But I couldn't agree more with you about the DVD !! It was an amazing event .. not just for Meat, but for everyone involved ... and I'm truly grateful that they captured it on DVD so that we could all share it :)
I can't tell you how many times I've watched it since the night I brought it home .. and like you, I keep jumping from one favorite song to another.
At first it was FCOL (because the level of emotion that he brings to the song is nothing short of amazing) but then it jumped to Mercury Blues (because of the interaction with the band) then Out Of The Frying Pan ... and Testify (both of which are really growing on me !)
It's truly incredible .. and I hope that everyone gets the opportunity to enjoy it for themselves before too long !!

Well, I had tickets to three concerts, the other two that were cancelled were without Cyndi, and one was at the very small theatre in my town that only seats 800 people, I had second row seats for that one. *sigh*
Concerts are great and a memory indeed, but the recording is something that will live on and can be played over and over...
Common Bat III!!!
I cannot get over the quality of the band in this DVD, it is UNREAL. Gosh Mercury Blues and Testify ROCKS. Eek! FCOL is beyond a gift.... it would have been something special to be there, what a tug at the heartstrings that would have been. :)
Patti and CC are both gorgeous, but CC is beyond radiant on these particular nights... I am very impressed and I am certain she is going to have no trouble finding work in the future.
Been reading a bit of feedback here and there on too much CC, so the last couple of times I watched my thoughts sorta were... well yes, the camera loves her and I can see them spending time in that direction, and... heck! She just stands out! But you know, nothing can take away from the beauty and security that is Patti I think... there is a woman that is so full of personality, strength, talent and depth it feels to me. Both women are total assets and Meat was one lucky man to have them on that tour.
Could have used a lot more shots of Kasim though.... a bit disappointing in that aspect, and I wouldn't have minded more of the orchestra as well.
I just wonder when I am going to get sick of it.... can you wear out a DVD?

.... trying her best to do just that....
P.S. Glad you can still edit within a half hour 'cause I have sticky lunch time finners... I mean fingers!
