Just scored tix for the Auditorium Theater show in Chicago. Front row of the uppermost balcony. It's the most I've ever paid for concert tix, but hey, it's a good excuse for a road trip (I'm a 4 hour drive from Chicago) and while I've seen Roger a bunch of times, I've only ever seen Dave twice (Beacon Theater '84 and Yankee Stadium '94).
will do anywayQuote

Evidently some great reviews so far - his singing and guitar playing in top form.
Not playing the entire new album (as of yet), but maybe that's a good thing...
Listened to cd again today from start to finish - hmmmm....some decent tunes here and there, great guitar, and his voice sounds good.
There's a bit of the good old Floydian vibe, along with a couple of real clunkers imo.
The lyrics leave alot to be desired for the most part, but it is what it is.
Might be a good idea to hit the pub before the show.

I saw Dave once solo in 2005 (or '06?) at the Universal Ampitheater (great) and twice with Pink Floyd performing The Wall at the L.A. Sports Arena, 1980 (phenomenal).
Have also seen Roger multiple times- most being during his recent Wall tour.
The Auditorium show in Chicago will be fantastic!!! Beautiful theater and seating capacity only 3,901 seats.

I have these links saved, as a friend of mine in Chicago is trying to lure me out there with Dress Circle seats he bought at face value day of onsale.
Very tempting, and Chicago is a great city!
There is also a spare single Dress Circle seat available at face value if anyone is interested.

Anybody seen him on this tour?
I know the set-list, but is he playing good?
I will go to Royal Albert Hall tomorrow night.
Just to know if I have to drink a lot or not.
If bad show, I can just as well get drunk.....

I also saw him last night. I was worried that the magic has gone (at least for me) but it was amazing. The new material is so so but the old stuff is timeless. It is not really rock'n'roll but I liked it.
