Kathy's Philadelphia Review
August 21, 1998

The Philly Concert was by far the best day of my life. Thru the internet pre-sale I got 15th row center. {Let's just say that was another great day.} Well, on my to the concert Q-102 {a philly radio station} was having a mini-interview with the guys from their hotel room and that certainly was a great way to get your adrenilen pumping. After about 20 minutes we arrived at the Corestates Center and we walked over to where their buses went in. We saw the famous Hanson bus and some other buses. {Maybe Admiral Twin's?} Needless to say nothing exciting happened. My sister and I went to our seats wich were by the way better then I could ever imagine. Admiral Twin came on around 8'clock and played a half hour set. They were really good and I have to say Jarrod Gollihare is mighty fine! The guy with the really curly hair was all over the place dancing and moving to the music. When they went off at 8:30 we waited until 9 for Hanson to come out.They all were looking pretty good! I loved Isaac's shiny pants! They played this new song called "Sunshine of Your Love." I loved that song. It had a very catchy tune and beat. Anyways, in the begining Walker was up there taping the boys like always, and all of a sudden you see him fall off the stage! You could see Taylor's expression of like, "Oh, my god!" Then after that he sort of smiled and laughed.They did not play "Money" though. Some of the highlights were Taylor playing the drums. He went behind Zac and was pointing down, like asking if he should play. With that he pushed Zac away and started playing while, Zac ran around squirting everyone. Zac's very "flashy" drum sticks and Isaac sliding across the stage were also some highlights. During "Summer time Blues" Ike stopped playing guitar and took over the keyboards while, Tay took the microphone and asked us to sing along. At the very end they performed "Wierd" accapella. One very disgusting thing that happened at the show was, 3 rows in front of us, 3 girls not only once but, TWICE flashed Hanson. May I remind you we were very close to the stage and they had a very good chance that the guys saw them. Let's just hope they didn't! To end off my incredible night, my sister was on the news because at Corestates news people were there. Hey, she was on the news for HANSON! That finished my night. I got my pics back and you can see them in every one but they are really not that good. Oh well, I had fun and that's all that counts!
