Thought it might be kinda fun to look back..Talking to tommy about the Eagles set list made me think of the set list that I saw Shania perform at the Toronto concert that I attended on the Up tour..I pulled it out from my drawer along with my ticket stubs...Here it goes Intro..I'm jealous Set List..Man I feel like a woman Up Honey I,m home C'est La Vie Forever and for Always I'm not in the mood to say no Don't be stupid When you kiss me Love gets me every time Whose Bed....... From this moment No one needs to know Thank you baby The woman in me That don't impress me much Whatta way to wanna be Medley..You win my love...C'mon over I'm holdin on to love I'm gonna getcha good In my car If your not in it for love ENCORE Your still the one Any man of mine Rock this country
Needless to say when does tour again she will have to do alot of these songs again...It never matters how good ones new CD might be, the demand to hear the old stuff never stops..This is the case with all big acts still today...Fans cling to the old stuff and love it...Based on an average of 25 song concert I can see maybe 5 off the new CD.....My call....She will open with the classic...Whose bed have your boots been under. Alot of the show will feature the same stuff though so if you missed it the first time...Don't fret...Bob
Yes Bob, it is wonderful to go down memory lane to this concert. It was great. I wonder if she will again play for 2 hours when she tours again. She had problems with her voice near the end there. I too hope she will play a lot of the old stuff. Your right the fans demand it. Thanx for posting.
Hey lulu..As you know my position has always been that the big difference this time will be the tour..It is one thing to put out a great CD..Something totally different to tour it..You know we are safe in Canada but with the exception of the US my call is...that is it.. I think you gotta look at who is out there today doing world tours..."Up" style world tours...REALLY...REAL QUICK....Not many...Sorry folks outside of North America..I just don't see it...My call still stands at somewhere in the area of 5-10 major canadian cities....Maybe 20 in the US over 2-3 months...THATS IT....Bob
Bob,i couldn't agree more,you are right. i have the same feeing about shania's next tour,it ii will be smaller, and who knows, maybe that will make it even better.
on the last concert of the UP tour, shania's sis said that the next tour will be smaller,and that it won't be another tour like UP. shania was tired afterwards,and it is totally normal,that tour was overwhelming,and even caused shania a back problem.
and i know that now that Eja is older, shania would hate to be far from him,but he's got to be in school,so she won't be on the road for many months(imo). this is another reason why i will visit the Sates or Canada,i have to see shania in concert,i already regret that i missed the UP tour.
this time i will catch her,with a little help from my friends (you guys)who will get the tickets for me,of course i will pay for those when i come there,don't you worry.

Hey Lulu...Actually the concert that I referred to was in the area 2.5 hours but it was in the early part of the tour..It was somewhat shortened in the late stages..I think she realizes it was way to demanding and way too agressive and I really don't think she will make the same mistake again...As I said we are covered in Canada no doubt, but alot of our US friends will have a little further drive maybe this time. Mid size cities..(.Cleveland ,Buffalo)....Don't think so...What I think you will see is large centres(chicago,Newyork) running 3 or 4 shows...Less travel for her but still good gate sales to cover the tour costs...It does mean maybe a long drive from say..Detroit for example though. If she can get the big sales out of 20 US locations and force her fans to travel to her then I think she will do it...Kind of like my Eagles...4 shows in Atlanta..Take a rest..and then move on for another four shows in another venue...Makes sense to me and I think it will to her...Bob
I remember the set list for Hyde Park been very similar to the Chicago special that came out on DVD.When I saw her later on in the tour I think she had dropped some songs and her voice was more strained for sure. I just think she needed to spread the tour out longer and take more time of between gigs. I do think we'll see less shows on the next tour as she needs to take care of her voice and body.
Hey Timmins lover...Hope you don't feel put down by my no britian/europe comment...I just think once she puts even one foot in the door(say London) ,then how can she ignore the other close by nations without offending them..The expression that the world is getting to be a smaller place is true but it is still dam big and I think overpowering for her at this stage. NOW...Country gal...You sure know how to ruin a hot date..Don't tell me you are one of those free spirited type gals that pay for your own meal on a date.. NO WAY...The tickets are on me...Thats how us canadian guys do things...OK...You can pay for the pepsi during the show...After the first 10 songs we will likely need it. NOW...Little Lulu... You better be in on this..You have been talking about it ALONG time... I figure I can count on Joe and Chris for sure BESIDES..No way they will leave me with these two..(a greek girl and a nurse) YIKES .Timmins Lover..FOR SURE. I will work on Angie..She will work on Tommy OK....I can already hear the howling BUT...TORONTO is the central spot...I can hear it already...SURE BOB...2 hour car drive for you...WELL...That is true...BUT... It is the most central for Lulu coming from west coast(5 hours) and Country gal from east(8 hours)...Not too bad for Tommy from the south(3 hours),Timmins lover from England(6 hours),2nd and Chris from(Penn and Ohio)(2 hours)...OH...That is flying of course.. OTHER BENEFITS...Closest to Deerhurst and Timmins...Great concert facility ..AND it is always a homecoming for her...Friends/relatives etc... The other option...Hamilton...About one hour....By the way..Something about copps collisium in Hamilton..IT IS A NUTHOUSE...and they are Shania FREAKS. ANYHOW... I actually think this will work...The tour will be over the fall/winter so air fair would be low as well as hotels....Hey like they say...You can't take it with you...Bob
Bob,of course i'm paying for my own meal,you know some guys if they pay for you then expect something in return, and i ain't digging it. and this is not a meal we're talking about,this is concert tickets,they could cost $90,that's a lot of money. Bob,what if the other guys leave you with a greek girl?? you don't like my company? oh now you 've hurt my feelings.
ok,i like Toronto it is a great city,BUT we have to go to more than one concert. Hey what's up whith Copps Colliseum??

