Well, that was good.  Interesting set - shame he didn't play Cinnamon Girl, Cortez, or Rocking In The Free World - but wow, what a show.  I'd like to give a good kicking to whoever it was thought that clapping along (out of time) to Old King was a good idea..!

It felt like 2 gigs - 1 hour of acoustic material, then 1:20 of electric.  Bargain!

I've seen his extended guitar work-outs described as being thought of as transcendental by some and interminable by others - count me in the former category. No Hidden Path isn't my favourite of these, but there's something mesmerising and elemental in his playing that keeps me from ever getting bored, even if I find myself drifting a bit - and wondering if the big yellow light on the right of the stage was meant to symbolise the sun?
