This tour, which is set to be her last, was all about her greatest hits; Twain fans delighted in loudly singing their old favorites along with her.<\/p>\n<p>What really added to the vocals and instruments were the lights and pyrotechnics; \u201cI\u2019m Gonna Getcha Good\u201d was full of flames shooting out of the stage heating up the night (literally). Even though during some parts of the costume changes the audience was kept entertained by fabulous violin or guitar solos, there were some moments where it was just darkness, which took away some of the night\u2019s energy.<\/p>\n<p>One thing, besides the amazing singing, that impressed me was the way Twain connected with the fans throughout the show. She talked with the audience, signed a couple T-shirts, and, when she found out two audience members had birthdays that day, sang \u201cHappy Birthday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This show was, in a word, amazing. Twain is set to retire from the touring life soon; seeing her live is easily worth a road trip before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being a Shania Twain fan since I was a little kid, I was very excited for her recent concert at Save-on-Foods Memorial Centre and had high expectations for the whole night.
