yep.
one question to anyone who was there though.
who was the "person" (not sure if male or female, as i stood at the complete other side of the stage) that mark went to and shook hands with, and laughed with??
great sultans again tonight, he plazed some of the parts towards the end COMPLETELY differently.
some drunk kept shouting slightly to my left, "yeah son" "i'm a geordie" "show them son" yeaaaahhhhaaaa"" and so on....
i guess there's one in every crowd....
any Knopfler, Floyd or Dylan will do....

Hello Pottel,

Just missed seeing you as when ever I went to say hello you moved off to see someone else! and I didn't want to disturb you when you were meeting Guy.
I was after all just in front of you last night. Oh well there will be another time I'm sure. I was sat next to the chap who is doing all the shows!!

Not sure who the lady was who Mark shook hands with but he seemed pleased to see her, so did Danny too. The guy who kept shouting out got very annoying the same as the chap behind us trying to sing each song word for word without much success! He also gave a running commentary to his 'friend' what song was coming next!!

Besides those 'minor' interuptions I and my wife thought that was the best MK has played for a while giving his back problem which you can sense is slowly getting better.

'Marbletown' oh what a treat!!!

Some piccies from last night's 'Mind blowing' concert...

Thanks, a bit more difficult from Stalls (need to change settings of camera a lot) also due to bigger distance, but my amateur camera still does the job. Although I would love to bring my Nikon D3 with me...but professional equipment is not allowed :-\

According to Isaac's blog, Concert #41 had members of the band's families in the RAH in the first rows, so perhaps the lady MK shook hands with was connected to a member of the band!      Isaac was on row #7 instead of row #1 for the first time - perhaps for this reason!  :)

I guess Isaac is the guy I spoke to last night as he was sat next to me!! He is doing all the shows of the tour?

Pottel,

I met you at Bournemouth, being sat right behind you at the show!! and we exchanged email addresses with each other and you also told me about joining this forum!!

I was stood by door 1 waiting to get MK.COM tickets on Wednesday evening, I happened to glance round and saw you were with Guy chatting... I had my 'Get Lucky' black T-shirt on and had a blue rucksack stood first in the queue for the pre-ordered tickets...

I'm afraid thats it for me/us now regarding shows until the next time...
We were sat in row 7 that night next to Isaac!!
