I don't know why they went on so late, but I do know what the encore was. They just played Rock 'N Roll Razorblade- probably because it was so late. :)

I didn't know why they got on so late, either. :(

Did anybody wait for the guys outside the bus after the show? I tried waiting, but it's such a long wait. We saw Zac come out and smile at the fans, then Ike was busily lugging around something heavy and placed it under the bus. Zac smiled at us again, and we basically gave up and left. It was past 1:30AM and we had a long drive home. I didn't get to take a pic with Zac, but I met Carrick Moore Gerety of Everybody Else [the vocalist]. He was walking around with his guitar and we took pics together, while everyone didn't really care [people were all waiting for Hanson]. I told him that I really like his old band, The Push Kings. Carrick was a darling. :)

PS: I took a video of the finale... I'll have to post it on YouTube though, and I'll do it later.

I expected the long wait because their last concert at Amos' had three openers and they waited an hour after the last opener to come out. It was awful... I think that if we're going to have to wait that long, we need SEATS! I thought it was a great concert, but next time I'm going to have to get there extremely early just to get one of the few bar stools.

Yeah, I was getting a little antsy. I'm the type that usually gets to bed around 11:00, and they didn't even come out until 11:00. (Plus it was *really* hot where I was standing. A few girls about passed out and had to be taken out from the crowd). BUT, the show was FANTASTIC. They played an amazing line-up with awesome energy. I mean, come on, we got Never Let Go! How cool is that? I think it's my favorite show to date. Both Isaac and Zac (and all the members of Everybody Else) came out after the show to sign autographs and take pictures. They both worked through the crowd pretty quickly, but they were really nice to everyone. The staff at Amos' made a bunch of us move when Isaac was signing autographs, so he spent an especially long time making sure that everyone who had to move didn't get screwed out of an autograph. I thought that was really nice of him.

He's so precious. I know everyone usually waits for Hanson, but when I waited after the Louisville show, I definately had no problem chatting it up with him and Mikey.

I thought they could have done a better job of trying to get some air into the venue maybe. The concert overall was good however, I got put into the smush zone, up towards the front (haha) and couldn't move very well, but having to wait so long at times between acts was a little bit hard for me cause I was getting tired of standing. But other wise it was a good show, and I got some good pics.

That dave barnes or whatever got on my nerves. He played way too many songs. Everybody Else played like 5 songs which was great but the other dude played like 10! That is seriously too many songs for an opening band to play. By the time he left the stage I was already tired and in pain...but once Hanson got out there, I magically got my energy back. :D Also, Hanson played a few more songs than they usually do I believe.

Aw, that was nice of Isaac! We left the venue pretty quickly after the show and got a good spot at the barricade around the bus. I got a picture with Zac, but we were on the side that had to move so I just figured it wasn't worth it to wait in a line that was like 4 people wide. I'm glad to hear Isaac took the time to sign stuff for everyone.

It was actually my very first Hanson show, I had the time of my life despite getting really sick a few minutes before they got onstage and sore feet from both standing for so long and from The Walk; during The Walk, my feet started to bleed a little bit.  It sucked but it could've been worse. 

I was way too shy to talk to any of the members of Hanson, Zac especially since he's my hero.  When he came outside after the show to sign stuff, I wanted him to sign a drawing I worked hard on but he frisked away.  It's alright though, at least I got some high-fives from the guys of Everybody Else.  They were absolutely amazing & nice.  I definitely cant wait to see Hanson again.  They played my absolute favorite songs - Wheres the Love, Blue Sky & Watch Over Me.  So Im very content with how the show went.  Met some very nice people too so can't wait to see y'all again.

I took the walk.

Oh yeah, I wasn't much of a fan of Dave Barnes either. Listening to his music on myspace before the show, it sounded like something I'd like, but live, it all sounded very similar to me. I think it's the type of music I'd probably enjoy listening to at home or in my car, but it's not energetic enough for me to enjoy it live.

I'm actually obsessing more on Everybody Else right now, than Hanson. Embarassed

Yeah, Mikey actually was walking around while people were waiting in line for the show. We were at the middle and Mikey was like, "this is the longest line I've ever seen!!!" I didn't recognize him at first since he had long hair in the old pics and the Meat Market music video. I saw him brush his teeth, toothbrush and all, while watching Dave Barnes play. It was so cute. xD

I agree with the Dave Barnes comments. He played too many songs. I really laughed when he went, "So are you guys ready for Hanson???" and people were like, "YEAHHHH!!!" and he was like, "I was thinking you could've said 'I think so' or 'I guess'..." One big OUCH for Dave Barnes, lol. Tongue out

About what time did the guys go out after the show? We had to go home at about 1:30 because we couldn't wait any longer... I really wanted to get a pic with Zac, though as I said earlier, I met Carrick and took photos with him instead, so I don't feel too bad. Carrick is awesome. Cool

i definatlly agree with with hollybelle....dave just kinda got on my nerves after a while.  i was kinda amazed that they sang songs form the ep album i hadnt heard any of it so it kinda dragged a little. Im glade to know i wasnt the only one sick in there that night though and at least it was orgianized.

i think the reason they were so late coming on was bc they were taking forever deciding on the set list. at least thats what one of the roadie guys said. but it was a great show!

I thought the show was amazing. I agree that Dave Barnes stayed on for a little too long and then it seemed like it took a while for Hanson to get the setlist out so they could finish getting the stage ready. I thought the walk went smoothly, minus the fire ants, and I thought the end of the walk and registration was much more organized than when I walked last spring. Inside I had a spot near the bar and I had, for the most part, a lot of room to move around though I thought it was really, really hot in there. But I thought the setlist was amazing and I still can't believe Taylor played Never Let Go. I never thought I'd ever hear that song live. Definitely one of my favorite shows ever.
