    THIS SHOW IS WORTH THE MONEY

    there are very few artists worth paying $150 per ticket to see

    Neil is one of them and the electric set alone is worth the price of admission

    I saw an NYC gig and it was fantastic.

    The ticket for Milan show is 150 euros.
    I'm paying 100, best seats for Vienna gig :)
    And I believe he's worth it.

    The reviews have been very, very good. I can't wait. They were talking about someone on the side of the stage painting a picture for each song?

    I'm hoping for Cortez the Killer. :D

    See whoever tomorrow.... remember the drinks before!

    The artist is in the back to the left (can see him paint if you've got the right seats, but lots of different objects in the way so might be blocked from some people's views), he then bought out the painting for each song of the electric set (Pegi's set had a "P" throughout, and Neil's acoustic set had an "N" throughout, then electric set had different paintings. Not sure if it's the same every night or what. The Loner had a plane flying in the sky and The Believer had a silhouette (sp?) of a horse's head, but can't remember the rest.

    How cool! Looking at the setlists... Cortez is a bit of a rarity.... maybe tomorrow will be the day :D
  • PegasusPegasus Posts: 3,754
    I'm probably going to regret asking, but did everyone stayed stupidly glued to their seat the whole show or was there some life at least during the electric set?
    (thanks to Rob selling me his now spare at bargain price, I'm going too :o)

    edit, just in case I wasn't clear enough: were people standing?
