Having some trouble with her earpieces during the show, she joked that the devices were "fitted pre-baby…they don't fit anymore!"

She gushed of her little girl and boy: "Do you love them babies? Cause I do. . . I really wanted to bring them here tonight, but Monroe is sometimes shy and takes a while to warm up to an audience. Rock and roll! Nah, but it's late. It's time for them to be asleep."

Regardless, in abstentia, she dedicated "Always Be My Baby" to her kids.
