too many DVD's?...Why am I afraid of losing my hair? Why is Boots afraid of squirrels? I've never seen a squirrel approach a man." hahaha.

    there's more too about Kit being afraid of spiders and other stuff. Here's a link to that version of Milwaukee and it's in the other thread too, so not to take over this one! hahah.

    And thanks for the video of Lonely in Columbus, I really love that song!

    Although I admittedly posted the comment about those wavy girls saying that, I have no clue. They mentioned her name too (started with a "B" I think), but they could've told me anything, and I wouldn't know if it were true. I think SK said at one show that Kit had finally found a girl who has stuck around (maybe the Chicago show before "My Sweet Charade" when he launches into the thing about Kit's 6 wives?), but no mention of a fiance.

    I will give you Wertz's number for $2000 too. Or at least a reasonable facsimile. :lol:

    ^^ I'm interested in this too, so I'm just gonna give it a little bump to the top. If anyone knows if it was even taped I would really appreciate it.
