Wow. By far the best night of my life. The concert was amazing- there were a few technical difficulties (a broken mic stand, and she had to restart fever part way through) but she got through those little hiccups so gracefully. I loved hearing When you wish upon a star- so beautiful. She also sang I honestly love you, as a tribute to the wonderful Peter Allen. My only criticism would be that it was over too quickly!!! I could have listened to her for hours. Marvin Laird was there (my mum thought he was great- he's extremely entertaining to watch!), as was Cubby, and I also saw Patty briefly afterwards- I'm pretty sure it was her, I've seen a few pictures.

I got to meet Bernadette twice! I went to the Saturday night performance, and quickly made my way to the stage door afterwards. I was at the front of the pack (there were a lot of people waiting to see her) but as soon as she came out I got trampled. I was nearly pushed to the ground a couple of times! I don't like crowds- being a little on the small side, it can be a bit intimidating having people sort of stand over you, especially when they're also trying to push you out of the way. Thanks to my mum (who dragged me forward) I got to meet Bernadette very very briefly- she signed a cd for me and took a photo- but I was so overwhelmed by all the pushing and shoving, that I didn't get to really experience the moment. We were staying in a hotel across the street and our window looked out at the theatre and when we saw people heading out after the Sunday night performance, mum suggested we go across and watch her at the stage door again. Again there were a lot of people, but we just stood back and watched this time. I wasn't going to bother her for another autograph, but once the crowd thinned, my mum found her ticket from the night before in her bag, and took me up to meet her again and get it signed. I was too nervous to say much- mum did all the talking, saying how we'd driven eight and a half hours to see her, how I was a big fan etc, and Bernadette said 'thank you very much' and asked if I wanted a photo taken. She was so kind, and very patient- she signed things and had photos taken with everyone who waited.

It was an amazing experience- I'll never forget it. I meet some really nice people at the stage door both nights. Sorry for rambling, but the excitement hasn't died down yet! I envy those of you who have had the opportunity to see her multiple times, but considering I thought I'd never get the chance to see her even once, I can't really complain!
