I unfortunately didn't have anything to take down the setlist, but it seems to be identical to the Victoria and Vancouver shows (for the main set). In the first encore, she definitely did The Rose, Parasol, and Wake Up, but I'm sure she did a 4th song (it just wasn't Willow).

Then for the second encore, she ended up doing Abide with Me. Interesting little story about that... back when she was doing her "church tour" a few years back, and playing that song almost every night, there was a blizzard in Winnipeg the day of her show and it was cancelled. More than anything, I always regretted not being able to see her perform that hymn live (it's such a beautiful tune -- I just adore it). At the beginning of her set, I was thinking how at the next opportunity I get to speak with Sarah, I should mention to her how I've never heard that one live yet, and that she should add it in every now and then. Or at least once while in Winnipeg. :P Then, the second encore comes along and she frickin' plays it! Seriously, even though I was at the very back of the balcony in the venue (so not exactly the best seats), this was my favourite moment out of 6 or 7 Slean shows I've seen.

It was a great show last night! I was lucky enough to snag second pew seating right in front of the piano and it was the perfect spot to see Sarah.

In the first encore she played Sweet Ones as well.

It was great to meet you last night Paul! Enjoy your next dose of Slean!

Right! How could I forget? I've never heard the crowd sing so much of a song before (well, this side of a Bon Jovi show, anyway :P).

'Twas nice meeting you as well!

Interesting how Willow was on the set list but she did Sweet Ones instead (unless I'm a complete idiot, I don't recall her doing Willow). And that there was no second encore planned.

ETA: Great photos, Joel! Wish I had pulled out my camera during the show, or even better, brought my "good camera" along. Hopefully I can get in with it at the Winnipeg show.
