Great review! Thank you.

Chad is an amazing drummer and it’s a pity that he left the tour but on the other side, we’ve had a great drummer on Speedway at Nazareth, the best ever.

You mean that Danny was great for everything else TOO... ;)

2006 and 2008 were great tours too in my opinion...

The problem with Mark is always the same (and I don't want to throw the same topic once again...) : static setlists : 2005-2010 were close in terms of songs. Next tours I can't remember precisely as I didn't care...

At least we've had the tour with Emmylou with a totally new show with a very well balanced choice of songs.

But yeah, 2005 was a killer and I'm glad we've had Danny (who should have never gone according to me).

Thanks for the review btw, brought back fond memories.
