This weekend was incredible. Blue October always puts on a great show but there was something different about this one. I was fortunate to go to both nights and while the sets were similar, the band mixed it up and pulled off yet another amazing show! I was impressed with the opening acts too. I had seen Ours before and, not so much, but this weekend was great! Switchfoot did well too! High energy, angry beats, playful melodies...this show had it all and I can't complain about anything.

Favorite moment: During "My Never" when I proposed. We found forever! @
Setlist: All of "Approaching Normal" in order of the album, plus Congratulations, Chameleon Boy, Hate Me, Italian Radio, Into the Ocean, X Amount of Words, Come in Closer, and I think one other but I can't quite remember. We got the set list from the 2nd Omaha show! @
Opening act(s): I can't remember their name, and they weren't on the ticket when I ordered it, but they were good too. @

Yet another amazing Blue October concert! I've seen them 4 times now and my fiancee has seen them about 10, including a show in Peoples in Ames years back, and they just keep getting better! We were third back from middle right stage so we got a lot of close ups from Justin and Ryan - close enough to get some sweat on us! No matter when or where you see them, they put on an incredible show and you can always tell that everything is left on the stage when they're done - nothing is held back. Their music is pure intense passion. I want them to sing at our wedding but I don't think I can afford it. Maybe I'll win the lottery....

Having listened to their live performance CD a good bit, I felt that I knew what to expect. I was not disappointed. It was an energetic, enjoyable performance with a nifty small scale light show thrown in on the stage. If you like this band I would certainly recommend you catch them live.
