Yeah. It doesn't make sense to me. :/

Well now Kate is back in the USA and starting the other part of her tour. I get to see her in October and I can't wait!

Just a little article talking about her tour (among other things )... http://eburban.com/cat-news/id.9402/...our-in-october

Okay, so here we go:

Melissa and I went to see her in Buffalo with a couple of our other friends so we roadtripped there and we got there about 3 hours before the doors opened so we waited outside for a while. It s raining but we hid under the building since we were right at the front. There were only about 8 of us fans waiting until about 1 1/2 before the doors opened.


When we went inside we ran to get good spots and ended up front row dead center (it literally does not get any better than that) and then we got some friends to save our spots for us so we could go buy merch. The first 75 people to buy either a CD or a t-shirt of Kate's get a meet & greet pass to meet her after the show. So we got our meet & greet wristbands (we each bought t-shirts) and then we went back to our spots. The openers were Courier and I had never heard any of their songs before but they were alright. I don't know, I personally did not like them that much, but then again all I wanted was for Kate to come out, so maybe that was partially why.

So after tons of waiting Kate finally came out! I've been told that for all of the east coast dates Kate is playing first and for all of the west coast dates Parachute is playing first (just to make it more fair since it's co-headlining). SO Kate came out and she looked gorgeous and she was wearing this super cute skirt and a giant necklace (which might have been about 20 necklaces on top of each other or just 1 crazy one, lmao) and her leopard print heels and she looked AMAZING. And she started playing and her voice was just perfect. The setlist was truly perfect, they played songs from every album and she played 2 covers ("The Lazy Song" and "Til The World Ends") and it was such a great variety. I was really excited that she chose to play a lot of old songs too because it brought back so many memories.

It seemed like a lot of the people there were there for Parachute, or just didn't know Kate's earlier songs, because a lot of people didn't seem to know all of the words. But everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. I think we were the most excited (which doesn't surprise me, haha) but there were some really dedicated fans who made shirts and everything.

After Kate's set Parachute came out so we left our front row spots so that some fans of Parachute could take them because we cared more about seeing Kate obviously. SO we sat down near the back of the venue and watched Parachute while waiting for the meet & greet with Kate to start. I'm already a fan of Parachute's because Taylor Swift introduced me to them ages ago, so I really enjoyed their set. They really impressed me actually, because they weren't afraid to take risks. AT one point the lead singer stepped away from the microphone and was just singing without the mic. Which was awesome because you could tell how powerful his voice was. And they had saxophones and were playing on saxophones during a couple songs. Which was awesome.

As they were playing my friend introduced us to Kate's family (Courtney, her sister, Betsy, her mom, and Will, her dad were all at the show) and they were SO sweet! Let's just say that it's no wonder that Kate is so perfect. And as great a Parachute was, I was quite excited when they were done because I was so anxious to meet Kate again at this point. So we were waiting to meet her and we were hanging out with Bob (her drummer) a little bit because he was walking around and we wanted to say hi. Her band is all awesome!!!

So finally we got to see Kate she gave us all hugs and signed all of our stuff and took pictures and everything. She was SO SWEET and she wouldn't stop smiling and laughing and she was just so much fun to talk to. It was incredible because it had been so long since I'd last seen her and I forgot how much I missed her. So we got to talk for a little bit and she kept thanking us for coming and you could tell that she was sincere, and then eventually she had to go but she made sure to give us all hugs again as she was leaving, and said thank you another thousand times before she left...she's just such a goddess.

I didn't mean for this to be that long but I got excited replaying it in my head like that.

Pretty much.

I get to see Kate tomorrow again...it's weird because she's playing the same venue that she played the very first time I saw her in concert. It's going to bring back some memories.

They did, I was so nervous about that too! But I talked to the security guard before they opened the doors (so that I wouldn't lose my spot if they started letting people in and didn't let me in) and they ended up letting me in right away.

Parachute didn't end up playing the Montreal & Toronto shows which was actually kind of awesome because instead of the 13 songs Kate played in Buffalo, she played 17 tonight I think. And she got to do an encore.

So Kate is an angel. Just in case anyone was beginning to forget.

She's so so so sweet! And Melly I got you your autograph.

So glad and so jealous that you got to see Kate again! Glad she did a few more songs on this show with Parachute not on there.

I really truly wish you could have seen her on this tour. But it's only a matter of time before you get to see her again!

Last night she covered Hallelujah and played Kindly Unspoken as an encore and it was really beautiful!



Last night only the first 50 people to buy a Kate t-shirt or CD got to meet her apparently. I'm not really sure why. But if there are any posters lurking on here, make sure you go to the merch table at the beginning of the concert if you want to meet her.

If anyone wants to see my videos, I uploaded two...





If anyone wants to see the setlist, this was the setlist for her 2 Canadian dates that she just played. It was much longer since she was headlining those dates.

I'll bring it to school for you on Tuesday. It's beautiful, I pride myself in how well I ask for autographs, LMAO.

Kate & Parachute are playing in Chicago tomorrow and heading over that way. Have you guys seen this map of the tour route?! It looks so cool seeing it mapped out like this doesn't it?! Philadelphia, PA to Atlanta, GA - Google Maps

Oh yeah, that is so cool! I wonder if Kate will sing "Chicago" at that show, for obvious reasons?
