I've just finished your article about that night , and what is interesting is that I went ,9 days after the concert you re talking about,to see DS in Paris Bercy.
I was 21, and for me too , it was the first time I would be able to see MK live. My sister, a friend and I took a bus full of DS fans from Dijon to see this concert.
I was very excited and even a bit nervouse ... after spending hours watching and listening to Alchemy , I was hoping to be able to witness the same energy, feeling....
Well, as we all know now , that was not going to happen ... but to be honest , I was so happy to be there, see them play...finally hear SOF live , that ,as a huge fan and an amateur guitar player , I had a very good time.
I've been able to see MK several time after but I'll always have the feeling of having missed the "best years" for live (for DS period).
