They didn't cut any part of Rose's Turn - Patti skipped around a little last night and cut a section by accident. There were a couple technical problems and missed cues last night, nothing to get all riled up about.
Most of the cuts I was like "wait a second wasn't that supposed to be..." but the Rose's Turn... cut is weird.
I could NOT for the life of me tell you what it is that is gone because both times I've seen it I've been too busy flipping out because Patti is so amazing.
BUT there is always a moment in the song when the music in my head is one place and Patti is another and it gives me a jolt, so something is for sure missing.
I know that sounds stupid that I can't remember what it is but I just get so sucked in.
Now what would you say if today I started over?
Without a thing but this taped together four leaf clover
And I'll pretend like everything is already alright
And I'll run toward the sun till the castle's out of sight
""I understand the "Hold your hats and hallelujah/Mama's gonna show it to ya" was cut.""
YES YES YES THAT'S IT!
And then like the music that comes right after.

I'll be there this Friday and again on the 29th. There's one more performance I'll attend, but the tickets haven't been purchased pending my friend's availability.
I went last night and there's a chance I'm going back tomorrow night. People think I'm insane. I was kind of surprised how easy it was to get tickets, though. I went and bought a front gallery ticket (all I can afford) at 4:30 and got second row.
