Hey we now get our fix with Abbey Road, right now YSTO!

Now you know why they call it the Windy City, FV. The effects of the wind coming in off Lake Michigan.

DETAILED REPORT from the soundcheck 2-6 PM local time

She is AWESOME! Did I say she is awesome? She is awesome! LOL!
She did over 4 hours of singing today for the sound check....first half of the free gig for everyone basically..lol..she was wearing a red top with words in white on the front..and white pants..no baseball cap, but she had sunglasses and straight hair...
She did all the songs..and for each song she was commenting...she is very meticulous..(sp?)..she also waved to the crowd listening to her outside the fences..Erich and tee got cool pics..
During the second half of the soundcheck she changed her pants...they also had then about 100 people close to the stage...I think they were people invited by the Kids Cafe maybe..but Shania got two young girls on stage with her to sing IGGG for the sound check..very sweet!
BB got a haircut...the band is ready, Shania is ready, we are READY! Are you ready CHICAGO?
Already got my tickets, the stage seems to be exactly like at Hyde Park, but the ends of the two sides are more into the crowd I think...the stage is at least twice as high as the one in Hyde Park! ...and there are 3 lights/media towers in the middle of the field.....it seems there is also an enclosed area right in front of the stage..
It's going to be a real sprint..lol..but I am sure everyone will have a blast tomorrow night!
By the way...Warrior once again crossed the street like she did in Timmins when she heard Shania doing the soundcheck..lol..

Aaaaah, so she did as long a soundcheck as in Hyde Park! Glad to hear it!!! More music to the fans!!!!!
FV was in London, so she may have not fainted... but what happened to the rest who had not heard Shania live in years?

Oh no!!! BB!!! What did you do???????????


Oh dear, with this looooooong Chicago thread, I almost missed this report!!!
Thank you FV for the first report!!!!!!!!

Yeap, Fv was prepared already to the possibility of Soundcheck, after we missed it big time in London.
From now on, I think Shania can hardly do a soundcheck without fans.

So how was the meeting?

Thank you Jud for splitting the threads, as I almost missed FVs reports!! Only cause I knew there was such having been told, I knew to seach for it



Now, who would want to cut such a lovely hair?
(note to people, this next pic is from Hyde Park, London, NOT Chicago)

Maybe it's just too hot for the concerts?

The party must have been great, no one seems to be awake from Chicago.
Or, they are already camping out. HEHE

I didn't cut mine for Florida! I am shocked about this!

Just to ask, what time does the show start tonight?

Do you think we'll get a full report of the show tonight, or not until tomorrow?

I think it starts at 7.30pm local times, so I think we won't hear anything before 11pm?

Anyway, all in Chicago, after you'll get back Earth from this experience, you have to listen to the BBC2 concert!
Simple a must!!!!!
You'll find it here, click Listen Again and then Click on Shania. It's UP! there for a week from 26/7/03.
