Who: Sheryl Crow

Where: Orpheum Theatre, Sioux City, IA

When: Sept 16, 2002, 8pm.



A few show notes:




To Michelle [Branch, opening act]: All your songs sounded the same. You have a great voice, some variety would be nice though.



To Sheryl: In the Orpheum in Sioux City, if you stand at the front edge of the stage, those of us in the nosebleed section can't see you. Just in case you ever come back... Also, were all 6 of those busses YOURS? You were awesome, thanks for a great show.



To the people seated behind us for part of the show: You are fucking idiots. While I found the details of your personal lives simply FASCINATING, as I am sure everyone else within earshot did, I did not pay $50 to sit and listen to your loud, pathetic, ignorant whining. I know, you'd had too many Miller Lights and probably weren't raised any better, but here's a free clue to learn, know and live: YOU DON'T TALK LOUDLY DURING THE SONGS AT A CONCERT. It's just not cool to try to out-yell the PA system, which you nearly managed to do. I heard some of what you said to me after I asked you to be quiet, and I was hoping that you'd take a swing so I could have thrown your stupid Iowa cornfed inbred ass down the stairs, but alas. Oh yes, and one more thing: you couldn't find the BEAT in a song if it was delivered with a baseball bat, so if some other poor sods should have the misfortune to have to sit near you at another concert, please DO NOT CLAP. You were so far away from the beat that you weren't even in the SAME STATE. Thank GOD you left early, you BOTARDS.



To the parents who brought their young children: When did rock concerts become kid-friendly and parent approved? Kinda takes some of the fun out of it if it's appropriate for a 7 year old to attend...



To the people who didn't stay for the encore: Heh. Suckers. You missed a rockin Zeppelin cover and Ms. Crow wiggling her ass barefoot on a baby grand piano. Guess you had to get your little kids home since it was darn late on a school night. Get a babysitter next time, seriously.



To McDonald's and Burger King in the area: You really should be open at 11:22pm on a Monday night. People gotta eat. God Bless Subway.



Good night! :)
