Olivia treated audiences to a brilliant performance at the opening of her 2001 tour in Reno. Celebrating 30 years of music the tour opened with a photo show taking us through Olivia's career (an up to date of the one featurd in her Physical concert video). Each tour Olivia enjoys herself more, this time she brimmed over with confidence and fun.

The first half of this tour featured her daughter Chloe Rose showcasing her unique singing talent and performing a duet with Olivia from their TV movie Wilde Girls. Chloe was given a extremely warm welcome by the crowds! Olivia treated us to some favorites including the wonderful Trust Yourself, Come On Over and The Promise from the Physical album. This track is particularly poignant in view of the current threat to marine life from the Low Frequency Active Sonar project, which Olivia mentioned before this song on her early concerts.

Sept 13 Victoria Theatre, Dayton, OH

This was Olivia's first appearance after the dreadful World Trade Center disaster in NYC on Sept 11th, 2001. Later on, Olivia remembered having to drive there, separated from her band, as there were no planes. They had a minute of silence to remember the dead and there was a feeling of unity.
