1.3.16 TOH Tour begins in Beijing, China!! + RECAP

Today is both a very exciting day and a very sad day for me.  

First the exciting part, which is of course the first concert of TOHT!!! Loved all the bits and pieces we are getting. WOW, the VOCALS - so beautiful as usual!!! WOW, the light show - I LOVED IT!!! And WOW, Adam sang Runnin!!! I so love the way Runnin transitions into Chokehold, although I would have never thought to do that. But "running" is in the Chokehold lyric, so it makes a lot of sense. But I missed Shady, hope it gets added at least for the USA tour.

And I love the first costume - very different, very edgy, really goes with the light show. I think we will see the first costume the whole tour. Since they have to wash and do any necessary repairs to costumes between shows, I bet he has 2 of the first costume. Maybe they are slightly different, but probably very similar. But I think we will see more noticeable variations in the 2nd and 3rd costumes during the tour. I think the cherry blossom suit is very appropriate/symbolic for Japan and China. But I bet he changes up the suit to something with a more summer feel for Australia and New Zealand. And those white pants are getting SO distressed! Not sure they will last through the whole tour. So unless he has at least 2 pairs of those pants and the Katty t-shirt, I think different pants and t-shirts with the green jacket for back to back concerts.

And the sad part of my day, the youngest daughter of one of my closest friends died this morning. She was just 29 years old. My friend, S, is the one who introduced me to Adam. Another friend and I used to watch Dancing With the Stars at S's house every week. One week they told me that I had to see this guy on Idol. Then S played Adam's Satisfaction performance from that week's Idol show. I was hooked and then we had two shows to watch every week. S and I also attended 2 GNT concerts together. She is not OTT like me (rarely online at all) and depends on me to feed her the latest news about Adam.

And the daughter, K, was also my friend. She had a very big heart for cats and was the one who rescued my 2 orange tabby brother and sister kittens, Tiger & Lily, almost 8 years ago. Tiger (see my icon) died 2.5 years ago and I now have a new silver tabby cat who had already been named Tiger. It haunts me that K and orange Tiger died from somewhat similar issues.
