Philly Anyone??

Some highlights:

About an hour before the show started, Neale went outside for a smoke and then went to a restaurant across the street from the venue. He didn't order anything, he just stood there. I went over to try to talk to him, but he seemed to want to be left alone. I did tell him that his use of a 12-string acoustic on GYOW was "genius," of which he seemed appreciative.

After Lindsey came out, but before he started playing, I screamed "Not Too Late!" Lindsey then nodded at me and began playing.

During "It Was You," the crowd cheered every time Lindsey mentioned one of his children.

Before "Under the Skin," Lindsey said, that we were "a great ****ing audience," causing the crowd to go nuts.

After the drum solo in Tusk, the crowd, which for the most part had remained sedentary until then, finally got on their feet, and several people, including myself, moved toward the stage, where they would remain throughout the rest of the show. During GYOW I got to touch Lindsey's guitar. I could have flipped the pickup switch because it was right near my hand, but decided not to because I didn't want to piss anyone off. Before they left for the encore break, Neale gave me his pick.

I think it was during the encore break, two women threw their panties onstage. One landed in Lindsey's spot, and one in Brett's. Lindsey and Brett ended up showing them off at various points throughout the rest of the show.

Before "Show You How," Neale told Lindsey that he was not going to play until somebody threw panties at him, at which point Brett threw him the panties that had been thrown to him, much to the delight of the crowd.

Best concert I've ever been to? It just might be.
