The Incredible Machine 8-12-2010

“Ain’t no party like a Sugarland party” rang thru the arena, and Jennifer knows what she is talking about. Sugarland knows how to party and put on one heck of a show. This is my 5 th Sugarland show, the best ever and they have taken the spot of best show I have ever seen. It was a non-stop SUGARRUSH! The show started with Michael Jackson’s Black and White and then the curtain fell and there it was the amazing stage, The Incredible Machine, then all of a sudden you hear the sound of Jenn’s voice singing “Wide Open” and the show begins. They work the stage like no other, flawlessly flowing from song to song. It Happens and Settlin’ were next up and the crowd was so pumped that once they stood up they stayed up. After Settlin’ Jenn talked about beautiful people and dedicated All I Wanna Do to all the beautiful people in the arena. Then she tells us about a girl that fell in love in the summertime and one of my personal favorites came on, Want To? Incredible Machine, Stuck Like Glue, Find the Beat, and Stand Up was the songs from The Incredible Machine that they gave us a “Sneaky Peaky” in Jenn’s words. Baby Girl was an intimate, “campfire” song according to Sugarland, along with Genevieve. One of the highlights of the nights came next, Everyday America with a remix of Beyonce, Jackson 5, and Miley Cyrus. The lights went out and the screen turned black and white, it was time for Stay, I think the crowd over sang them on this song. At the end of the show Jenn said that everyone tells her she is lucky and she always replies “Your Damn Right,” Something More hits. They came back for an encore, of the new song Stand Up (very touching performance), Very Last Country Song with opening act Vonda Shepard, and Staying Alive with the giant afro wig. I sat in my chair and said “is it really over, do I have to leave now?” This show was AMAZING.

Sweetness: 5 sugarcubes of 5 sugarcubes

Highlights: Stayin’ Alive, Want To, Stuck Like Glue, and Stand Up. And As Always Please Enjoy the Show.
