I literally just walked into the door and have to share. As you all know by now, Randy Travis made a surprise visit to sing ITYS with Carrie. Imagine that? It was incredible watching 17,000 people go nuts! Orianthi played LN live with Carrie and that was so awesome as well! The best part was the orchestra opening up CC and you knew it was going to be that kind of special night. The strings and piano addded so much to the intimate setting of the event. At the end, the fireworks was incredible and began when Carrie started BHC and still was on diplay during SLT! If there was one concert to be and imo, the best it was this one. So glad tons of Carrie's fans were there to share it with her and cheer her on. This ETOY is not in Kansas anymore, she's big time. Selling out the bowl? Are you kidding me???? I finally got to meet Leilamaurizia too! Tons of vids to share folks! I'm so jealous about everything!

Awesome compliment from Fred Bronson of Billboard (I think he left in 2009): FredBronson: Just arrived home after seeing the fabulous Carrie Underwood at the Hollywood Bowl. Best show I've seen at the Bowl since the Beatles! twitter.com/FredBronson

Couple of songs they weren't playing. I'd say it was about 80% though and they were kicking arse. The piano on SS was incredible! I got some vid panning the crowd during BC's set to give you an idea how it was. These vids are huge in size do it's coming.. Yup, Stephen you blew it! ETA: forgot to mention i Have vid of the long standing O after HGTA

I'm watching the vids right now as well. Not sure if I'm gonna get sleep tonight lol.
Right before WASTED, she said how it was her first time at the bowl and how excited she was, sort of like her dream or something. You'll see.
I filmed from the screen most of the time, best way to get the different camera angles and close ups!

Too bad they wasted an opportunity to make a DVD out of this. There wasn't filming going on. Bummer. 85% uploaded on the first vid.

I bet she was very excited and it seems like she brought her A game throughout the whole show! EEEEK, how was Desi??! lol

I just got home and have a really early start tomorrow so just some quick tidbits:
- the never-ending standing ovation after JTTW/HGTA was spine-tingling. People wouldn't stop screaming, cheering and hollering. It was truly a moment to behold. Every time you thought it was over, the cheering would start up again. - sold out! Imagine a 17,000-strong audience on their feet singing along during the concert. I was smack dab in the middle of the amphitheater and all around me as far as the eye can see, people were standing up singing UI, LN, BHC and SLT. A sea of people!! - orchestra! Imagine all Carrie songs being backed by an orchestra. It's even better than you can imagine.
More tomorrow night and hopefully, I'll still have this amazed feeling somewhat intact. Fred Bronson is right, the fabulous Carrie Underwood indeed! I had really high expectations and am pretty hard to please. This concert ... was beyond anything I could ever have expected.

Yeah, just keep on checking back on my channel and go back after it fully processes, the sound will be much better. The orchestra adds so much to change the dynamics of some of the songs for the better.

Thanks for the video, Vinman. They are great. However you may want to check the Change video. The sound is out-of-sync.

Nice tweet from Orianthi: twitter.com/orianthi @orianthi: had an awesome time last night jamming out with Carrie Underwood at the Hollywood bowl!EDIT: Clip of the fireworks during Songs Like This! Amazing! www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWJsGkrz_Ak&feature=related^ Vinman, thanx so so much for the review and videos! I cannot wait to watch them! I am so excited for Carrie! What a great night! Did she play the piano to MS or play guitar? I am just curious as it is weird with an orchestra and Carrie playing too, you know? lol I did notice a piano on the front of the stage so I thought that might be for Carrie for MS. ^ Desi I am so happy you got to be there for arguably her coolest concert ever. I bet they invite her back to the Hollywood Bowl since she sold out. Did you guys see any celebs there? Twitter said William H. Macy was there and some chick from the Housewises of Orange County or something like that. lol

Yes, she played her guitars for SH and AAG, as well as the piano for MS. She didn't play the flying-truck songs (TMHCR + TT). I was able to take a pic of the sold-out sign outside: It's the morning after and I'm still in shock that I witnessed such a momentous event. Woooow!

Just woke up! Sorry about the TH vid, I've corrected that title and am now uploading JTTW/HGTA.
T, as for MS. Yes Carrie played that fixed piano during. I have vid also but on my standard def cam (ran out of memory on the HD). She also played guitar on AAG.
I'll have to check that CHANGE vid for the problem css.

Great pictures from Celebrity Gossip site from the show last night. Pretty fierce shot of her playing guitar! :) celebrity-gossip.net/carrie-underwood/photo/carrie-underwood-565^ Thanx Vinman! You did an amazing job on your videos! So happy you got to be there! not to be greedy--- but did you get Songs Like This and BHC? Dying to see your awesome footage of the fireworks etc. Thanx! I am so happy this was in LA as I am sure lots of press were there, so hopefully Carrie gets some good reviews from this!

That HGTA performance sounds like her best yet. The note at the end was extended at least 3-5 extra seconds!
