My Review of the DC Concert (or at least the only part the mattered tongue.gif )

Katharine came out after the girls group number. She went into her normal sitting starting position, which made me think she would start out with SOTR. She jumped into on 'on knees' version of Black Horse and her voice was noticeably weak. She moved very well and I don't think she has ever looked better (she wore a stunning white dress, just wait for the pictures w00t.gif ) Kat broke into tears at the end of Black Horse and addressed the crowd. She explained that this was her first concert and that the flight to Pitt was delayed 9 hours. fear2.gif Then Kat said that she would only be able to do two songs (doctor's orders) and her other song would be SOTR.

This was my favorite version since the first on AI. She finally broke out of her very conservative vocals and even belted some beatifully at the end. Before singing the last two lines, there was enormous applause and she actually had to wait about a minute to finish the song. HUGE audience reaction.

The final number was her only other appearance and she did not sing (at least not detectably). She didn't really know the dance coreography and it was the cutest thing I've ever seen. She kinda went the wrong direction and then she and Chris were laughing about it together. Everyone seemed so kind and understanding trying to help her through. huggy.gif

So overall:
Somewhere Over the Rainbow was the clear best vocal of the night. Black Horse sounded like she had 1/3 of her normal voice.
Her first outfit was incredible and her second was cute (a white blouse sorta thing with a belt over it).
The show was very entertaining but the acoustics in the MCI center are awful, yet somehow SOTR was the only song of the entire night to overcome this.

On a side note, my second favorite was Lisa's version of Elton John's "Your Song." She played the piano herself and this was the only other song that was not signifcantly harmed by the acoustics of the building.

Thanks for the review; I hope her voice continues to get better. I know how frustrating it can be to sing without your full potential. And I am so happy that she recieved such great reception from the audience.

Thanks BRich! I'm so glad to hear she got a warm reception. She probably didn't plan to do any belting, but she was probably so full of adrenaline from the excitement of finally being there that it just came out.
