Re: Another Henley solo date in Oklahoma at Downstream Casino Resort
Well, it looks like it's not going to turn out for me after all at this point. It was a nice idea, though! lol
At least The Border will be represented. Have a blast on behalf of all of us!
Re: Another Henley solo date in Oklahoma at Downstream Casino Resort
You guys don't have long now until your solo concerts! I can't wait to read your report and find out what is on Don's set list! Wonder if he will throw in some surprises like he did that summer in Dallas & OKC?
Re: Another Henley solo date in Oklahoma at Downstream Casino Resort
Nope, not long at all, DF! I've been busy doing some last-minute shopping and speculating as to what he'll sing, what he'll be wearing, etc. I'm just about to print off my flight tickets actually (I bought them a week or so ago, but they've only just come through. Talk about raising my heart rate!) I so can't wait. It's going to be incredible.
What surprises did he throw in when you saw him?
Oh, I also forgot to say, as all of my gushing has been in the other thread... Jess managed to get me a ticket in row 11, front center block, for this show! :yay:
Re: Another Henley solo date in Oklahoma at Downstream Casino Resort
Troub, he sang a fabulous new slow version of End of the Innocence that took our breath away. He also sang a ballad by Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits called "I'm the Fool," and a David Gray song called "Disappearing World."
I also absolutely lost it when he sang "I Will Not Go Quietly." That was the one solo song I wanted to hear the most, and it ROCKED.
Re: Another Henley solo date in Oklahoma at Downstream Casino Resort
I too am wondering what the set list will be. I love that he covers quite a few songs. I wouldn't mind it if he covers the same songs I heard last time. I think I love his versions of those songs even better. I hope hope hope that he does that same BEAUTIFUL version of End of the Innocence again. **SIGH** And I think I would :faint:if he does Come Rain or Come Shine.

I would SOOO love to hear these songs! One question though...which one of you two girls is going to pick the other one off the floor?? I picture two coalescing puddles of Peekaboo-Troubador mush...
Re: Another Henley solo date in Oklahoma at Downstream Casino Resort
Well, I don't think we'll be much use to each other anyway, as we're in different rows! Here's hoping I have a big, beefy bloke sat next to me (for safety reasons, obviously.) Preferably one that doesn't get freaked out by extreme female hysteria!
Re: Another Henley solo date in Oklahoma at Downstream Casino Resort
Aw Troub, just bat your eyes at your concert neighbor and call him a big beefy bloke to his face and you will have no trouble at all! In fact, you just may make him melt into a puddle!

:hilarious:
Oh crap!!! I didn't even think about that. I've just been sooo excited about seeing Don again that I didn't even think about the affects of actually seeing the man. I mentioned in another thread about getting Lou some smelling salts in case she faints but I didn't even think that I may need some for myself.