First of all...I am a perfect gentleman..Secondly I said YIKES to both you and Lulu, and last..Hamilton for a fairly large city are country nuts and Shania Freaks..Maybe that is why Shania practiced there for a week before the Up tour started as well as opened the tour there...It would not surprise me if she did again...Opening night...2009...Sounds pretty cool to me...Bob
i know that you are a gentleman Bob,but just in case is your wife coming with us or not?
OK,Lulu and me together with you,what is the problem?? so ,sounds like Hamilton is the perfect place for me to go huh? oh man,i can't wait,you got me so excited,we're going to rock the whole arena

YES you silly...Cindy is coming...Jim too...OK..Copps sounds perfecto to me...It is a slightly smaller venue which is really nice...It is in the hear of the city...COOL
Hey Christina...I am kind of thinking that George might be a NO...He didn't respond..I will leave him up to you...SO LETS REVIEW I am in You are in Lulu..My call is yes. Hubby never says no to little Lulu Chris...My call in yes with the CD blasting all the way from Ohio 2nd..Yes..As long as the flyers are not playing that night Angie..Too tough to call..But if Detroit is a NO SHOW then yes Tommy...Angie and Tommy at a shania concert...Oh ya BABY George..Has me worried unless there is a stopover in England from Greece..If so..Yes
NOW...As I have said before...I finish at Deerhurst...No north track to Timmins in winter for me...2nd can haul you guys up there..Mind you..There will likely be several stops along the way at his favourite ice fishing spots...Hey Country Gal...Ever eaten whitefish with fries...Mmmm...But don't forget the vinegar...Right Lulu..Right George..You folks that don't get this...Quit laughing...Fish and chips without vinegar...FORGET IT...It is a institution eh??? Now Country gal.. You will need long johns..If you don't know what that is..Private me...You will need ear muffs...mitts not gloves..mitts...insulated bra,kodiaks,snowmobile pants, a roots sweatshirt,a flask of rye...Thats pretty much it...TRUST ME...With that look going, every guy in Timmins will love you..If you think I am joking...Ask 2nd By the way..If you do think I am joking...Let me put it this way...Those large walk in freezers run at minus 18 F with no windchill factor...Now double that and add 40mph winds..You have NO idea how much it hurts......Anyhow...As I said...I am NO...Will stay an extra night at deerhurst beside a warm fire and glass of red....Bob
Timmins Lover Update...After this long hot and heavy overseas fling I think it is safe to make George as a YES for the concert....YA RIGHT...I bet you will let Georgy Boy buy you supper
you're too funny my friend Bob, now long johns must be something like ...underwear?? i dunno for sure,and i'm thinking that i have no idea where to buy that kind of clothes,maybe in a store that has ski gear?? ok i'm in 100%but i'm afraid i might catch a cold,i'm not used to this kind of weather. but i will come trust me.

Lol to all the postings. I think it would be a riot to be at a concert together. It sounds like Hamilton or Toronto might be it. I think Jim and I would seriously consider this. It will be great to see Shania live with all of you there. I would really like that.
Yeah, gez, there has been so much going on here, hard to keep up, lol.
I wonder if Shania will continue opening all her shows with MIFLAW? Will she ever change that? I think Shania will have a huge tour again. She's been a way so long, I think she'll come back with a bang! She will tour many places in Canada and US, tour Europe, and maybe Japan and Australia. She will be more careful this time and space out the legs of the tour so she can stay healthy. One thing for sure, she pushed herself hard last time and tried to make it a solid effort, COO tour part 2, but as healthy as she lives, it's not easy to go that full throttle at 38 and especially now coming on 43!
Yes Joe,we went crazy last night,but it was fun indeed.
SO,Joe are you coming with us in Hamilton?? it would be a blast,we will be the craziest gang of the arena.
as form MIFLAW i think she will keep it, because she once said that this is her favourite song to do live,as long as she keeps AMOM and Boots it will be fine by me.

I reckon I'd be able to make Hamilton, hehe. I've passed by before, but this time it will be a first I need my passport. Boo on that.
I know Shania will keep MIFLAW, I just am curious if she will ALWAYS start her shows off with that? She's been doing so since 1998, lol. Yes, AMOM and Boots are a must, two of the most popular concert songs and they are rocking country, love the fiddles.
ok,Joe is coming toocan you guys imagine what it's going to happen?? we gonna rock the place. btw i think i will start the procedure for my passport this year,just in case.
boy,i'm going to need many batteries for my digital camera

Hello country gal and all. Yes, I think it would be a wonderful time if we all made it to Hamilton together for a Shania concert. It would be the best time.
