Wynonna Judd
Scenes From A Lifetime
The Milwaukee Theater
October 16, 2004
Age 21
My mom, although not a country fan, is a fan of Wynonna Judd. I think even more specifically, she was a fan of "No One Else On Earth", a great song that I am a fan of as well. When Wynonna came to town in 2004 my mom decided she wanted to see her and brought me along with.
This was my first time seeing a concert at the Milwaukee Theater. The theater is a lovely place, but there's something about it that seems more suitable to plays and presentations rather than concerts. It may be that I am more used to our other local theaters, the Riverside and Pabst, which seem more conducive to music, but the Milwaukee Theater is a bit to "open" in it's spacing for my musical watching taste.
Wynonna, however, was still great. The tour included songs from both her individual career and her time in The Judds, with her mother. She sounded exactly how she does on record, which is not always the case for so many singers. The show was a little more slower and low-key than the shows I had been going to, but was appropriate for the material. Of course "No One Else On Earth" was our favorite song of the night. Wynonna also talked a lot to the audience, explaining meanings behind songs, way more than in a typical concert. It was great to hear the meaning behind some of the songs. Overall she was a great performer and the following year she released a live recording of this tour on CD from her stop in Nashville.
P.S. I also totally love her red hair!
