That's how it was at the show I attended last year. Almost the entire floor were 20-somethings.

As long as church groups don't start showing up I think it's all good.

there is an Our Lady Of Peace church in alot of cities. I went to the one in Honolulu last year cause one of the fathers( Damian) was made a saint. It was a big deal. He is the saint of Leapers..

Very beautiful church. I saw a mass while there.. I love going house of worship and just taking in all of it.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

What surprised me was that almost everyone on the floor on SM night were are from the ages 19-27 from what I gathered.


It would seem to me that even here on the CM that there are signs of the aging fan base...marriages, babies and even some discussion about the preferred flooring to have in your home. :duncan: I wasn't here when the CM started, but I'm hazarding a guess those were not hot topics.

Especially on this tour it did not surprise me to see the fans who were teenagers 10+ years ago, but I also like seeing the younger crowd there too.

According to the Hour's website, Raine is on tonight (May 19th) and Billy is tomorrow (May 20th). It must of been changed because it did say Thursday at one time - so just a little schedule update for those who are going to watch.

Yes it is, but I sometimes have problems finding shows that I know should be on there...but maybe I'm just dumb. :roll:

This is confusing. Billy said she was recording the show tonight but now her Facebook page says this:

"Soooo apparently The Hour is airing live tonight? 11pm! Tune in."


So did they change it again because the episode with Raine would have to already be recorded. ODD

OK, Billy says she's tomorrow so it looks like tonight is Raine! The web site update is correct. That was more confusing than it needed to be!
