I think I will leave earlier than originally planned then. Is it graduated seating in the balcony, like in a movie theatre?

apparently i-75 is all tore up... is there another highway you can take rachel??
i'm on i-75 for about 3 minutes just after i cross the border and i'm desperately hoping that that section isn't torn up... i have a gps thank god but still!! EDIT: oh, jesus. it totally is tore up on the part i need to take. the highway is closed 1 exit before the one i need to take! dang. well, i have a sense of where i need to go now, but with this being a. the long weekend and b. sport central in detroit the downtown streets are going to be congested as shit i think... cheryl and gang, if you're reading this - i'll keep you posted on the sitch as soon as i cross!!

If you guys use mapquest, it takes into account the I-75 closure. I'm coming from Toledo and it told me to get off an exit or two earlier than I normally
would. The only difference is I have to drive on city roads for an extra mile or two.
I'm hoping traffic won't be so bad in the earlier part of the day (long before the sports stuff starts). Also, the basketball stadium is pretty far from where the concert is (the hockey stadium is closer, but about 5 miles away. So that shouldn't affect parking). The baseball diamond is right next door, but it's just a regular season game and it doesn't start until the nighttime. So, as long as we allow plenty of time to get there, it shouldn't be too bad.

my mapquest didn't take it into account - it's telling me to take the part of the highway that's closed haha
i guess i'm going to cross over through the tunnel as opposed to the bridge and take the city up... yikes. this really throws a wrench in my plans... anyways. i'm hitting the road. see you guys this afternoon! |

If you are coming from Canada the tunnel is more direct anyway. I am in Windsor and mapquest was going to send me over the bridge but a friend who works in MI
said to take the tunnel and it's much quicker - only a few minutes from the tunnel.

oh yes definitely take the tunnel! it basically takes you right to comerica park.
love is love sufficient unto love and you can figure out the rest

Finally the day has arrived! Im sure this has already been addressed but does anyone know for sure if this is a Mraz solo performance or if the bands coming
too? Either way it will be amazing, just curious. Also, just wondering if anybody is heading to detroit earlier and hanging out at hockeytown before the
show. I plan on doing that but dont know what time it will get rediculously packed because of the baseball and hockey games. Thanks!

I had to leave during the encore and only heard up through Bella Luna and Only Human. Did he sing much after that?
I think I got some great pics, which I'll upload this weekend. |

Setlist:
An improv about Detroit and hockey On Love, In Sadness Remedy (w/bass solo + In the Future rap + Wonderwall) Fly Me to the Moon (*sigh*) If It Kills Me The Toca Cabana Theme Song (music's his passion / he's half black and Latin) Dynamo (NO NAP TIME!!! Let there be rejoicing.) Live High, including the first appearance of the "Lift me up to the almighty...", which is a balm for the missing horns. Beautiful Mess I'm Yours (w/ scat sing-a-long and Three Little Birds) ================== an inexplicably strangely-timed break===================== 1000 Things Bella Luna (during which Toca has an intimate relationship with his guiro)  Also, some opera and my favorite "the language of love" bit....
Only Human Butterfly It's been a while since a Mraz-only show. It's good to have them back. With the release of the album, much of the crowd knows the new songs. That meant lots of energy from a very large crowd -- many of them just out of diapers. Matty Nay, who wins tonight's award for best cover tunes, uncovered the generation gap by asking us to sing along to Jesse's Girl. Some of our fellow concert-goers are not that well attuned to concert ettiquette. No, you may not crawl between my legs to try to get in front of me. It simply isn't done, even if you're desperate for a picture. And, if you're going to climb over short people to get to the front, let's not be surprised when they call you trash. |
