@maartenvanderpoll -- you're so lucky! Fortunately, he's coming to my area in April, so I'll have my chance to see him too. I hope he does this song!

[maartenvanderpoll]

@LisaJ4Liberty yes, and the nice thing was that i hadn't heard his music until then. So it was a pleasant surprise to hear his very unique sound

[LisaJ4Liberty]

@maartenvanderpoll -- Did he do this song in that concert?

[maartenvanderpoll]

@LisaJ4Liberty No, i don't think so. I didn't see all of it because I came in when he was already playing It's a festival where you have several halls and rooms where bands are playing. So you can walk around and see if there's something you like. Well that was certainly the case when i entered the hall he was playing :-)

@maartenvanderpoll -- sounds like a great experience. Thanks so much for your comments!
