    Default SAP Center, San Jose, CA - 1/29/2014

    Review from a curmudgeon who can't even spell Witchy Woman and doesn't seem to like country rock. Please merge if there's already a review thread for this. I couldn't see it.

    Ugh, how very negative review, clearly he didn't pay much attention to the music, though I understand his point about the first set being a bit slow, still he should have appreciated the beauty of the "slow" numbers, also it annoys me when reviewers talk about Joe like he's the only really interesting person on stage

    Dear Jim Harrington: Didn't your mother ever tell you if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all?
    You were just too busy being FABULOUS....

    Jim Harrington's reviews are kind of hit and miss sometimes...so just take them with a grain of salt. I was at the show last night and thought it was amazing. I actually thought Joe was a little too over the top (if that's possible for Joe). He was dancing around being very animated in his glittery t-shirt. Last night was a first for me in that I sat row 2 dead center. When Don and Glenn came out I was directly in front of Don (1st row was still empty at this point) and I must say it was a little intimidating. I felt a little too exposed, maybe that's just me being weird. But I would sit there again in a heartbeat!! I went alone and sat between two 6 foot giants, they were nice, but I felt like a sandwich! The sound at SAP isn't always the best but the guys sounded great, their harmonies were spot on as always. Don in particular sounded good. Loved the red and blue plaid shirt Timothy changed into after the break, he was especially talkative last night. Glenn was in a dancing mood and Bernie seemed a little quiet, not that he says much. Little bummed today, going thru withdrawals and I don't even know why cause I'm going to tomorrow's show. I only took 3 pictures and they didn't come out that great. Tomorrow I'm sneaking in a small camera!! I did the VIP thing and got free parking, 2 drinks, tote bag, belt buckle, $ clip, cap, scarf & dinner...that was a surprise, I would have been happy with just free parking and my amazing seat!!

    Thanks, Woodstock! That's funny about Don being right in front of you - you definitely feel like you have to be acting right and doing everything the way he wants it. Hopefully someone will post a pic of TBS's plaid shirt!!! Congrats on your great seats/VIP experience last night. If the tote bags are the same ones they sell for $20, they're really nice - I wanted one but it wasn't in the budget. Have fun! Write again after tomorrow! (OMG talkative Timmy...)

    I edited the thread title to just be the concert last night.

    Woodstock, I know what you mean about being so close being somewhat intimidating. All I can say is that it gets easier with practice! Glad to hear the guys were on their 'A' game last night, again!

    Welcome from me too, Anne. I'm also glad you love the show. Can't say I blame you.
