Pinnacle Bank Arena was the place to be on this night! Dorothy served as the opening act for they guys in Godsmack. I was super disappointed this past summer when Dorothy made her way through Lincoln on her own headlining tour. Not only was I not able to make it to the show, I wasn’t even in the country when she made her stop at the Bourbon Theater. So, to have the opportunity to see her now, was a great redemption for me.
I’ve been following Dorothy since the release of her first album “ROCKISDEAD”, released back in 2016. I guess you can say that I’m a big fan. I have done a few meet and greets with her and she’s always very accommodating to the fans. She signed a few photos that I had taken for me. It’s not always a great experience when you meet some of your favorite rock stars, but Dorothy has never let me down.
As for the show, she was amazing as always. Her voice is one the best you will here. And it filled up the arena like it was made for it. Dorothy’s band is always top notch too. She kicked off her set with her standard opener, Down to the Bottom, which is a perfect song to start off with. This set list was a little different than what I heard the last time I saw her, there were a few staples missing. But the songs she added were a great fit too. She sang The Devil I Know, Gun In My Hand, Rest In Peace, and Dark Nights. All great songs. Then closed the set with a new favorite, Elevate. You should definitely give it a listen.
It was great to be able to catch her again, and you can be sure it won’t be my last time. Always worth the effort to see her perform. If you love rock and roll with a touch blues, then you will love Dorothy. Her voice just keeps getting better and better. If you have not given her a listen, I’m telling you that you are missing out. And this tour is great opportunity to check her and her band out. You will not be disappointed!
