Good news - I'd like to see some changes to her setlist though! I saw Streisand on the last tour and I was pretty amazed at the handle she has on her back catalogue. I'd really like Ross to do the same. I heard she did "I Ain't Been Licked" at her critically lauded 2004 show at the Pantages. Can anyone confirm that?

A little bit of I AIN'T BEEN LICKED was shown when Diana appeared on ACCESS HOLLYWOOD that year.

[Lulu]

She sang it or it was played on the snippet?

[reese]

I haven't seen it since then. But as I remember it, it was a very short clip from her Pantages show. I remember them playing the horn intro. It struck me because it was familiar, but was being played in a lower key than the record. I don't remember her singing it.

[Lulu]

Oh ok - I guess we'll have to wait and see for some new [[old) songs.

[JohnnyB]

Oh ok - I guess we'll have to wait and see for some new [[old) songs.

Yes, Diana did sing a full version of I Ain't Been Licked at the Pantages and other stops of her 2004 tour. The song opened the second segment of her shows, following her first costume change. What an incredible surprise it was...

[jobeterob]

Even if she has to stick with some favorites because they are so popular with the masses, for the fans it would be nice to see some changes ~ she could add back Endless Love, Good Morning Heartache or God Bless the Child, Mirror Mirror or Muscles, Missing You, Love is Like An Itching in My Heart, Reflections or Come See About Me. The Motown Medley of the old days would be welcome now!

[thanxal]

OK. I WILL go to her concert in Baltimore. I've seen Ms. Wilson twice. I'd love to see Ms. Birdsong, but her health doesn't seem great. I've seen Aretha and Ray and Ella. Can't wait to see la Diva.

[Jimi LaLumia]

Looking forward to the NYC show...FINALLY!.. she'll sell out right away and schedule more shows there..they should have just booked Madison Square Garden for her from the get-go!

[Lulu]

She was awesome at MSG the last time...I think it was April, 2007!

[smark21]

I like one of the comments on the page...I too hope she adds some twerking to her show.

[thanxal]

I too hope she adds some twerking to her show.

Dear God no. As one of the original members of the Supremes and an early Motown act, she has far too much class for that. Could you imagine Maxine Powell's reaction to such trashy behavoir?

OK..how about she re-does the scene in Mahogany where she drips candle wax on herself and does a nip slip?

Totally respectable

Twerking is real good excerise and keeps your buttocks real firm.

I like my Ross curvy! We had enough of those Twiggy years back in the day! LOL!

Yes she did the whole song on that tour. I also seen her in Sacramento, CA on this tour and she did the song. She also did "Reflections" and a few others that she doesn't hardly do.

Hi Rob... She does do "Come see about me" occasionally. She did it last year at the Hollywood Bowl. I wish she would do it all the time. It really is my favorite.

[supremester]

50 years of thrilling audiences has it's rewards: If Miss Ross chooses to twerk to Always In My Heart, [[He's) Seventeen, Endless Love or even One Night With You - I will personally join the happily glassy-eyed in demanding an encore! Twerk It, Baby - Twerk It!

[jobeterob]

I wish she'd do a song like He's 17!

[jobeterob]

Or I Want A Guy; so was awesome when she did that as a kid.

[Lulu]

Heck I'd settle for "It's My Turn" or a mix up from LSTB at this point! Gurl needs some variety!

[DianaLove]

I'd love "It's My Turn" to replace "Endless Love" for the end segment that leads into "Do You Know/Ain't No Mountain Medley" but that's probably wishful thinking as she doesn't even do "Endless Love" all the time anymore. How about "Breathtaking Guy" for a rare Supremes song? I love that one! Also anything from the "Take Me Higher" album she wants to put back in the set would be fine with me. "Only Love Can Conquer All" is a great closer.

[Jimi LaLumia]

Got my ticket for the front section at The Theatre @ Madison Square Garden...first day of summer..FABULOUS!!

[supremester]

Hey Jim - got my ticket yesterday as well - see you there!

[smark21]

Po' Diane, having to play in a gym basement. She's washed up. Her career is over. LOL! Yo' Momma!

[Lulu]

Great that she's going back to MSG. I saw her there in 2007 after several years of not going to shows. She was awesome, it was sold out, there were tons of celebs in the crowd. What more could a girl ask for?!? LOL!

[supremester]

It's true Chazzy - it's been all downhill since Blinstraubs - and now............... this. I hope I can smell The Rangers' locker room!

[jobeterob]

Well let's hope she can avoid Marv's basement doing backgrounds for Mary!

I see she is playing Casino Rama in Toronto July 2. Tickets not available yet though. Gotta Go there.

[supremester]

Last time she was there, she sold out both nights and they had all the back walls pulled for maximum capacity. Awesome place - she's doing two nights in Montreal after. Wish I could go Casino Rama is the perfect venue.

[jobeterob]

Not back in Vancouver though? It's been 4 years I think.

[supremester]

I'll bet you that she's back this summer. I loved those 2 shows in 2008.

Joseph: I am certain she will do SD this year......I will keep you boys posted. Meanwhile, I'm doing KC, Chicago x2 and White Buffalo for April, Albany, Worcester, NYC, Baltimore and Bethlahem, PA in June. I'm skipping the others so that people won't think I'm obsessive.

[Jimi LaLumia]

Ross is SERIOUSLY touring this year!!!..album? please, darling???

What obsessive? If I had the lettuce this rabbit Diana Ross fan would be hopping concert to concert.

[jobeterob]

Heck, I'll be lucky if I make one concert! But I have stood up for her on here, right???

Yes you have Rob, and I for one have appreciated it very much. And since I don't have the lettuce I'll be making it to just one concert myself.

[smark21]

White Buffalo? You must mean New Buffalo, a small town on Lake Michigan in SW Michigan with a casino and showroom.

[captainjames]

A lot of touring for 2014 and no sign of slowing down.

[supremester]

i'm eating lentils and have a kidney on Ebay to fund this tour. I just have a goodIt's some kind of Buffalo ..........a huge casino from what I heard so it must draw from a large, high falootin area with prices that high and rooms up to 500 per night. We're driving over from Chicago.

[jobeterob]

I appreciate that. I'll chop enough lettuce for one concert in western canada if she sings love is like an itching, especially in john's format.

[Jimi LaLumia]

she will conquer America again, just like she did in 1964!
