Dublin, Ireland 6-10-06
Just a quick post to say I'm back and WHAT A SHOW!!!! The boys did us proud. All I'd hoped for and more. I was a bit sad to leave Dublin today, knowing they are going to do it all again tonight, but now there is Wembley to look forward to!

Re: Dublin
His jacket had a pink lining. I think it was raining - did you see Don' outfit. It was very unusual for him to wear the pink shirt open.

Re: Dublin
I'm so glad I had the binoculars - even though I got the seats just after they went on sale they were further away than I imagined, but through the bins it was much better. Even then, I didn't pick up all the interactions between the guys, so relied on the big screens either side of the stage. I had to curb my shallowness with David present, but still couldn't help being nerdishly knowledgeable, such as "That's Glenn's guitar" and "That's Scott Crago!" before the start.
When the crowd started cheering, it was exciting to see them walking up the ramp to the stage. Although we only had back views I was thinking "Whoa - there's Joe, and GLENN, and Tim." I think I'd missed Don.
I'm not sure why Don wore that jacket, but the weather forecast wasn't good. It looked better over his red shirt. I think he has already lost some weight on this tour and is looking good. His voice is amazing, sounds no different from the 70s.
On stage, I was taken by Tim's flowing hair - he had to brush it away from his face a few times. He was the one interacting with the crowd and getting them to clap. His jeans were very tight and in the second half, the shorter undershirt revealed a very neat back view.
Joe was, well, Joe, but I thought he looked better here than for some time, full of energy, articulate, nice fluffy hair and his guitar playing was awesome. He really lifted the tempo of the show.
Glenn – oh how I wish I could have been closer. He was wearing an open-necked shirt to start with, but even with binoculars I didn’t glimpse chest hair, and the shirt in the second half was way too long! His guitar playing was immaculate and he was energetic and always on the ball, changing pedals, adjusting the amps and holding the whole show together. In the second half he really loosened up and in the jam with Joe on Funk#49 the sound was amazing. A couple of times I could swear he was looking right at me – not true of course ‘cause I was too far away – but maybe he was wondering about the weirdo with the binoculars! I can but dream. What a man.
Here’s to next weekend!

Re: Dublin
I think I was wrong when I said Glenn's jacket had a pink lining. I think it's the fact that the shirt was open underneath.
Kate, I am so happy that you enjoyed it and that our man lived up to your 'great expectations'.!

Re: Dublin
WM, have a wonderful time!! Just remember lots of details to share with us.

Cause I'm livin' on things that excite me,
Be they pastries or lobsters or love;
I'm just tryin' to get by being quiet and shy,
In a world full of pushin' and shove.
