Someone - I think Jambay, posted something really nice about me tonight that made me blush. Of course, now I can't find the post. But thank you, it was very sweet of you. I wish I'd been in Havana - of course I would have spent the whole concert walking around looking for signal. I would have found it if I had to get a couple of tin cans, a string and Reynolds Wrap.

Quoterandallsdad During this lull I'd recommend searching for the Who on tour. (not now, they played last night, I'm just talking during the lull) Then go to twitter and search the who periscope. They'll have a couple pretty good scopers each show (Debbie Tiger did at least one) and while the Stones are better, these Who shows are pretty good and Roger sounds amazing following h

It's possible to scope. But too expensive unless you bought a SIM card with unlimited data. I only know one person who did.

Quotewildhorses260 Thanks for the information. I will inquire when I arrive. Was wondering if I should book a room in Havana on the 24th to get to the site of the concert early. Any idea how many people are expected? Between 10,000 and 1,000,000. If past events for the Pope and Major Lazer are anything to go by - 500k would be the best guesstimate.
