Well, We Thougth we were going to hear our favorite Gretchen Wilson songs; but, 40% of what we DID hear was, BOSTON; FOREINGER; JOE WALSH; ZEPPLIN; etc. etc. We already saw most of those bands live, so we bought GRETCHEN WILSON tickets to hear HER song! Instead, we hear too many covers. On the way home, we listened to about 5 or 6 excellent Gretchen songs (Come to Bed, 1 of the Boys, etc.) that she COULD have done live, but instead she fell in love with Mick Jones. She did good covers of those songs, but so did my High School rock band. So, we felt cheated and robbed of what could have been a Great Gretchen Wilson show. Also, by only playing for just over 1 hour, she and her band came across as rather lazy. She should have charged a little more for her tickets and took an intermission half way thru show, and played until 10:00 PM. Another screw up was WHY THE HELL DOESN'T SHE THROW AN OPENING ACT UP ON STAGE!! THE CROWD WOULD BE MORE INTO HER SHOW, AND SHE WOULDN'T HAVE TO END HER SHOW ONLY 1/2 HOUR AFTER SUNSET. AT THE Tioga Downs show, the total time her brother was selling her T shirts was 3 or 4 times as long as her concert was.

Favorite moment: During "Still Rolling" @
Setlist: = Songs from 25 70's & 80's Rock Bands OTHER THAN Gretchen Wilson. @
Opening act(s): SADLY, THERE WAS NONE. SO, GRETCHEN PLAYED MOST OF HER SHOW BEFORE SUNDOWN, LEAVING THE AUDIENCE ALL DRESSED UP EARLY IN THE EVENING WITH NO PLACE TO GO. SO, THE OPENING ACT WAS: "GRETCHEN WILSON" @
