I went to the Reba / Kelly Clarkson concert Thursday night with my sister-in-law Diana and some friends. Had a wonderful time!
EXCELLENT CONCERT! I've enjoyed Reba's music over the years, but never been a huge fan. I do however love her TV show. What a surprise when the opening act ended up being Melissa Peterman - the stand-up comedian who played Barbara Jean on the REBA show. Oh my gosh, she was so funny!
I think some people thought that Kelly Clarkson would open the show; but instead it was Reba and Kelly on stage the whole 1 3/4 hours.
I only knew a few of Kelly's songs (I don't watch American Idol); but was impressed with her vocal talent. I wasn't too impressed with her overlong jeans - and I mean 12 inches or more overlong; but that didn't hamper her moving around the stage. I saw in the Eagle's review the next day that she was also barefoot. Ouch! I think my favorite songs were "Because of You" the duet they recorded for Reba's Duets CD; Kelly's "Beautiful Disaster"; and Reba's "Does He Love You". There were no special effects, just lots of music. Reba looked great, and still puts on a great show.
We weren't as close as I thought we were going to be. The seats ended up being about 14 rows up, but they were just to the left side of the stage. The big screen came in handy to see the close ups. As you can tell, I don't have a super-dooper zoom lens on my camera.
They came back and did an encore that had the crowd pumped. WOO HOO!
I enjoyed the concert so much that I picked up Kelly's CDs @ Target today. I'm listening to the Breakaway CD right now. The My December CD is next. Then it will be Reba's #1's! Time to party!
