    I bought tickets today to Seger's concert in Pittsburgh the end of Jan. I've been searching and searching for good tickets at a place that would be easy to get to, and decided that it's a Thursday show, so I can just come up for another long weekend and spend time with the family again. So, I think it's about row 8, center section on the floor. My sister will go with me, I think.

    The one downside to the concert was we didn't go to Katmandu. Not sure why not, they had the drums set up for it.

    He played four of his new songs, and the one the crowd got into the most was Gypsy, the one where he said he was trying for a song that Stevie Ray Vaughn would like.

    Hollywood Nights and Night Moves were sung faster than the recorded versions, so when the crowd tried to sing along, it took a while to realize it, and most just stopped singing. Everyone still danced though!

    Turn The Page was probably the song the crowd got into the most. Everyone definitely sang along.

    I was 8 rows from the stage, dead center. You'd think that would be a great seat, but there were tall people in front of me! We only sat down for maybe two songs.

    My sister definitely liked the show, and the comment she made several times was that he seemed to be a very happy guy. I told her I thought he was a pretty happy guy overall.

    Another observation is that during the encores, you usually see quite a few people spilling towards the exits to beat the herd on the way out. Not last night.

    It was interesting, he played Travelin' Man, and it's one of the few songs I remember him playing back when I saw him the first time in the late 70's.

    J. Geils was warm-up act and definitely warmed the crowd up. Most people were in their seats by the second song, so people definitely wanted to see them. They didn't play Freeze Frame, but played their other hits. There were quite a few around us that bought tickets to see them and the one lady didn't know much about Seger. She did by the end of the night!

    I guess there was another downside to the evening....my Captain and Coke (double) cost $19.50 + tip. At least it came in a Penguins cup, which I kept!

    My sister said she could tell I go to a lot of concerts. While others wore heavy, bulky coats and put them on the backs of chairs and tried to keep them from falling to the floor, I brought my Eagles tote bags lined with plastic and we wore layers and put them in the bags as we got down to blouses.

    All in all it was a great concert. Very energetic and fun. Definitely worth the 7.5 hour drive.

    I liked J Geils Band too!

    My fav of their set was Centerfold of course....I love that intro and the singalong energy. But as far as overall songs of theirs, I prefer Must Of Got Lost. I love Peter Wolf's intro to that song.

    For Centerfold, he didn't really sing it all. He skipped over words, it seemed. Must Have Got Lost was probably the song they did the best job on.
