Ok I just went to the concert in Zurich yesterday after I saw him already a few weeks ago in Germany. Germany was great because they were no seats at all like it should be at a rock concert. yesterday in zurich the whole arena was seated. During the first song a bunch of people started moving to the front and more and more followed them. Of course all the fancy people who paid sitting in the front had to stand up to because they couldnt see anything no more. And then Neil said: its great to be back and to see you here in the front. pointed to the people staying in the front.
He really kicked everyones ass who wanted to sit comfortoble in their seat. Fuck this is a rock n roll show. Pussys can stay at home and watch it on dvd. like he sings: hey hey my my rock n roll will never die. Go to a concert where you are not allowed to stand, dance, sing along, get drunk, just have fun and rock n roll will be dead sooner as you may think.
But you know what, thats maybe why american bands like to play in europe that much.
Amasing last song: A Day In The Life. After 2 hours Neil was still on fire! I never thought I could love that much a Beatle song..
he is nearly 63 years old, and rocks for over 2 hours
he is the dog bollocks

The concert was great and Neil seemed to enjoy it too, altough there were only about 3400 fans attending. As the concert was rather expensive, mostly true fans came, which gave a good atmosphere. Good to see that Yoongsters joind the concert too and they seemed to enjoy it. After the first song, the crowed headed to the stage as they could not sit still anymore. Neil too had to jettison some Equipment to have enough space to rock....
All in all, an outstanding concert, Best I have seen since a long time...
Keep on rocking
PS: Neil, pls dont let us wait too long for your next Europe Tour.
