Your photos are great btw.

I could see into the side where Cory and the crew were and I kept looking for Christine. Like you said, she may have been backstage drinking wine and watching a monitor

.

I didn't use a flash, but for some reason my pictures came out too bright and they suffered and got blurry from the zoom, but in the end we all have great pictures from every single song, thanks to the ones other people have posted since the very first night.

Even if we hear later that every single day was torture, we won't believe it! Aside from Mick, the others aren't good enough actors to hide their true feelings that well.

Thank you Michele for your fantastic review and you beautiful pictures! You must be wide awake still. What is it, like three o'clock in the morning there? How long are you gonna stay in London? Any sightseeing involved?
I loved that photo you posted of Stevie all in red with the red platform boots on.

Yeah, it will be interesting to hear any new press that comes out. I'm sure most of the Australia/NZ coverage will be the same stuff we just read/heard/saw for the past 3 weeks, but maybe we'll get a few more new interviews. Nonetheless, i'll be trolling for any sort of quote that i can read into.

I leave tomorrow or should I say today. I have no sightseeing plans, other than what's within walking distance. I was thinking what if Michael Jackson was alive? I'd have probably go and see one of his London shows, if the dates fit.

I'd also love to see a play, but I don't want to miss any more work. I couldn't go all the way out to Perth or anything next month, so I wanted to see them here, as the last time in 2009. I guess I was hoping for a little something from Chris. Don't say anything, just squeeze a little accordion! But I suppose 95% of me must have known that would not happen.

Awesome review Michele (as always). This show sounded like a very special one. In fact, I think all these European shows have brought something out in this band because, as brilliant and amazing as they were in the states, it just seems like they're so much more relaxed, humorous,energized, from all I have read. Must be their European heritage coming out or something. Anyway, thank you. And the pictures are incredible. Wow to the Sara embrace.

I thought Mick would mention Chris but he didn't. He said he had the flu and that all of them were staying away from him and he felt devastated by the exclusion. He was speaking at Lindsey's mic and had to pull it up to talk. He was befuddled: "Lindsey can't be this short!"

Michele

I had no idea that you were flying over for a London show! That's awesome Michele. I'm so jealous. Love the pictures and summary. Thank you thank you!

I know I did sing some, but I had no idea any voice could be heard over the speakers that close to the front.

I thought the show was absolutely incredible, maybe because it's the last of the European concerts. Stevie's Landslide dedication to Christine was very touching. She said something like "I miss you every single day and how funny you are and how brilliant it is to be in your presence." Something like that anyway. Shame they couldn't entice her though to join them on stage.

I didn't know you would be there either!

A FM concert tweet reported a possible Jimmy Page sighting. I wonder who else was there?

Jimmy Page was there and also Ritchie Sambora

Michele

I was told Christine would be sitting to Stevie's right in the tiered section
