What a gig !!!
I was pretty lucky to meet many fans, atmosphere was great...btw Coyote was played BEFORE PW.
Anyway the sound was very good, although with some echo - this O2 arena is the biggest hockey hall in Czech Republic.
The whole concert was seated, when Mark came on the stage (8:15 pm), he greeted us in Czech languange (Ahoj!) and he did some jokes during the concert....for example...."well, nice to be back, it is very nice to see you....I see you filming, it is not so nice to see you...." :)
And so on....talking about Disco-dancing, you know....
Every song was highlight for me. Except for beginning of Romeo, I couldn

Hey Danny!
Nice to read that you enjoyed the gig so much! I read it with pleasure and recognized many things from my shows - Mark indeed seems to be very tired when it comes to the encores, I had the same feeling.
But let me say: I visited your homepage, and I must say I am deeply impressed! I do not have a clue about (classical) music but I think you are a highly
talented and very gifted young musician, hats off to that! Mark probably would be deeply anxious and impressed when he was able to see AND HEAR that, I am very sure! This forum is a very interesting mix of all kinds of fascinating and astonishing people!
All the best to you!

The floral pattern shirt is back from the laundry! ;D
Only kidding. Nice pics, thanks for sharing!

:) Thanks for the nice report and pics Danny. Great to see the next generation have a few among them, with an ear for musical talent!!! ;)
The tiredness is the hidden killer with chronic back problems. I hope Mark's back is in better condition sooner than later, so that we can repeat this ("new CD - tour" in 2011-2012) at least one more time.

Tiredness is a key word. Mark is tired, he's done 61 shows. Isaac looked tired, I assume he's also done 61 shows. I am tired, I've done ... one show. :P
What a travel : I've spent something like 24 hours in public transportations and waiting rooms, nothing went as expected.
I enjoyed a great show. Really good but not as good as 2008.
Very special atmosphere : you can feel Mark's pain, he plays differently but you spend two wonderful hours.
I'm tired but I'm smiling today. A smiling face is by far the best rating I can give. ;D
Will try to write a full review tonight.

His playing and singing is sounding a bit tired to me recently when compared to the UK tour when Mark was at his peak IMO.
Hillfarmers Blues is now the shorter version again and not a patch on what it was when played in the UK.
