Thanks for the vids! It was my first time seeing her and the show was phenomenal. I was pretty much front row and couldn't believe she was a mere foot away from me. Very happy I got Written on the Forehead and ITD? The crowd didn't want to leave and was demanding an encore. I spoke with a musician that met Polly when they were in Europe. She said she was very polite but super intense. She said someone came up to her once and asked for a selfie, and Polly respectfully smiled and said "I don't do selfies". She was at dinner once and Polly was at the next table. Once Polly finished her dinner, she asked to speak to the chef and personally thanked him for the meal. Useless info but thought I'd share. I will never forget this night.

This was the first time seeing her as well. Will be at the Washington DC show in July. Been my favorite artist since hearing Sheela Na-Gig in '92. Teared up when they hit the stage, caught me by surprise.

I was at this show Saturday night and it was spectacular. I had seen/heard some of the other concerts from overseas that have been shared online, so I was happy that she changed up the order and threw in a few different songs, including Written on the Forehead and To Talk to Her. She even did the Guilty b-side as the first song of her encore. It was my first time at the National in Richmond; great place to see a show!

^ Glad you guys had a great time. It was so lovely being surrounded by PJ fans in a sold out show in Richmond. I saw people with TBYML, and Rid of Me tshirts, and heard people discussing their favorite albums. I was in heaven.

I put a couple of video snippets on my instagram, I didn't record a lot and wanted to enjoy the show: https://www.instagram.com/p/BTPf0NElmMm/

I had my Rid of Me shirt on.

Did you get a hug from a crazy person that admired your shirt, and accidentaly slapped your friend in the face?
