Hi everyone, I thought it might be nice to have a thread for everyone to post their concert reviews in again like we've done in the past. It's such fun hearing about all the shows and everyone's experiences and see their photos.

Anyone attending, please post your review. Its exciting that Michael and his band are hitting the road again and traveling the world!

I hope you all don't mind I started this thread for concert reviews. I'm looking forward to reading about everyone's experiences!

Thanks!!!

Robin :)

P.S. Update-Nov, 2010-I wish them well and cannot wait to see the show again in 2011!!! MB totally rocked it at NJ PAC 11/3/2010!!! Thanks Michael!!!!!

Hi everyone, just a couple of quick things about the concert last night in ATL. He was awesome, of course. Didn't need to say that did I? LOL. Ferst Center was a very nice venue. Very small, front row was just a little further than arm's length from the stage. I went with Karen and met up with Kerie, I will let them tell their stories :) Set list was very much the same as Anna listed for Branson except for the encore he did an extended version of Rock Me, then Go the Distance, then of course...Georgia!! The crowd was very lively, a couple of ladies in the front row were holding up signs with "10" on them and he kept joking about it, seemed to get a real kick out of it. After the show I went out scouting to see where he might be leaving from and spotted the likely spot. We waited a few minutes and saw his bodyguard come out to an SUV so we knew we were in the right place. A few minutes later security came up and told us Michael's security had called them and told them to clear everyone out of the area. There were only 5 of us and we told security we weren't a threat, apparently they believed us because they left a few minutes later. The man himself came out just a few minutes after that and he went to his SUV, his bodyguard said we could come up one at a time. For my few seconds with THE MAN I apologized for not being able to speak up (throat biopsy) and he said "Oh my gosh, don't strain your voice", advice that I ignored ( I'm not a singer, believe me, so what does it really matter?), I told him thank you for the wonderful concert, and congrats on his grand daughter. He said "thank you very much, she is beautiful." Wonderful evening, Karen and I had many laughs!!! After 20+ years Michael never disappoints. I only wish I had taken the photo from backstage at Biloxi for an autograph....oh well, there's always next time!!

Hi Lynn.....I sure hope that Michael was the dose of medicine that could help your throat!! ;) Thanks for posting your review and most definitely take your photo next time you see him!!! I am so glad that you "informed" security that you were simply the most dedicated fans waiting for Michael!!! We all must "teach" security about us...LOL So happy you had a great time and please do get well :)

No doubt he sang Georgia in Atlanta. I know only too well attending concerts alone.
