Tickets will go on-sale on Saturday, January 27, 2007.

Chevelle (http://www.chevelleinc.com/) and Finger Eleven (http://www.fingereleven.com/) will join Evanescence on this tour.

Evanescence is also planning a third U.S. leg which will bring the band to arenas in major markets in the late spring/early summer.

I'd love to go to this one but its so down south, like all the way across the freakin state. Why does new mexico have to be so big? plus its on a school day, hopefully i can convince my mom to take me there (or get her to allow someone to take me) since tickets go on sale 2 days after my birthday.
wish me luck.

I live in Arizona, which is directly west of New Mexico, but I can't go this concert because Las Cruces is a good four-and-a-half hours away from my area. This is also a school day and I'm shooting for perfect attendance at the end of the year. My love for Ev is not going to stand in the way of me getting that record. I also don't want to endure another long car ride for just one little concert, because the trip to the Phoenix performance was long enough to begin with.

[Maniac05]

I'm planning to go to this show. Only 45 minutes away from where I live.

Finally Las Cruces Gets A Good Artist to come. lol. Am I the Only EvThread Member that lives in this city?

[secretstars]

I'm debating between here and Vegas but I'm leaning towards Las Cruces because I'm pretty sure it will be less expensive than staying in Vegas. I would only need to take 2 days off work most likely, which is worth it. Its like 6 hours from Phoenix, but TOTALLY worth it.

I'm in Albuquerque, about 250 mi. north. I'd love to go... but I'd have to be sure they aren't coming to Albuquerque in that "third leg" part of the tour first.

[saranewt24]

I will so be there!!!

[Ray]

Exactly one month from today i will be getting ready for the concert. lol

Thats what I'm hoping too. I'm closer to Albuquerque than Las Cruces. I asked my mom if she could take me but she said she can't take any more days off work.

[Maniac05]

is anyone else coming to this show?

[Daniel_P_16]

Man, I wish I had been able to attend this show! I didn't even attempt to ask either of my parents to take me because today was a school day and the trek would have been at least 4 1/2 hours becuase I live close to the Mexican border in Arizona.:mad:

[Hollee]

One of my friends went and she just called me during Your Star and it sounded awesome! Can't wait to hear what she says afterward. She was the FIRST one in line at the door. She's dedicated.

[Starah]

The show f-ing rocked! Seriously, it was awesome!! Chevelle and Finger Eleven were good to, though I wish Finger Eleven would have had a longer set. Oh well, Evanescence brought the house down. We were on the floor, two rows back, so we were nice and close. I can't say enough about how good their live shows are!

It Was Awesome! ! !! I Had Front Row Seats. The Only Sucky Part Was That I Had Front Row Towards The Middle Of The Stage So When Amy Got On The Piano I Couldn't See Her. The Rest Was Pretty Cool. It Was Boring When Finger Eleven Played (sucky opener). Chevelle Was Okay. But The Real Show Was Evanescence. I Got Freaked Out When It Started Snowing During Lithium lol. I Could Only Take Pictures With My Camera Phone. Digita Cameras Were Not Allowed But I Managed To Sneak My In. But Since I Had Front Row, There Was Security RIGHT in My Face. Between Chevelle And Evanescence I Pulled My Camera Out And Started Taking Pictures Of My Friends And Me And Security Said Nothing. I Guess They Were Only Worried About Taking Pictures Of The Show. After The Show We Waited Outside And I Manage To Take A Picture Of Tim, John, And Terry. When Amy Lee Came Out To Sign Autographs They Said Not To Take Pictures With Flash. It Was Dark So My Camera Phone Was Useless. I Let The Most Of The Band Sign My $20 Bill. I Let Amy Sign My KRZR Phone and My $20 Bill. I Got A Hug From Her And She Said "I Love You Baby". lol, That Got My Happy. :D Evanescence Played 17 Songs. They Were Kinda In This Order.

