Top 3 Performance Show: Haley's Homecoming

8:12 We’re back…Tour plug…Haley’s homecoming is first…To Chicago…Haley walks past the limo not realizing it’s her…On her way to Wheeling, her actual hometown. The weather is nasty…Parade in Wheeling…She tells one fan, “Thank you for freaking out”…She’s got a pretty good crowd for the weather…She teases her bodyguard about crying…Meeting with her family…Why are they playing “Secrets”? That makes it sound kind of ominous…Parade to her high school. The crowd is a little sparse here…And now the tears she didn’t want come…A sign at her high school says, “Goldilocks rocks.” I like that…“Hello World” from Lady Antebellum. Great song. That video makes me cry every time…Concert at the same park where Lee DeWyze performed…“Sweet Home Chicago”…Haley says 30,000 people were there…Haley’s security guy, Aaron, is on stage with tissues…After the break…

It’s hard to judge Haley’s support from that because of the rain, but it didn’t look that good…
