I was at the Ann Arbor show, too! I didn't see you, diremark, but then, I don't know what you look like! I did meet Jeroen, after the guy sitting next to me mentioned that the guy in front of him (Jeroen) was from Europe and he was attending all the American shows. I knew he had to be a forum member (to be that crazy), so I tapped him on the shoulder and introduced myself. Our very own Jeroen! What a pleasure to meet him...
As diremark said, MK was seated for the entire gig, except for a few painful looking attempts to move around. I thought the lighting was spectacular and the sound was terrific. The crowd was enthusiastic and very responsive. I resisted the urge to shout "We love you Mark!" during the quieter moments, although I did hoot and holler with the crowd. Far be it from me to overreact to Mark's presence. I avoided all pre-show spoilers so that I would be surprised at the setlist. My patience was rewarded, time and time again. Highlight of the evening? A scathing version of Speedway, played loud and with verve. I loved it! Mark gave the thumbs up at the reference to Belle Isle in Detroit, a gesture which did not go unnoticed by the crowd. Diremark already gave you the setlist and every song sounded fantastic to me, so I won't go over each one individually. It was a wonderful evening, from the second row, center stage! I wish I'd had my camera with me!!!
