I was walking around on the 2nd floor when Liz walked by. She was
headed backstage right before her set. (There's a passageway from the
2nd floor to the back of the stage.)

So, am I the only one who was super disappointed to not get the traditional Filmore poster? Does anyone know why, I was under the impression, that pretty much every show had one. I have seen literally 20's of shows there, and always got a poster. It is part of the tradition.

Thanks for posting the detailed set list.

The show was one of her best performances I've seen (out of approx. 8 in the past 2 years). She turned up the rock meter for several songs, and aside from the one Extraordinary / Mesmerizing false start as noted, she and her band played a tight set. Very surprised that she only played one song off of Somebody's Miracle; even more so since I don't consider Lazy Dreamer one of the better songs off of an album that has a few stand outs which I really would have enjoyed hearing live (specifically, Stars and Planets, Everything (Between Us), Table for One).

As for no posters, I was disappointed too. When I asked the gentleman greeting everyone as they walked into the Fillmore whether they would be giving out posters, he replied that they generally only do that when the show sells out in advance, which last night's show did not achieve. Hopefully next time!

I'm so bummed that I had to miss this show. sad.gif
