Not sure when I will get a Review done, since I have 3, back to back shows, in 3 cities to review. From Columbus to Cincy and back, then to Youngstown then to Cleveland. all I can say is... It was INCREDIBLE!! And the M&G in Youngstown with Alex and..............LISA!!! Then Chloe and Mairead in Cleveland... Having the first 2 rows, in the center section at The Palace in Cleveland filled with Forum members was AWESOME!!! But now I am home, tired and only about 4hrs of sleep each night since Thursday.

I second what Mel has said. The shows were AMAZING to say the least, but I think the term amazing is to light of a word to be used for these concerts.

Mel, so glad you got Lisa at the M&G again. She is too cool. Looking forward to seeing some reviews. I'm also quite glad that Máiréad was at the M&G in Cleveland this weekend.

I am tellng you Emily, You need to go to a M&G with ME!!
Out of the last 6, 5 had Mairead at them lol
Once my eyes are focusing again, and my hands are not so sore, I hope to be able to start, maybe tomorrow before work starts.
I never thought I could clap my hands raw, but today they are sore as all heck. Even blistered...but it was SO WORTH IT!!

Oh...and I forgot to mention Mairead the Gymnyast!! STICK THAT LANDING GIRL!! WE needed those 10 cards to flash at her . Mairead on those arena temporary stages are an awakening experience. I think they heard her stick that landing up to the rafters!! And the Grin she gave. It was during Mo Ghile Mear. She just come down that ramp and this loud THUNK as she lands right in front of us, with that huge grin and gleam in her eye as if to say...How was That! You could hear all of us go WHOA!!! :owhen she stuck that landing and heard the sound it made

Yeah next tour I need a Mel M&G. I need your Máiréad luck! Sore hands from clapping? Definitely a good thing.

Translation: Mairead rocked the house last night and would have gotten even Nadia Comaneci's approval for her leaps and jumps. Her landing at one point, as Mel so eloquently put it, would have earned an easy 10. Mel thinks we should have judge cards with nothing but 10's on them to tell Mairead how well she does

Chris, I completely agree, It was great to see you again, Tom Translation: Mairead rocked the house last night and would have gotten even Nadia Comaneci's approval for her leaps and jumps.

During Mo Ghile Mear. I wasn't watching Mairead, not sure who I was watching at the time, just seen this white flash and with the stage having that hollow sound, since it is an arena stage, when Mairead landed, it gave this loud, THUD, which basically woke us up! There was this audible...Gasp of WHOA from the audience, and for Mairead and taken a nice leap, and just did a 10 pt landing and she just had this huge grin on her face and twinkle in her eye, I think she may have even laughed at our reaction. I told Zo I wish we had those 10 score cards they use for the Gymnastics, cause Mairead would of had all 10's!! It was like an Gymnast that say, does one of the floor exercises, takes a huge leaps and STICKS the landing, as they call it, where they just land perfect, with no bobbles or extra steps. It was just I had the stage make that noise when Mairead has done this before. I just figured she landed in a more hollow area. But it wasn't a BAD Thing! It just kind of shocked us LOL!!

[O/T] I've made up a "10" card you can hold up when Máiréad "sticks a landing." You can save and print it yourself, or contact me and I'll send you some pre-printed on glossy paper. I think it'd be fun if a bunch of forum members held them up simultaneously. Click on image to view full size

If anyone has my r_ropes@bellsouth.net email address saved, you can delete it. I got tired of subsidizing AT&T.

Cool, we found a subject that Maggie is not an expert<g> Having raised a gymnast andhaving seen Mairead in 2007 , I can well imagine a 10 point. Now if she do a dismount from a bean while fiddling. not that would be a double 10.
