I heard it was all being done on ice, now that Rick Wakeman's been drafted in on additional keyboards.  It's certainly cold enough; I hope the chaps packed their thermals... |

We saw the show in Kaltenberg last year - it rained cats and dogs. So we just had to get tickets for Zurich on 21st Jan - it indoors this time |

I'm not quite sure who the audience would be tbh.....can't think it would be economical. Would like to be proven wrong, mind. |

I find the ticket price, combined with travel costs, too much this time - a decent view costs over Ģ80....

It is expensive. No doubt about that, but you see, down here, we cut down on some other things and treat ourselves to some luxury in order to shorten the time till Cropredy.

Up north we had a lot of snow, so the drive from Bremen to Mannheim was 10 hours - instead of 6. And the weather forecast says: A lot of snow for the weekend. The trucks with the stage and all the techs and roadies drive through the night. |

Heavy snowfalls - up to 50 cm - are predicted starting Friday noon,  accomanpied by gusts of wind and consequently snow banks. I am surely not applying to change with the truck drivers. |

There was snow everywhere in the south when I left this morning and more snowfall is forecast for the region for the weekend.
Was still worth going though =)

There's a comment on the FC site from "Bill" who says the show is sensational - hurrah! (especially Chris' voice), but that Simon wasn't well - boo!
Hope you're (soon) feeling better, Simon.
