I'm up very late, just got back from the concert at Casino Rama in Rama, ON....just north of Toronto. Tanya put on a fantastic show & she looked beautiful, she's lost a ton of weight, had on skin tight black leather pants, & joked that she couldn't sit down in them when she wanted to sit on a stool to do her 'Medley'...she called them her 'Satan Pants'...too funny! She had her truly funny moments & also very poignant moments like when she sang 'Two Sparrows In A Hurricane' & talked about losing her Dad....she had a really tough time getting thru this song. When she did '(Without You) What Do I Do'...she said, 'I used to sing this song to a man, now I sing it to my Dad'. She mentioned her new music she's cutting & said it will be out soon, as for the fate of Tuckerville, it doesn't sound too promising, she said they might do more, wasn't sure though.

I managed to get a M & G, which was very fast, they had a professional photographer there taking pictures, .There were NO cameras allowed & she didn't sign any autographs. My Son managed to sneak a couple pics right at the end of the show on his digital, but they didn't turn out good enough to post. NOBODY was taking any photos, as they made an announcement before the show that no cameras of any kind were allowed! All In all  it was a great night cameras or not! Anyway, here's the set list in no particular order:

1. Some Kind Of Trouble

2. I'll Come Back As Another Woman

3. It Won't Be Me

4. Old Weakness (Coming On Strong)

5. (Without You) What Do I Do With Me

6. Strong Enough To Bend

7. Hangin' In

8. A Picture Of Me (Without you) Here she talked about George Jones & what a good friend he is & how much she loved cutting the song for 'God's Country'.
