Jennifer Nettles at Eddie's Attic

Jennifer Nettles was SO awesome last night at Eddie's Attic! I had never been there before, but liked it a lot. It's really small and you have a great view wherever you are in the room. That turned out to be important since Candice and I missed the call for those who were on the Guest List to go in. We ended up standing near the back of the room, but could see perfectly.

Jennifer played for almost an hour and a half. The set list is below. Her new song, Hold You Tonight, might be my favorite. It's definitely one of her best. She's thinking of shopping it around, but if she records it herself, it will go right up there with Story of Your Bones. Here's what she sang:

Doxology (yes, that one - she opened with it a capella)
Beautiful Song
On the Shoulders of Giants
Tried Hard Enough
Gather Children (not sure of the title there)
In the Air
*which led into a verse of "Walkin' on the Moon" by The Police
Listen
Cahnge
Hold You Tonight
Stay With Me Tonight
Story of Your Bones
Don't You Wanna Know (again, not sure of the title)
Stay
Smoke and Mirrors
Improv "Come on Home"
Round and Round
*with "Hollaback Girl" and "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" in the breakdown

This was probably the best I've ever seen her, and we had a great time! You could tell she was having a lot of fun, also! I haven't seen her in a while, and she looks a lot different! Very thin, with very long, curly, blonde hair. It's her Sugarland look. She looked gorgeous and sounded amazing!

If you're not familiar with her music, you can listen at her site. Be forewarned there may be some language you probably don't want your co-workers hearing, though.

Best show I've been to in a LONG time. She knows how to work a crowd and handle them rather well--let me just say, if she had had an alter call--I might have gone up! It was fantastic!!!! Thanks Michelle!!
