One of my all time favourites back in the 70's and still is, it is indeed a great song

We are not alone!

ralphs lead was awful, wtf

[BCK]

Wasn't there, but heard Ralphs was 'off' for most of the gigs. May not have been up for this.

[BillyMacQ]

@mistersmeeg Might want to get your ears checked, expert. That lead was spot on.

[BCK]

Ever notice how Ian's voice becomes more lucid as the notes get higher and louder. 70? Dammm!!

[TheFastMax]

ofifoto- i think I was sitting next to you that night. I was in Circle Block 9, row A seat 36. Nice job. Thanks for posting this. Worth flying from SF, California for.

[ofifoto]

That you were, TheFastMax. My buddy Dave and I were in Circle Block 9, Row A, seats 30-31. Got my best vids that night. Perfect sightlines...

[TheFastMax]

What a show. Thanks again for your steady hand & perseverance. I was at Thursday, Saturday & Tuesday, in a front row seat this final night. Unforgettable. See Ian solo if you haven't already. Awesome & still going strong at 70.

[vermonation]

[metalbearuk]

Anyone else think this is a strane choice to open with?

[DennyYou]

ofifoto, thank you so much. Like ndv, I'm on the wrong side of the pond, unable to attend. hope to god, and MTH that they can bring it here.

[ndv180]

Your efforts are nothing short of heroic., especially for those of us an ocean apart.

[shrunkenheadache]

The Quality of your clips are the best.I was there and this just helps keep the memory of a fantastic night alive.I know it's greedy but if you have any more clips,particularly Rock'n'Roll Queen(why has nobody posted this?It was blistering on Friday and Saturday) I would be very grateful.Thanks again.

[ofifoto]

Gonna try to get "R & R Queen" on Monday...

[blchesterton]

Dear ofifoto. Great work here. Please try and get as much of his gig on as possible. I was there too and it was an event. Also have you got any of the funny stuff? Hunter stopping at the start of 'Memphis' when the fan ran on. The band missing the cue and Hunter looking at his watch, or when Overend called Ian over for them to have their picture taken by a fan together. Great magic night, please try and get the lot on!

[ofifoto]

I do have some of that footage (including the Memphis bit with the stagehopper), but this hotel's internet is a pain (40 GBP to upload 200mb - wtf!). Posting everything I have asap. Some of it may not go up until I get home Wednesday night...
