Beginning or end

Post by Yorkshire Lad »

Is the "buzz" better just before the start of an L C concert because of the anticipation or at the end because of the fulfilment or are they just different .

The buzz at the end is pretty awesome, since the concert exceeds all expectations (even the really high ones!), and leaves one feeling better than one could possibly have imagined! How often in life does that happen?

At the beginning you have the anticipation, at the end of concert the buzz for me is tinged with sadness that it's all over, and who know when I'll see him again :( Maybe during the concert is the best feeling of all :D

I definitely agree about the end of the concert especially given Leonard's age and the fact that it is a pretty sure thing that it will be his final tour . But then who knows Weybridge was a good example of it is never over until it is over .

No, no, no, here in Slovakia I want to see Leonard. For me sad when the end will also understand that Leonard has 75 years. I love Leonard eyes and voice. :( :cry: :cry:
