Reading everything above - and testing me at the same time - to see if that AVATAR thing locked in or not... Just a philosophy - this discussion seemed to have turned a way a bit from the reviews it first started at. Music - for whatever reason - crosses borders, languages, politics and religion. It brings people together - . Not just Mr. Islam - but many types of music. Aren't we lucky we have it - and we can be as John Lennon wrote "Imagine"... With that - I will make another comment - I am older than most on this site - so stop calling yourselves old cows and stuff. I can still dance down the aisle and embarrass my daughter (I love to embarrass my daughter - she gets so - well - you know - embarrassed!).... We're people and we're enjoying the music and sharing the experiences and laughter. I want to thank everyone for responding to both my introduction - the kindness on this site that is shown. I will wait on the Dublin review - unless I get that "ump"... Regards always,  Marge |

Marge - the "old cows" thing has sort of become an inside running joke. Regii used an expression "digging up old cows" and I joked that I thought she was calling all of us old cows. Trust me, a few more days on these boards and you will see that we are all just a bunch of young people who happen to remember the 60s and 70s.  |

Okay - I am immature - but experienced -  how's that one? ...63 - going on 18 emotionally - but experienced enough to have made a ton of mistakes  - as Oscar Wilde put it... LOL  Another Irishman - Oh My! You are all fun - it's nice for a change. Happy New Year to all! |

How about if we call ourselves "experienced - but drooping persons"... How's that one?  Sounds better than old cows - cause they shoot old cows - and I am unsure what they do with them after wards...LOL |

Regii - I love the cow photograph - look at those eyes - just look at them - look at those fabulous eyes of the cow... Oh my! Nancy is right - we are all old enough to know when we see a good thing and hear it now - and we hang on to it! So we are experienced - but a little droopy - and I more than the rest of you! XOXOXOXO - Marge - with Hugs of course! See I already started a cow vs. experience debate... |

I was about to send some funny cow pics, but that would be going right off the topic. I think maybe on another thread. Maybe hens would be a better choice. ;D |

Regii you are too cute I love OLD COWS too. And they live happily ever after in India. Nobody dare shoot them ;D That was good! ;D I guess what matters is not how old you are but how old you feel! At least that's what I think as an "unexperienced"... |

The Concert at Royal Albert Hall was electrifying ... He moved and sang thru his mind body and soul like He did 33 years ago...And the Crescendo of his eyeglasses falling off twice Speaks Volumes .. He is unchained and a Child Again .... I spoke to Alun Davies on the phone and He was so proud of him .. He said they both were tired afterwards because of the intense feelings it produced.. and Im sure ahem.. There will be a USA Tour.. this year .... just a prediction If anyone wants to go to my You Tube page ..Aurarisma.. I have my friends videos from RAH ... his name is NEIL but I have them all on my channel! Im so excited that Yusuf signed both of my Programs .. Majikat and Bamboozle.. He took them both and placed them down like they were precious gold and was smiling looking at them like He could see a reflection .. They are now in my Garden Room in Nyc.. and Im sure they are making the plants grow!! : Does anyone have the lineup of songs that Yusuf sang at RAH... THE ORDER OF THEM PLZ xoxxo Peace and Smiles xxoxo Ps It was so nice to meet everyone at the concert and Helen thank you for a beatufiul Souvenir opening your house to us all it was a moment I will treasure .. I had lunch at 245 Shaftesbury.. Who said it was closed I met the owner and He took me up to 1st floor where Yusuf was born then we climbed the metal stairs to the roof ... wowwwza that was thrillseeeking truly and there is a church point right across.. very nice! I hope to post photos next week! xoxo Christina |

He is unchained and a Child Again .... Thank you Christina for the way you expressed that. You should write these words on his site as well. The video culminating in the glasses flying off has such a wonderfully energizing and liberating effect as I watch it. You have a wonderfully intuitive way of seeing things. Crystal-gazer-like? Waiting for your pictures as well as more insights. |

Waiting for your pictures as well as more insights. I fully agree with Maya, Christina, you really do have a wonderful way of expressing yourself and of capturing Yusuf and his great spirit. It's not surprising that he took such thoughtful care in the handling and signing of your programs. As we've all known forever, around here, this is quite a unique man. -Bud |

