Welch was sporting a drab, flowing dress that resembled a print in a pediatrician's office, and her band barely moved behind her. It appeared that this fan was transfixed by Welch's voice, which is about as pitch-perfect and powerful as one gets. "Are you okay?" her friend shouted above the pounding drums. The girl nodded without taking her eyes away from the stage.
