Did someone in the Netherlands already recieve the merchandise packet which belongs to de ticket-de-luxe.
The compagnie who should take care for this, tuned-hospitality, does not react on e-mails too......?

Willem

Yes, he DID play crumblin'down in the Haque. So that was extra, don't think there were more.
For Berlin it is descriped for "cherry bomb" he only played the first verse. I'm sure in the Haque he did the whole song, lucky us!!
He also did 2 lines from "taxi dancer" and 1 song he started twice. Don't remember wich one..

Funny, Melatti, we are the same age I guess. I am from 1969.

Hi Melatti and all others,

Looking back on yesterday I just get more excited by the hour.

The film before the show was o.k I think. Not the best documentary I have ever seen but a nice way to warm up for the show. Maybe it took away some surprises.

I think John is realy into the sound and songs from his last album "No better than this" which I think is absolutely great.
The band plays fantastic. They can play embittered like in "the west end" but can rock too like in the last half hour.
If John just sings alone with his guitar he got the whole crowd quiet. Even now his voice was not at the very best I recon.

For me I wish he played the whole new album. I realy love the songs and sound. But I can understand people wanna hear the old stuff.

It was a touching moment when he took the boy on stage at "R.O.C.K. in the U.S.A", and later with his father (?) too.

I was sitting in the first line. A wonderfull happening. When the show was almost over I in John's direction wanted to shake hands to thank him for the show. And he grabbed it!!! For me a once in a lifetime experience, I got my chance and it feels great. (looks like I am acting like a 16 year old girl who meets her big idol...) It was just a way to say "thank you for your music" for me.
I just hope we, here in europe, don't have to wait another 19 years before he returns. for some shows. D-day was a appetite for more!!

Willem

Well, I guess we can shake hands.
I was there in the Haque 19 years ago both days too.
Great shows and my impression was that John and the band realy enjoyed themselves too.

I was surprised it took so long before they returned to europe.
Me too was thinking about going to see a show in the states if they had'nt come this year.

Looking forward to tomorrow!!!
(First row!!)

Groet, Willem
