Whoo just got back. Even though I didn't know some songs it still went fast. He's such a great entertainer. (I did know more than I expected though, thanks to the new album.)
And even though it was sitting venue people still managed to crowd around the stage, making a pit. Hehe. It also allowed upwards of 20 people to attempt to or successfully stage invade. And I loved how he talked about the sites in town he went to (including the Science Museum, where my sister works. She was them mad that she didn't work today.) And at the end he said "God bless you. ... God bless ME!". Awesome~
And I LOVED the short clips of 60s and 70s songs and skits between bands. I really need to check out Shocking Blue. I only knew them from "Venus", but some of those clips were
awesome.
