I saw RT solo in Nuremberg last Sunday.
Yes, it was raining cats and dogs  Wink

The gig was brilliant. A friend of mine, who saw RT for the first time, said: "There MUST be another guitarist somewhere. Nobody can play like this!" I said: "As you see, God can play like this."

He opened with "Bathsheba Smiles", followed by "I Crawl Back". The audience joined in the chorus and RT seemed to be surprised.
From the new album he played "Dad's Gonna Kill Me", "Needle and Threat", "The Sunset Song" and "Johnny's Far Away".

He played for 1 1/2 hour, what was far to short for me.
But next week I will see him often enough  Tiara

Just back from seeing RT. Absolutely brilliant, all the band playing out of their skins 'Hard on Me' must have lasted 15 minutes. The new stuff sounded great. Really looking forward to Friday. Slightly deaf in one ear as the volume was not set on low but hopefully hearing will have come back by then

I was there in Sheffield too Rachel. RT was indeed brilliant, and looked really relaxed and played some stuff that I didn't expect, like Gypsy Love Songs. The band played really well together, as usual. Appetite really whetted for the weekend now!

Is that going to be a 'proper' live CD or one of his self-released jobs?

From the RT Q&A's

We have recorded a lot of the shows, and will certainly release a CD. Realistically, this would not be released until some time next year.

Yep.  That would be the difference.

Hmm...From gigs, difficult if you can't get to the gig, from the website with shipping it can sometimes cost as much as buying it in the store, depending where you are, so whether it is an official release is to me, a valid question! I have one of the unofficial double live Cd's-Live Words, bought at a gig, but other than Cropredy, and 1000 Years, there hasn't been a proper official live RT in years, so I think its about time! And DVD's don't count!!!

I know that means its available, but, believe it or not, some of us actually like buying things in a store! I'll hunt my rarities down online, but new albums I expect to find in a store. Of course in the states since Tower Records went out of business, its getting harder to find a lot of stuff.
