Just got back from an amazing concert. Packed house. Jackie had the audience spellbound. As far as I am concerned, it was a flawless and charming performance. It was fun hearing "Starry Night", which I had never heard her do before. She did the full version of "Angel"--as you may remember, the version on her DWMIC DVD was missing the middle part. I had never heard her version of "Impossible Dream"--that was thrilling. One of the things that struck me so powerfully was her immediate connection with the audience. It was so sincere, human and charming. The duet with Josh Page was truly amazing. The crowd went crazy. A spontaneous explosion of feeling. Standing ovation for that number and everything after that. I'm gushing, I know. But isn't that what a fan does? After all "fan" is short for "fanatic"! But here is the main thing that I'm feeling. I have witnessed an historic event. In years to come, I will have the distinct pleasure of saying, "You know what? I saw and heard Jackie Evancho on that first big tour! I saw her when she was 11 years old. You should have seen her!"

The soundcheck dress was what she wore to the M&G.
She wore a light lavender dress for the first half, then a navy one for the second half [don't know fabric names].
The setlist appears to be the same as SF was.
Musical highlights: TLP, The Prayer duet with Josh.
House looked completely full to the rafters to me, minus maybe a bare handful.
The crowd LOVED her, and after the Pie Jesu encore, they stayed on their feet cheering for her, but it was clear that Elvis was up past her bedtime.
Overheard random quotes of the evening:
"Since Pavarotti died, there's been nobody worth paying to see; now there is."
"I've been to a total of 3 concerts in my life before tonight, but I think I will try to see her again."
"That was one of the most enjoyable evenings of my entire life."
She clearly plays to the kids she can see in the crowd, and looked directly at, and smiled at, my 13-year old niece several times, and several other 8-14 year old girls in the first few rows.
I'm nowhere near objective, so won't try to find new superlatives, but it is quite clear she can hold the notes for at least 25-percent longer than previously.
All of the orchestra were tapping their bows or doing the other "pro musician" signs of approval during the final ovation.

Just got back to Reno from Jackies concert what an amazing night. Having gone to the Mandalay bay concert back in December which I enjoyed very much I must say tonight she blew that performance away. The theater seemed completely packed to me and would definately call this a sell out. The duet with Josh Page was mindblowing well deserving of the standing O they recieved after that one. And then Jackie seemed to step it up a notch if that was even possible and received standing ovations for the rest of her songs. Advice for Jackie fans get seats in the first ten rows leave the back rows for the curious trust me its worth the extra money.

Definitely agree with your view that Sacramento (or any of her concerts, for that matter) was an historic event. I took my granddaughter to see Jackie perfom on Monday in S.F. and we attended the M&G and got a nice photo with Jackie. It was my granddaughter's first brush with fame and I was so thrilled to be able to give her that experience. Jackie's voice is so out of this world that you have to remind yourself that she is still just a child - but a truly amazing one at that. Her recent tweet about playing with her Monster High dolls before the S.F. sound check really helps to bring that fact into focus. When not completely immersed in a song she is as giggly and bubbly as any other young girl her age but once she gets her mindset into the start of a song - any song - it's like a switch goes on and she becomes something that is truly extraordinary. I've never seen anything like it before and will carry those memories with me for the rest of my life. Yeah, I'm gushing too. Can't help myself . . .

March 28, 2012 Sacramento Community Center Theater

The place was packed. Although I couldn't see beyond the first rows of the two balconies from my seat in the middle of the orchestra section. The theater itself is quite plain. Much more like a very large movie theater than an opera house. The acoustics were good.

As usual, the orchestra started the concert with a couple of classical pieces. I have no idea what they were. No programs were available. When they finished their second song we all started applauding but had to immediately cut it short because the song wasn't actually over yet. It was just a long pause in the music. Soon they quit playing again and we all applauded again, but the song still wasn't over. We were all laughing at our collective faux pax. Even the musicians had big smiles on their faces.

The song choices for this concert were identical to the San Francisco concert two nights earlier, with one exception. In S.F. Josh Page sang 'Fools Rush In' but here he sang 'It's Now Or Never'.

Here is the list of songs in order.
Lovers
To Where You Are
All I Ask Of You
O SOL O MIO - J.P.
Imaginer
Nella Fantasia
It's Now Or Never - J.P.
Impossible Dream
Intermission
Orchestra - 1 song
When You Wish Upon A Star
Starry Starry Night
You Raise Me Up - J.P.
The Lord's Prayer
Angel
The Prayer - duet
O Mio Babbino Caro
encore - Pie Jesu
plus one curtain call.

From the moment she walked on stage (to rousing applause) you could see that she was very happy to be there. Big smile and waving before going into superstar mode. As expected, she performed every song flawlessly and with great emotion. However, for the first time that I know of, she did have a little flub on WYWUAS. Got some of the lyrics out of order. But being the professional she is, covered it so seamlessly that those who were not totally familiar with the lyrics probably didn't even know it.

A couple of times during the concert she addressed the audience and sincerely thanked them for their support. She doesn't use a script. She speaks from her heart. So cute and endearing. Also at one point she turned to the orchestra and said, 'I would like to thank this phenomenal orchestra for..........being phenomenal'. LOL. What's not to love about this kid? :-)

The first standing O came after TLP. Then another for The Prayer duet and also after her last song, OMBC. And of course another very extended one after her encore, Pie Jesu, which eventually brought her out for a curtain call. She was all smiles and did her double wave and was blowing kisses to the audience who just didn't want the night to end.
