I was at that show Emmie, and because of the fun the people down in front were having, I decided to try for the best seats I could get for subsequent shows. I was about half way back in the crowd that night and I had never seen the front sections have that much fun at a concert. I was absolutely green with envy. I dont know where you were but I'd bet you were on of the one's I was envying. LOL!

Hands down, no question, this summer - I still haven't come down from the high I got that night watching Tom and the Heartbreakers. I have never had so much fun, or seen a band have that much fun playing for a crowd. I fell totally in love with them that night. I love that Tom says the Heartbreakers are having the best time of their lives right now It definitely shows and is very very contagious. I haven't had this much fun since I was a teenager . Woooooo hooooooooo.

My favorite show was my 1st. It was at the Ice Palace in Tampa, September 1999. I had been a fan for a long time but hadn't gotten the opportunity to see him live until then. I swore after that show that I would try not to ever miss another tour!! That show ROCKED! I'd give my right arm for a bootleg of it LOL.
