I was so jealous of everyone who posted their awesome pictures of their MLP Live visits, and while I was away from home on a petrology field trip, my boyfriend called and said that his bandmate's girlfriend saw a commercial for MLP Live. (Now I checked and checked the cities being visited by MLP Live, and I didn't ever see any dates for the Southeastern US. Once when it was already too late I saw a date in Memphis.)

I was so upset that I missed the show in Memhpis, and then it was going to Texas, so I gave up thinking it would ever come back this way again. Wellllll, Amber told my boyfriend she saw a commercial for it and that it was coming to Vicksburg, MS (which is only 45 miles (about an hour) away from here!) AWESOME! I was so excited to hear that.

Well, I talked with Amber about it and we decided to go together. I got us the tickets, and she brought her adorable baby boy, Vesper (who absolutely had a blast, by the way. He danced and jumped and was wide-eyed during the entire show!)

So I was extremely excited to be able to go. I loved the show- it was one of the most exciting and stress-free events of my life! I saw all these little girls having the times of their lives too. They all had either a plush or a light-up wand and were waving them around during the show. (It reminded me of LSDed-out folk at their favorite concert with their lighters! ) :lol:

Anyway, like I said, the show was awesome, and the songs were great. It was just like being in one of the movies. So I wanted to share some of the highlights and the funnier parts worth mentioning from the show in Vicksburg.

Here are some photos (and I mean a LOT of photos):

flier.jpg

Flier (which I wanted to take, but didn't because there was a show the next day. Oh, also there were tons of security guards around! ;) )

castcopy.jpg

Cast. I was wondering if it was the same touring cast. I'll have to check back on the show pictures posted from the Northeast to see.

vendors.jpg

Gloriously drool factory that is the vending booth.
I picked up several tea sets for members here and also a bunch of loot for myself which I'll show a picture of at the end. Needless to say I spent tooooo much money going to this. I don't have that much buyers remorse, however, as it's a once in a lifetime kind of thing.

floatingponies.jpg

Floating ponies! I apparently took the photo right as they were both jumping.

ladybugs.jpg

Tropical ladybugs. "Chink chink chinkle and che che chee, hear our voices riiiing!" For some reason the ladybugs thought it would be funny to steal Spike's Book of "How To".

ponyshadow2.jpg

Enormous pony shadows!!! At my venue if the ponies got close to the edge of the stage they cast gigantic shadows on the walls. Hopefully you can judge the scale by the exit doors.

postoffice.jpg

The Ponyville post office. Adorable. I wish the post office I frequented was even slightly like this one!

stamps.jpg

Minty couldn't find the stamps. Hahah. Everyone was laughing at her because they were stuck on her rump. Of course in the picture you can see the face Pinkie makes whenever she says, "Minty, Minty, Minty!" She did say it, by the way, right at that moment.

intermission.jpg

Intermission. Girls were dancing with their plushies, balloons, wands, and pennants! It was adorable.

discodash.jpg

"Disco Dash" A song about trying to find the perfect boa for Rainbow Dash to wear, even though she's already pretty without one!

discodash1.jpg

The light show was amazing!

DJ.jpg

Spike DJed and did a little hip hop for us!

unicornia.jpg

Unicornia. Rarity said the World's Biggest Tea Party could be held at Unicornia. They took a balloon to the Crystal Rainbow Castle, of course! How else would they travel?

teapot.jpg

After Spike found his book, he found the poem you have to recite to make magic happen and create the world's biggest teapot. This is when you wave your paper teacup around and around and say, "Pinkies up!"

pspedmesmallredeye.jpg

My and a few other collectors' loot after the show at home in front of my boyfriend's drum kit! :lol:

I love the soccer ball and the pennant. But I can't wait to open up one of those plushies. I don't have a pony plushie yet, so I'm really very excited about it! Oh yeah, I forgot to say! Seaflower went with me, but I didn't get a chance to have my picture taken with her. Amber was busy with her baby, and everyone was rushing about trying to buy things for their kids! I don't know if you can see in the picture, but of course my pinkie is up! "Pinkies up!"

Thanks for looking. Hope you enjoyed. I have more pictures if anyone wants to see more just PM me.
 
Sweet pics! I got to go with some of my friends on this board, but we couldn't get pics like that. It was so cute!
 
Wow!!!!!!!
You must have had soooo much fun!
I'm so jealous!!!
I wish they could come here too.... :(
 
Thanks, princessluna!

I'm sorry, UnicornGusty. I hope maybe one day they get international tour dates set up. I know how it feels to think you can't go.
 
That was great, Claire. :D I missed it when it came to Lexington - I hope they have another in the future, though. ^-^
 
I wish I had known it was coming to Vicksburg! We could have met! I went in Shreveport before I they put up the Vicksburg date on the site. I go to Vicksburg all the time to the casino. Wow, I wish I could've bought a lot of stuff like that!! But our cash flow was extremely dry.
 
Aww, Ajcoecoe, it's too bad you missed it. I hope you get to see it one day- you could take your nieces. They would love it!

LOL at Wisp! Are you a gamblin' gal? Hehehe. Aww, it would have been cool if we could have gone together and talked ponies and squeed at the merchandise together. I bet we'd team up and get all the ponies' autographs!
Yeah, my cash flow is dry right now too. I haven't been working as much as I normally do due to so much school work lately. I had to get some money out of my savings. :shock: But I thought it was worth it.


Update! A strange thing has happened. Ok, so the MLP Live show was Tuesday night. Well, today at work I had to go out in the field to deliver some equipment to these guys... in Vicksburg! So I stopped by the Vicksburg Convention Center to see if the flier was still up, and with the best of luck, it was! So I got the flier in the end. *SCORE!* :lol:
 
Wow SSClaire! Thanks for posting! Your pictures are almost as good as being there for those of us who haven't seen it! I would have gone crazy with all the merchandise. And the soccer ball...Love it! Congrats on scoring the flier as well! I'm glad you had a good time.
 
Thank you Jljb!
I am glad you enjoyed looking at the photos!
I love the soccer ball too! It's very tiny in person, and very soft.
