The show last night in Meridian, Mississippi, was in a beautifully renovated theater which held around 950. There wasn't a bad seat in the house. I thought by the crowd (mostly older, very rich-looking), that they would be very proper and just clap politely after each song, but let me tell you, there was some whooping and hollering going on during the show!
Trisha treated the crowd to two songs from the new CD: Heaven, Heartache and the Power of Love and Cowboys Are My Weakness. Both were outstanding, but I was very surprised by the second one as it isn't like what she usually sings. It might have been my favorite of the night. She looked awesome and sounded great! Wish everyone could have a chance to see her live! rolleyes.gif

I totally agree about "Cowboys Are My Weakness"! I loved it when I heard it. Something about the way she sings it. The phrasing...I don't know what it is, but I loved it and am totally looking forward to hearing it again at my upcoming concerts.

It's not fair that I have to wait til November to hear "Cowboys are my Weakness!" From what everyone here who has heard it live says, sounds like they like it even better than HHPOL, which is awesome itself, so I can't wait. Guess I just have to be patient for two more months to hear that song and the rest of the cd. LOL!! laugh.gif

It's another fantastic Karyn Rochelle song! biggrin.gif So different from Georgia Rain, huh? She's so talented. biggrin.gif

Bass Hall said yes, and fans should say thank you

By ERIN WHITE
Star-Telegram Staff Writer

FORT WORTH -- Trisha Yearwood got to play Bass Hall because, well, she begged.

"Not to drop names or anything, but I came here with my husband," the singer, who is married to music superstar Garth Brooks, told the crowd. "I just loved the place, so I called and called and said, 'Can I play here? '"

Any fan in the audience Monday night was certainly pleased that Bass Hall brass said yes. The singer was in top form and demonstrated why she's had 15 years of chart toppers.

Yearwood moved easily through a mix of singles from her forthcoming album, scheduled for release in November, and radio-tested fan favorites like Thinkin' About You, The Song Remembers When and, of course, She's in Love with the Boy.

She charmed the audience, too, with anecdotes about life in Nashville and by poking fun at herself.

"I was really proud of my new jeans until one of the crew members said, 'I know you said your kids just started doing the laundry. Was there a bleaching accident?'" she said, making a face while the crowd laughed.

Although she kept the fans entertained between songs, her outstanding voice made the show great.

Yearwood, long respected as an interpretive singer, can imbue a lyric with an extraordinary amount of emotion. On a new single, Cowboys Are My Weakness, her voice flirted with the audience and hinted at both an apology for and an acceptance of an understandable Achilles' heel.

During Wrong Side of Memphis and Pistol, rousing, heck-raising tunes, she made her voice rough and hard, with just a touch of vulnerability.

She was at her best when she sang about heartache. During Walkaway Joe and Georgia Rain, Yearwood wrapped her voice around longing and regret so elegantly and effortlessly that a listener could almost forgive all the country starlets who've mistakenly thought they could handle singing one of Yearwood's songs.

Almost.

The show last night in Ft. Worth was beyond awesome! The best Trisha concert I've ever been to. Of course sitting 5th and center didn't hurt anything either! I thought I missed my M&G opportunity but when I picked up my tickets at will call they gave me my pass to keep. A few minutes later I looked at it and it was for AFTER the show. I couldn't believe it. Although, later on someone from the concert hall said that was a mistake everyone was supposed to go before the show. So I don't know what was going on. We were able to go on her bus afterwards and talk with her a bit. We thought it was going to be a rush deal because she had to catch a plane but that wasn't the case at all. She told us not to worry that the plane wouldn't leave without her. Meeting her was everything I thought it would be. I felt like I was talking to someone I'd known for years. She's so very sweet and beautiful. Looked great. Definitely a class act.

How awesome!!! Congrats onteh meet and greet! I'm SO jealous~you got to go on her bus!!! tongue.gif

Trisha Yearwood winsome as ever at Bass Hall

By MARIO TARRADELL / Music Critic


FORT WORTH – Trisha Yearwood's songs are like old friends that moved out of state. Years later you revisit them, and it's as if they never left. The reconnection is instant; the time apart ceased to exist.So when the Georgia-born, soulful country singer walked onto the Bass Performance Hall stage Monday night and sang "That's What I Like About You" for 1,500 fans, the memories all came rushing back. She tours only sporadically these days, and her radio hits are fewer and farther between. But nothing's really changed artistically.

