Green Valley Ranch

Fortunately we were in Henderson, so I guess we'll spill the beans.
There was a new opening to the show - a screen came down and then a montage of footage was shown starting very early in Rick's career up through now (well, up through SDAA and his return to General Hospital, not sure if there was anything even more recent than that).
The set list was nicely mixed up from the night before. This was a pretty small venue and many of the people had been the night before, so it was perfect for that situation. After IDEFY, there was a request for Souls and Rick's response was "you guys suck, that's a lot of pressure you're putting on me, these guys don't know it". Then he said "maybe we'll give it a shot". After Kristina he told this story - He said about an hour after they checked in, and when they went to get him to bring him down for sound check there was no security guards, just employees from the venue. They told him they couldn't spare any security guys because there was a fight at the topless pool. He said he and wife looked at each and went "our kids are here". He said "Both my boys Liam and Josh are here. They're the two really handsome dudes strutting around the pool. You may have seen them". Josh was actually sitting on stage and Rick looked back there when he said it and Josh was just kind of shaking his head rolling his eyes. Then he said they were walking down to sound check and there was his oldest son Liam, and he said "hey, we just got in a fight." Rick then says "part of me went 'damn' and the other part went 'YES'! (as he pumped his fist in the air)". During DTTS, Rick sang "how's life in the big sin city.....every man's a gambler, every girls a hooker". George brought out his extra microphone and Rick said "they sing pretty good, I think we know they sing pretty good. We're going to skip the sing-a-long bit, I think you're done with that, aren't you?" Then he said "alright, maybe just one Georgie". So he got George to throw him back the mic. After he was done with DTTS, he asked how many had been there last night (a bunch cheered) and then said "so you don't want to hear The Medley again, right? You've already heard it". So they went into Souls. He mentioned that they had seen Love the night before and then went into "Get Back". In the Middle of Gloria Rodger sang a bit of "Nowhere Man".