Hollee, you have sexy friends. ;) And oh my GAWD, John is hot. *dies*

[Maniac05]

The concert was awesome. Amy got sort of pissed because people were taking pics with their cell phones. She said something about you can't enjoy the show like that and to put that "****" down, lol. Well anyways I found the buses just when Tim was in the middle of giving autographs, then Terry and later John came. It took like 2 hours for Amy to come out. And Beth was with her. Someone I know got Beth's,Richie's, and Josh's autograph too.

I was at the end of the line, like sort of even with the buses but just to the right. Well anyways Terry came right up to us to sign things and he was drinking a beer so he left it on some kind of cone thing. And the people in front of me were talking about that beer can from Terry. Before Amy came out, people had begun chatting with the security. And the someone in front of me asked for Terry's beer can. It was so funny cause the security dude emptied it out, and were like "aww", lol. But now they have Terry's beer can. I took a pic of it, but it was dark so I'm not sure if it will come out.

It was sad though that some people didn't know some of the guys of the band. This girl behind me was wondering who Rocky was and some guy who just got a Tim's autograph on his shoe was asking me later who he was.

Oh yeah I took my EvClub pic of Amy for her to sign. Well she signed it and Beth started commenting on how she never sees these pics and how pretty it is. Amy said she likes how it sort of glows around her in that pic and I guess she forgot or something, but she signed that pic twice. :)

I got John's autograph twice, but I lost the ticket he signed :(

here's the autographs, everyone except Rocky's

Haha, they were the ones who asked for Terry's beer can along with 2 other people. I was behind them lol, they were really cool people.

[Hollee]

LOL they got Terry's beer can? How come she didn't tell me that? She's such a dork. I love her though. We're going to the next Denver show together since I'll be back in CO then. Sounds like ya'll had fun.

[Useful Idiot]

yeah, it was an awesome show. Afterwards, I asked John if "Forever You" was about eggo waffles, and he said "what!?" like I was crazy or something. So, I guess it's not. lol.

[lithiumxXxpixie]

Hollee, you have sexy friends. ;) And oh my GAWD, John is hot. *dies*
haha that's me!!!! thanks for posting my pics Hollee! i really should have got on here a long time ago to talk about all this!

[dominicg51]

i was there.that consert kicked ass.i was about 15 feet from the stage.

[chimerical]

I live in EL paso and I am a FAN of EV...I was approx 4 rows back from the front of the stage.....It was my frst EV concert and let me just say....IT ROCKED!!! I had a small bet with a friend as to which song was gonna be played and...YUP I guessed right "Sweet Sacrifice"....Yay I was so happy, I was singing alongside al the songs they played....even from Fallen....Some people around me looked at me funny because I DID know all the words while they only knew some....

So I was having fun Finger Eleven was good but I was waiting for EV,....
Gotta say one thing.....Ms Amy Lee, you are very beautiful (hope she reads this) and don't know if you remember but I was the one that yelled out..."May the Force be With you!".....I had to represent the geeks, (I am not a complete geek but some of my friends think that I am)...I am completely STUNNED! I wish I could go to another show!... I did not miss any work but I did end up leaving two of my classes early....(Yay college).....

At the end of the show i also stayed for some autographs, I got both my Fallen CD and Open Door CD signed, and also one more thing, it was my birthday by the time that Amy got out to signing...The 20th of March, so I asked Ms Lee if she could give me my birhtday hug, and I got it....she is so short...I mean I am 6 feet tall and so she kinda is shorter than myself...as well as many other girls.....So let me say(if you are reading, Ms Lee) Thank you and one more thing....I got my shirt signed by Amy Lee!!!...I will cherish it for the rest of my life!!! I was really waiting all that time for Amy and was just about ready to leave(the long trip back home would be hard) but I decided to stay and I am really glad that I did.....Thank You AMY!!!!

Thats my story, just had to let someone know......Also I have started wrtiting songs and as such posted some on the forums...Please visit and leave any comments about my songs....also there are some graphics there....