Trisha Yearwood laughs with the crowd between songs during Monday night's show at Bass Performance Hall in Fort Worth. She remains the thoughtful interpreter, breathing life into tunes packed with storytelling lyrics that cut right to the heart. She can converse with a crowd, frequently joking about picking songs that aren't the happy, peppy fare usually heard on mainstream country radio. Most important she can enthrall with her pipes, an instrument that dips and soars, emotes and vamps with the most effortless ease.

For about 80 minutes, preceded by opening act Amy Dalley, Ms. Yearwood traveled through familiar terrain, stopping twice to deliver new material, the bluesy, gospel-soaked new single, "Heaven, Heartache and the Power of Love," and the saloon-styled sly number "Cowboys Are My Weakness."

Backed by a five-member band, she offered smart heartland pop during "XXX's and OOO's (An American Girl)," "Believe Me Baby (I Lied)" and "Wrong Side of Memphis," which turned darker, more brooding in concert than on the CD.

"Pistol," an album cut from 2005's Jasper County written by Texan Leslie Satcher, was a charged-up honky-tonk blast. The innocuous "Perfect Love," which she called "up-tempo, positive and sweet" was just that. She needn't have wasted her time on the syrupy ballad "How Do I Live," but it was a rare misstep during an otherwise great show.

Yet all of the aforementioned numbers pale next to "The Song Remembers When" and "Georgia Rain." Years from now when we're examining the artistic merits of Trisha Yearwood, those two tunes will be benchmarks. They are tales of real people dealing with real emotions they thought were bottled up inside.

As she sang, you could visualize the woman at the checkout counter hearing the familiar melody that transports her to happier times, then makes her examine why love went awry. Later, you could see the rural girl who returns to her hometown only to realize that the past can't be relived.

We can all relate to those scenarios. That's the power of country music.

Gotta say, both are great reviews. LOVE the last line in the first one. However, I have to take issue with what the second one wrote about "How Do I Live." ohmy.gif I guess to each his own, but that is still one of her signature and most requested hits - the one that garnered her a grammy and the female vocalist awards she received. I mean I still get chills when I see a clip of that awesome CMA night when she sang that song and was named female vocalist right afterwards. And to hear it in person at a show, is unbelievable. I know I got teary-eyed during it the first time I finally saw Trisha live a few years ago. Anyway, Trisha knows the fans love that one and that is why she dedicates it to the fans at each show she does.

Hey everyone~
I am so excited I get to go to the Mesa show on Sept 28th. I had to pass it up last year becuase it was on a week day and I could not get off of work, but this year it landed on a Friday. I am so excited I can hardly be patient enough. It sounds like her concerts are such fun and I have never had the chance to go until now. I used to live about an hour from Cheyenne Wyoming and I found out about Frontier Days before Mesa...I was so bummed out, but then my prayer was answered when I saw she was gonna be in Mesa. I hope everyone has a great time at their shows smile.gif

He doesn't know what he's talking about. Clearly he was the only one who felt that away about the song. It was one of the highlights for me and the crowd went crazy when she was introducing it. On a side note...I can't stand to hear Leann Rimes sing this song. Like nails on a chalkboard. Trisha blows her away on so many levels. biggrin.gif

Last night was the Park City, Utah show! And it was AWESOME!!! I LOVED it! I havent seen her live for 2 years! And i missed it! I went with my mom and my sister and we had so fun! I went back and got to visit with her after a little scare from the people who work there who said they thought the meet and greets were cancelled or going to be held after the show! She was so nice like always and i got to meet Gwen! She is so down to earth!! I had alot of fun joking with everyone backstage! And then the show! IT WAS SO GOOD!! I love her live act! I was a little shocked the begining of Memphis is was really mellow at the begining and im use to it being LOUD! smile.gif I loved the new ones Heaven, heart ach and the power of love ( my daughters FAVORTIE song) was so fun!! And the Cowboy song i think is going to be my bew antham!! smile.gif i cant wait for the CD now! she did on a bus to st cloud as an encore and i just love to hear her sing that song!
I thought this was really funny.. But Park City's elevation is very HIGH! Its like ski city USA!! LOL and there was actually oxygen on the side of the stage just in case.. Trisha joked about that saying she didnt think it was an age thing! laugh.gif
I have NO idea how to post pics! so if someone does let me now! I didnt get a lot but i have a couple from the show!
Oh and since the last time i saw her live. WALKAWAY JOE has taken on a new meaning personally for me and it was just cool to have my mom there with me during that song!!
