Re: CONCERT REPORT: Bournemouth UK - Monday 26 August 2013

I actually liked hearing some of the new songs as well as the classics. I love 'Old Ideas' . I did notice Sisters of Mercy was missing, which was a shame, but it didn't spoil it for me. I think one of my highlights was Sharon Robinson singing 'Alexandra Leaving' -absolutely beautiful. We had great s...

Re: PRESALE TO THE UK SHOWS

Whoever buys that will be next to us - we have seats in Block B, Row C. seats 40 and 41 but can't think of anyone who might want to join us, sadly. Hope you sell it! Anyone looking for a good Bournemouth ticket? I have one spare ticket in Block B, row C, seat 42 which is close to the centre aisle. C...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Weybridge, July 11

Thanks for the comments and I think you are both right about the set list. I have gone back to Maarten's lists and think I must have miscounted so will amend that bit. One of the reasons for publishing the link was so that people could point out any mistakes. I think I was looking at the previous se...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Weybridge, July 11

I wonder if anybodys got First We Take Manhattan on video? I wanna see Leonards reaction to the crowd joining him in shouting "THEN WE TAKE BERLIN!" I hope we can help. We shot some of First We Take Manhattan - mostly for fun so expect poor framing, camera shake, and views of people danci...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Weybridge, July 11

Just for fun we did a couple of quick 360 videos of the crowd, stage and auditorium - shot from seat 92/93 of Row P of Block A5. We were in good company with lots of forum folk nearby :D The first clip is of a very thin "Early" crowd taken just 15 mins before Suzanne Vega came on stage. He...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Weybridge, July 11

Here are two video clips of the sound check for Lover Lover Lover - since he rehearsed this but sadly didn't play it during the concert. The quality isn't brilliant - we were some distance away on the other side of the fence and it is affected by wind and chatter! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mfm...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Weybridge, July 11

We left Weymouth at 1030 to allow plenty of time as we had heard dire reports of traffic congestion before last year's MBW concerts. We arrived just after 2pm (so no delays getting in, just delays getting out) and were fortunate enough to hear Leonard's live sound check. There weren't many of us the...

Re: CONCERT REPORT: Weybridge, July 11

Yesterday's concert was amazing! So much better than Bournemouth and possibly even better than the first O2 concert because the atmosphere was electric. The dreadful weather seem to unite everyone but we barely noticed the rain and didn't start to feel cold or wet till we got back to the car and had...

Re: Weybridge, July 11 - on general sale

On the subject of tickets - I went to a large concert on Tuesday of this week - June 16th (tickets purchased in October) and Ticketmaster didn't post them out until Wednesday 10th June so we got them on Thursday 11th. There were updates on our account section of ticketmaster saying what date they wo...

Re: A Very Special Announcement Coming

My husband tells me that Genesis did something along the lines of a webcast question and answer session with a live audience to launch their 'When in Rome' DVD so I was wondering if it was something of that sort, as it would fit Jarkko's suggestion that only a small number of members would be able t...

Re: A Very Special Announcement Coming

I reckon it's a live /interactive webcast , perhaps a question and answer session- available for everyone watch to but only a few lucky forum members will get the chance to ask their questions. So Monday's date will be telling us about it and the second date will be the date of the actual webcast. C...

Re: Bournemouth 11 November

I agree with all that Hydriot has said. The audience were quite quiet but I think this is because everyone was over awed and were there to appreciate the music. After all if you are listening to the Master singing, you don't need to join in and you just want to savour every note. Listening to the cm...
