I lost my favourite ring! 
I didn't realize it until Dh and I got home, that it was gone. I think my hands were numb from all the clapping and that's why I didn't notice. I've had that ring for 20years and only took it off for cleaning. I have no idea how I could have lost it unless maybe the shank broke and it worked it's way off with clapping so much. I called the John Labatt Centre first thing this morning and the receptionist put me through to a woman who handled this but I got voice mail, instead. I left a message but no one called me back, so well over an hour later, I decided to drive back to London. They were of little help, saying that a thorough cleaning is done after the show and nothing had been turned in. What I had wanted to do was to go and check around my seat myself but they wouldn't let me into the arena, even with someone - crews were setting up for another concert tonight and the arena was considered a "construction zone"! I was really disappointed in their attitude and that someone couldn't have gone in to look around better. Our row was very clean when we left so how do I know that there was a "thorough" cleaning done? Of course, I know, "finders keepers" is always a possibility, but you never know. There's a possibility that it could have fallen off on the walk back to the car too. The moral is to make sure you have everything before you leave!
Aside from that, the concert was great, although loud. It started with The Village People, who had the whole audience up doing YMCA the "correct" way
, at the end of their set. I'm not a huge Cher fan but I've enjoyed her through the years as she's from my generation, and thought this was something I shouldn't miss. Except for losing my ring, I'm glad I went. I've read that she's "finally" ending her Farewell Tour at the Hollywood Bowl at the end of this month.

So sorry, hope you find it, maybe it will show up and not have been lost at the concert after all? You will always remember this concert, but for the wrong reason 
A friend of mine saw Cher too, thought the concert was amazing, her husband wished there had been more singing and less costume changes though LOL.
I did leave them my name and number, as well.
his concerts!
