Mark Arnold Scored 6th row tickets on the floor for this night's performance, right under Chris Squire's spot on the circular in-the -round stage. The music format was similar to the previous year,but this year they turned the volume up. The performance was impeccable,as the audience and band exchanged energy for the whole evening. It was great being so close. We couldn't hear the p.a. above us, as much as we heard the on stage equipment. Couldn't get over Steve's huge assortment of guitars-and watching him take off with the Khatru...Unbelieveable!
