   Attended an America/Christopher Cross concert last night. At first I   
   was majorly depressed because First they don't allow photography of   
   any sort.  Second, they didn't even give you a proper ticket   
   (print-off on your PC thingy as they don't have a will call) and   
   third, this venue is not good for standing, dancing, shouting etc...   
   they ushers dress up in formal wear.  The crowd was dressed lower than   
   usual (with about half wearing starched jeans and dress shirts and   
   about less than 1/4 tshirts).  I wasn't about to NOT feel comfortable   
   so jeans it was...   
      
   I saw too, they actually had police around the back (but slick me   
   would still figure out easily how to get back there) but we didn't   
   have to.   
      
   After the concert, Jerry and Dewey came out and signed for everyone...   
   anything that they had and did not leave till they were done!  They   
   shook hands, took photos, and talked to everyone.  Alas my comment   
   might have been insulting a bit (unintentionally); as I said we only   
   get to see them about once a decade.  Jerry responded that he'll   
   probably see me twice more then~  lol.  Well he is 59 years old I   
   guess and I guess that means he'll not stop touring....   
      
   Anyway, so got two photos of them and a signed CD (which I had my   
   husband run and buy quickly as I didn't know they'd sign or I'd of   
   bring something from home).  No Christopher  Cross though.  But   
   America was a "class act".   
      
   PS they sounded pretty good.
