This is the same review that is on the site by me, nothin new
Ok...Wow again, this band is truely one of my favorite bands of all time, and I haven't even known about them for over 4 months now! That has to tell all you people something. They are just amazing, Amy's voice sounds beautiful, while Ben and John's guitar licks echo in the air, Will's deep tone and jumping around, and Rocky's beat just merge together to form one of the most distinctive and hard rockin' sounds I have heard in my life. Again this Show review gets big stars from me for another great job by Evanescence on stage!
Alright, to start things off we drove down to Music Midtown in Atlanta from Nashville. For you peeps who aren't familar with MM(Music Midtown) it is a 3 day event where many many bands play on 6 different stages in this large area in Atlanta. Now we arrive in Atlanta on Friday night, and decide to leave right when we get in to go see Sheryl Crow, American Hi-Fi, Live, and Unwritten Law. So we get on Marta (the subway in Atlanta) and get to MM. Now we are about to walk in the gates when it starts to poor down rain and thunder and lighting starts rumbling the city. The cops on the streets told everyone the show was canceled for the night and to go home. So it takes us about 4 hours to get home because there is over 600,000 drunk/high/wet/puking people trying to get on Marta and get home. We finally get home and just get room service and are happy that this didn't happen when Eva was suppose to play.
The next morning my dad reads the paper and finds out that the show wasn't canceled, but only delayed an hour, and the cops were telling people it was canceled so they could go home. Unwritten Law and everyone that we wanted to see got back on stage a performed until midnight. Besides the fact that we were pissed we went to the Saturday show. This was the day Eva was playing. Now, before we went to the show we bought a shirt and fabric markers and I decided to make a shirt for Amy. The shirt was in black and bright green and that said "Marry Mee Amy Lee"(Where I get my User Name Hint Hint) on it. Then we got on Marta again, and again it started to rain. This wasn't looking to good, I was gettin mad with all the rain! We arrive at MM just in time to see Die Trying finish their set on the same stage that Eva was gonna play on next. At this time there was probley bout 1,000 people there watching Die Trying. While they are switching sets more people start to flock in as the rain begins to stop. So I run to the stage, and get about 2 rows of people back from the stage, and I was very satisfied with where I was. The rain was completely stopped now, and the clouds began to dissapate as the local radio DJs introduce Evanescence. By this time the people doubled to about 2,000.
As soon as Eva hits the stage everyone goes crazy, and I hold up my shirt over my head. Amy seems to catch a glimpse of it right off hand and she smiled very big when she saw it. They kick off the show with Goin' Under and totally rock MM. Inbetween each song I would hold up my shirt, and every single time I would Amy would look at it and smile looking straight at me. Now I was only 2 rows of people back, so I was really close to the stage, and I could see Amy's eyes really well, and everytime she would look into my eyes I would just melt...she has the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen. The show was going great in mid-set, though there was some minor feedback here it was going solid. During Even in Death one of the lyrics in the chorus is "I will stay forever here with You." and everytime she sang that line she would look over at me, point and smile as she sang the "forever here with you" part. Now...I might be over exagrating, but my mom was standing right next to me the whole time and after the show my mom just kept saying over and over how many times she looked at me. I think part of it was she reconized me from the Nashville show, and couldn't quite figure out where she had seen me before, and the other part was probley cause the shirt. By the end of Evanescence's performance, and the first time I turned around to look at the crowd, it was over 600,000 people again...and the sky's were bright blue and sunny, as people crammed in to see all the bands.
Overall the show was awesome! And Evanescence gave another great performance, and I am even more in love with Amy Lee now...Critics in Atlanta (The Atlanta News Paper) even liked the band, but seemed to rag on how some of the songs sounded a like, but they seemed to love Amy. They said that the band-or atleast Amy- will do anything but what their defination means, to fade away. I do have some pics, but I don't have them uploaded yet, I will add them asap.
