以下為 7:55寫下的紀錄。
話說因為嚴重延遲，演唱會到相當於8:45才開始。
沒有看到什麼大牌的，不過後來George有說某某好像很有名的人在包廂看（？）
是說包廂可是套裝起來要660米金呢（抖）
已經坐立難安半小時了，感想在剛剛錄下的影片裡，可以理解為什麼B座位比A好 XD
可是這位置真的是對我來講超合適的啊感謝我家乖土方＊親親
啊啊有種感動到快哭的感覺，好生羨慕在搖滾特區的人啊！
＃往前走10排就是舞台正前方（呆）
我記得那時拿著票走進去就覺得「喔、好近」，而工作人員居然還帶著我走過20排到我的位置時我還大叫「OMG！」XD
我坐在走道旁第一個位置，於是我比旁人多了一個通道的位置可以跳舞，也因為這是第一排所以腳底下有踏板，比前面的人高一點，不用怕因為矮被擋得太厲害。
想想我當初就差點要買到其他位置了，真的是差一個、天壤之別。
感謝我家好土方～～這A14的位置太棒了＊
現場保安好像沒啥作用的說，我在賭等等會不會擋攝影（應該會XD）
有情侶有朋友也有攜家帶眷，我看那金髮正太一臉迷惑，他生錯年代了吧XD
太太你家兒子不會懂這種少女的心情的啦！
才剛看完一個過份的就又一個更過份的，推著嬰兒車的爸爸還坐搖滾特區！
先生你家小孩耳膜會破掉吧這麼沒有常識的事情居然做得出來OTL
怪的是差五分鐘還沒入場一半的樣子，今天鐵定延遲吧（思）
坐在最頂層的是傳說中的包廂，讓我想到哥哥（心）
然後，正在思考要不要留下犯罪證據（因為我往上報說我買的是四區的票、70米金）
現在突然播放了快樂頌，是薰的歌。
我笑得好開心，是的，薰一直跟我在一起，害羞的哥哥有他自己的包廂，而我，跟L在一起。
What a happy family, I Love You ALL.
PS.面前有我猜是義大利追來的外國人三枚，而且還超囂張地穿著25 live EUROPE字樣的T-shirt，有囂張XDD
FANCAM，記者訪問GM的FANS，可以看到真的很受男和女的歡迎（大笑）
Georgy能這樣男女通吃真的不簡單啊XDDDDDDDDD

George Michael
(Madison Square Garden; 17,400 seats; $274.50 top)
Presented by Live Nation.
Opened and reviewed July 21, 2008; also July 23.
Band: George Michael, Chris Cameron, Danny Cummings, Phil Palmer, Andy Hamilton, Steve Walters, Mike Brown, Carlos Hercules, Graham Kearns, Luke Smith, Lincoln Jean-Marie, Jay Henry, Shirley Lewis, Lori Perry, Sharon Perry, Lucy Jules.
By DAVID SPRAGUE
Not all that long ago, George Michael couldn't get arrested -- in the figurative sense, that is -- on this side of the Atlantic, but at the first Gotham gig of what he's described as his farewell tour, the singer showed he's still blessed with formidable crowd-pleasing talents. Singer's two-hour, two-set perf at a sold-out Madison Square Garden covered his entire career, from a kicky, winking take on Wham's "I'm Your Man" (delivered with enough zest to make old-school fans forgive the omission of nuggets like "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go") to a winsome rendition of the power ballad "An Easier Affair."
Like Rod Stewart, whose propensity for showmanship he shares, Michael has found it relatively easy to shift gears in middle age, compensating for the loss of some upper register by tweaking songs like "One More Try" into more hospitable keys. And while he made a few self-deprecating comments about having lost a step as far as moves go, he managed to command the venue's spacious stage just fine on his own -- with his touring band stacked on risers set to the side.
Michael has always had odd taste in covers, as he reaffirmed here by peppering the program with a passel of songs that didn't exactly play to his strengths. A jazzy, pensive take on the Police's "Roxanne" -- almost unrecognizable for the first few bars -- was intriguing enough, but Michael's version of Nina Simone's "Feeling Good" served mostly to prove that, well, he's no Nina Simone.
Other than that minor slip-up, the singer came across as thoroughly self-aware and good humored, even going so far as to slip into a police uniform for "Outside," a song that addressed his long-ago arrest for an outdoor sexual peccadillo. That provided a well thought out coda to a smartly paced show and indicated that, warnings to the contrary, Michael might still have plenty of fight left in him.

擷取這篇的重點是、他有統計數字！
我以為那天晚上大概4K、最多5千人（我知道看起來完售了），可是我萬萬沒想到我目測的數字跟實際的竟然差了四倍多！（抖）
也就是、是17400座位售空XD
GJ啊！Georgy！！

HE REPAYS FAN FAITH WITH AN UNEVEN SHOW
By DAN AQUILANTE
July 23, 2008 --
IF you don't believe that absence makes the heart grow fonder, then you should have been at pop crooner George Michael's comeback concert at Madison Square Garden Monday.
At the nearly sold-out concert, the first of a two-show series that concludes tonight, the crowd was totally nuts for Michael and his music that runs the gamut from rock to schlock.
Gay men, packs of girls and their drag-along dates all gave the arena's concrete floors a workout, literally making it bounce to the beat of hits like "Freedom" (played during the second encore call) and his ultra-catchy pop tune "Faith."
For his devoted fans - who've suffered his mediocre late career musical offerings as well as his run-ins with the law relating to sex and drugs - this gig reaffirmed why they kept the faith all this time. Michael is a fine singer with a strong gift for interpretation.
His cover of "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" - a slow, brooding ballad - was a powerhouse piece that showed off his range and his ability to be emotive.
But the minor original hits that were at best retro nods to his past were so dated and out of touch with contemporary music that you had to wonder why they were in the set at all.
Michael is a good singer, but his roller-coaster set list never established a flow and, surprisingly, lacked the sure-fire radio hits that made him a solo star; he's an act whose time seems past its shelf life.
The singer explained his 17-year absence from MSG, telling the house, "There are reasons - complicated, f - - - ed-up reasons - I haven't been back here that have nothing to do with being gay or being a complete idiot." He went on to say how he gave up stardom in America to engage in contract fights with his old record company, Sony.
C'mon, George. If your music were better, you would have maintained your stardom instead of becoming joke fodder for late-night talk-show hosts.
While the music was uneven, the production was not. The stage that extended to the center of the Garden's floor allowed him to play the arena in the round, offering even fans in the far seats a good view. It was smart and considerate. And the lighting that employed a huge, five-story state-of-the art LED video projection system was as good as it gets, approaching the level of technology Coldplay brought to the Garden earlier this summer.
Michael played more than 2½ hours. He'd be wise to tighten up the show, play more hits (even if they're covers) and ditch explaining where he's been - anybody who watches Letterman already knows.

這篇根據FANS來講是被抗議的（笑）
據說也被抗議了沒錯（有論壇上的FANS說他們立刻寫信抗議了XD）
我也要抗議：我可沒看過Letterman 啊！！！XD
他說的每一句話每一個字都很新鮮！！！！！
我轉這篇的重點是、他有我沒有聽清楚的致詞的部分XD
