The night started out with what was looking like we were going to get the same set list as the night before, but Rick & Co had a few surprises in store for us. We started out the WKRR and then Will I returned (could this be a permanent return?) but check out the set list below and you will see we got some cool songs. Red House was omitted for the second night in a row and I can't say I missed it.
Rick didn't really talk much until the 4th or 5th song. He said good evening away from the mike and he commented that the place was so small he could do that. He then said he is only out here on tour because of us, the fans. Otherwise he would be home sitting there looking in the mirror, pretending he was a rock star.
Rick was very active, for lack of a better word on stage. lol He was bouncing around, doing kicks and a funky jump up, split kick move. He was also a little clumsy tonight, ok a lot. He fell quite a few times in the audience. He came out for DTTS to the girl sitting right in front of me, who it turned out was her very first show. She had been sitting then got up but he already had his eye on her. Thankfully he moved on with out picking on me. lol. Back to the stage and he brought up two 12 year old twins, boy & girl. They sang and later while Rick was in the audience Matt brought them back up and let the boy play the tambourine and the girl play the bass.
As for wardrobe, we got the old black shirt with white collar, with a new leather jacket that had some kind of rhinestone design on the back. The jeans were the same as the night before. Wonder who finally took him clothes shopping. He talked about the cruise and asked who was going. Before starting Love Somebody Rick mentioned there would be a Hard to Hold night on the cruise and he was sure it would feature his naked butt. Kinda think he was joking. Also as George was hooking him up and they were having their moment, some in the front row waived a dollar bill at him which ended up in the guitar but he said he was worth way more than that. More dollars were waived and he then asked if that was all he was worth.
Once in the crowd as I said he had a few falls but made it pretty far back. Made the cell phone call and didn't get hung up on tonight. After Human Touch he made a bee line back to the stage. Back on stage for the encore with the hot new WKRR tee shirt. The two song encore has seemed to returned. Hope it stays that way for at least one more night! And last night we didn't see the signature hug at the end of the show but tonight that too returned.
