Orlando, October 20: Were you there?
We can't believe it's the first show of the last full weekend on the Incredible Machine Tour, but we're so glad we could spend it with you, Orlando! Never did make it to your Harry Potter theme park -- save us some butterbeer for next time? -- but you were better than any ride they coulda built, and we loved looking out at all your smiling faces tonight, all the way to the rafters. As Jennifer put it during the encore, you were SO much fun.
A special shout-out to the "Pink Brigade" in the Sugarpit, whose tutus and feather boas caught Jennifer's eye. "Is this a bachelorette party?" she asked. "Or breast cancer awareness?" When the ladies gave a thumbs up to that, Jennifer dropped what's probably the quote of the tour: "We love boobies! And we hate cancer!" You're free to borrow that for bumper stickers, t-shirts, what have you. We think it pretty much sums things up.
Were you here on this magical night in the Orlando Kingdom? We want to hear all about it, so use the comments and the forum to write your concert reports. Tell us about your evening! And save the boobies!

Great Show!!!! We saw you in Birmingham last year and knew we couldn't miss you in our home state this year! This was my son's 1st concert and he got to carry the LOVE flag. Such a cool experience for all of us! I have loved Sara B since she started up so we loved seeing her too. Good Luck in Indy-I think what you are doing is great!

'Incredible' show! You guys make it so entertaining despite everything that has happened! I never left my feet! I got my tickets in June and when the day finally came, I was speechless! I was calling my friend who couldn't make it and she said it sounded so good even over the phone! I would have to agree! Jennifer and Kristian make me laugh and I like how they interacted with the crowd! I cried when you guys sang "Stay" and I couldn't stop smiling when Kristian gave the guitar to the little girl and when the boy walked the arena with the Love flag! It was definitely my favorite concert to date! Love you guys! I will definitely be going to your concerts from here on out! :)

Very fun, very awesome show. Had a blast the entire time! Was just a few feet from the stage. Sara Bareilles was hilarious, and has such a beautiful voice. Sugarland was so high energy that I didn't know where to point my camera most of the time. Two of my favorite artists--what a lineup! In general, the crew was very gracious. Whitney who checked in the Sugarpass members was extremely courteous and a great character! :) I was extremely satisfied with my experience. Definitely must see again! (and yes, pit is the way to go!)

I was there last night in the Sugar Pit with 3 friends. YOU ALL WERE AMAZING!! We loved the show. Your energy is infectious and your personalities shine through in your music! Thanks for coming to Orlando and entertaining us. We took lots of pictures and will definitely look forward to seeing you all back in the Sunshine State again in the future. My 6 year old daughter looks forward to coming into the Sugar Pit with me when she's a little older. Keep writing amazing music. We love you!!
Sara Bareilles was a great addition to the tour. She was fantastic as well!!

was there last night in the pit, awsome concert. They always put 100% in and it shows... I know jen said "we love boobies" but watchins kristian's face I believe he did to, because he had a very large smile on his face.......The stage was different due to this mishab that happen but it didn't change the show they still put on a awsome show. I have attented 3 concerts on this tour and would of attented more if $$$$ had been there. I can't wait to see what the next tour will be this one was awsome!!!!!!!! SUGARLAND ROCKS
