I have to admit, the last few times I've gone to see Melissa (I've seen her every tour since 1999), I've come away a little disappointed. So much so that I almost didn't go to see her this tour. But at the last minute, I decided to go and boy am I glad. I managed to get 8th row off to the side (sometimes going by yourself has its perks), which was just close enough to be able to see her facial (and eye) expressions really well. I definitely feel like it's a whole different experience if you can get within the first dozen rows or so.
Melissa was amazing. She's started playing a lot of lead guitar, which is definitely a treat. In fact, she played everything buy bass at some point. And her voice was in great form (it usually is). Her backing band is great and the guys do an amazing job of letting her shine while still adding their own flair to things. They played 19 songs (by my count) over 2 1/2 hours.
She played primarily from the new album, of course, but had room for a lot of classics including Brave and Crazy, Chrome Plated Heart, You Can Sleep While I Drive, and of course Come to My Window, I Want to Come Over, I'm the Only One, Bring Me Some Water, and Like the Way I do. One of the great things about her is that she puts a different flair on songs each time she plays them. It makes it worth going to see her in concert, because it's so much better than what is on the album.
Overall, it was definitely the best concert of hers that I've seen in the last few years and maybe even ever. It was worth every penny (and let's face it, tickets to her shows are not cheap).

This is my 3rd time seeing Melissa in concert. She did not disappoint. She was AMAZING. She is a truly gifted artist. Her music, lyrics and talented instrument playing have had such an impact on me. Her show lifts the audience up and the emotion is simply palpable.

Melissa came out with a rocker scream (literally) to get the show started and she never let up the entire show. What I was most impressed with was her growth as a musician since we last saw her. She has expanded her signature sound to include some really neat genres of music. It all blended well and her band has improved 100% since I saw her at the Hyannis Melody Tent a couple of years ago. If you have a chance to see her on this tour, do it. You won't be sorry.

I liked her better on her alone tour. She rocks accoustically. It seemed like a more personal concert, of course having it in a small venue was awesome, too. As always she puts on a great concert!

Melissa Etheridge was in fine voice, and she played guitar joyously in her November 10 concert at the Chicago Theatre.
The show included many tracks from her new album, "4th Street Feeling" and a goodly number of her many hits. The band was wonderful, backing Melissa expertly and filling the room without ever overpowering the star.
Melissa sang with more passion and with more facility than I have heard in her previous Chicago engagements; it's a pleasure to hear an artist with a long résumé continue to grow, rather than resting on her laurels and becoming a "jukebox of oldies." Ms. Etheridge has also continued to grow as an instrumentalist, playing solid lead guitar and harmonica, in addition to her masterful lead vocals.
Melissa's banter with the audience was warm and relaxed, and brought much context and meaning to the songs she shared. I felt welcomed and involved in this event, and look forward to my next opportunity to hear this important artist.
Ms. Etheridge's crew and Chicago Theatre's staff did a wonderful job providing clean, clear amplification. Both spoken word and song lyrics were easily understood, which has not always been the case in recent performances by this artist at this venue.
Overall, this concert was a big winner :)

We appreciate that Melissa starts on time, does not have an opening act, and does not break for intermission. We paid to see HER and that's exactly what we got! We thoroughly enjoyed her performance and the only thing better would be to hear more of her older songs.

Have seen Melissa on several tours, and this one rates right up there with one of the all time best.
Loved the new music LIVE. I really didn't care too much for the new album, but have gained a new appreciation for it, after hearing it live.....maybe she should have recorded it live..??
Looking forward to the Summer leg of the tour, as I will see her again.

The show was great, 100% Melissa, a mix of her older songs + the one's from the new album. I was right at the stage and seeing her rocking that stage from such a small distance was terrific.

We couldn't believe the energy she had. Melissa was AWESOMEEEEE. The show started @ 8:05 and ended @ 11:00. She came out for an encore that lasted another 1/2 hour. She was non-stop singing and then she played individual instruments. We saw her 16yrs ago and she has much energy if not more than she had 16yrs ago.

Right off the start, the energy from Melissa is just amazing! Her voice is as strong as ever, and her musical performance is simply mesmerizing. I saw her the first time during her Brave and Crazy tour - this one was just as entertaining. Her candid conversations with the audience had everyone in the palm of her hand. Such a wonderful evening!

This was a great concert at a fabulous venue. As expected, Melissa mainly performed songs from her new album, "4th Street Feeling", with a few of her old hits scattered into the mix. I've been going to her concerts for years and am amazed at her evolution as a performing artist. She is like a fine wine that just grows better with age. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves great music.
