    Did Thom Yorke join Roger Waters on stage? I hear those two have been getting along really well lately. ;)

    My girlfriend had her PJ Wrigley shirt on. During intermission, I said I really hope he comes on for Comfortably Numb. She looked at me and laughed (which isn't that unusual). Said she didn't think it would happen and I shouldn't get my hopes up. Just off the cuff, I replied that it might because he's probably going to be at Wrigley Monday and Tuesday. She just laughed at me again. 

    I gotta say, I felt like a lot of people really didn't know what was going on (or maybe didn't know who EV was). I thought the reception would have been balls out! But really I didn't give a flying pig....I mean fuck (those in attendance get the pun). My biggest bucket list collaboration was the two of them singing what they sang. It was great. Now I gotta come up with a new #1.

    I said the same thing...without trying to be biased (hard to do). The dude can flat out sing. It was a terrific job.