Christina, you were asking for the play list from RAH... Here's Heather's post from " Majicatters reporting in!" Well I second what everyone else has said. A brilliant night and as Michelle said - it was like going back in time. The Cat was back. He was funny and seemed to be having a great time. I went to Liverpool also and think last night's show topped it. What a shock when he did the medley of "I Love My Dog"/"Here Comes My Baby"/The First Cut Is The Deepest". Gobsmacked to say the least. It was the highlight of the night. I wrote down the running order in the dark - writings all over the place but it is correct. Went as follows:- Lillywhite The Wind Where Do The Children Play Thinkin' Bout You Boots And Sand Maybe There's A World Oh Very Young - FABULOUS Sitting In This Glass World Bad Brakes Miles From Nowhere Fill My Eyes Roadsinger Morning Has Broken Midday (Avoid The City After Dark) I Think I See The Light Dont Be Shy - (Amazing) Wild World Peace Train Blues followed by Peace Train 1st Encore All Kinds Of Roses Moon Shadow I Love My Dog/Here Comes My Baby/First Cut Is The Deepest Tuesdays Dead 2nd Encore Father And Son Some of the people sitting around Helen and I seemed to be brain dead. Helen said "They must have won their tickets". They did not even clap and kept giving Helen and I dirty looks when we were singing and cheering. Boring Farts!!!! How could they have sat there with no response to him. Some people My fantasy set list would have included "Two Fine People", "King Of Trees", "C79", "How Can I Tell You" and "Maybe You're Right" although I know some of those are not suitable for him now but we can dream. It was great to meet up with everyone and it was a brilliant night. Let's hope we don't have to wait too long for the next tour. He seems to have the bug back again. |

HI Everyone!!! Thank you so much for the kind words in how I expressed myself in my note . You know I think after seeing all the videos from the various shows that RAH was by far the most freeing concert ..He was on point with notes his movement allowed the notes and the essence of his child to flow and He broke free I swear I saw it! I also think that He felt alot of different intensities up there I noticed in Miles from NoWhere He was singing "When I find it my Darlin' (Birmingham)its going to make me feel good" but at RAH He said Honey .. things like that let me know He wasnt holding anything back... He couldnt ..the night would not allow him to nor the Electro-Magnetic Field in that Hall, and It was a Revelation to Him Im sure ..a Beautiful One ..He probably saw a few people that He remembered and friends from long ago.. and It jolted him as He recognized a few of them and also mentioned when He saw a few at end of concert.. None the less all our Prayers brought him back ... and we must continuously celebrate this .. Our best friend has come home again Now when He does come to America.. Look out the Audiences there will be elevated from their seats lol But as He said He is ready for Reality ...and He got a taste of it from these 4 concerts .. the sweetest being Royal Albert Hall... not to take anything away from the other concerts . I wish I could have been to all of them! Well I know what you mean about some of those songs too .. King of Trees would have been amazing to do .. and The Hurt .. and 1001 I Dream, Changes IV -I think He will sing all those songs u wished for in the last note except C79 that probably wont happen altho I was amazed He sang Fill My Eyes and Lillywhite.. so .. and soooooooooooooooooooooooo grateful that He did .. I think He should have 2 concerts like one at 2pm .. then everyone have a siesta haha like they do in Greece and then Part 2 at 8pm.. so He can fit in all the requests hehehehee ~~~~ Do you think If I posted "He is unchained and a child again" .. that He might take that the wrong way .. I dont want to insult him .. or his intensity of faith that he had that I feel binded him and constricted even the life force of his skin .. now when u see him he has pink cheeks heheheee .. but I dont want to offend.. hmmm maybe I shall write it ..why not .. Nothing we all ever say could be bad we appreciate him so much ! Well when i find out how to post some photos Iwill if anyone has any suggestions how to do it please when u have time tell me .. Dont u feeel a change a comin from another side of time .. Breaking down the walls of silence liftin' shadows from your mind placing back the missing mirrors that before you couldnt fiiind fillinn mysteries of emptiness that yesterday left behhhind .. OOOH Yes! xoxo C |

Oh, heavens no, Christina, I wouldn't think that Yusuf would be insulted or offended by what you expressed. And I believe the reason he wouldn't be is precisely because of what you stated: "Nothing we all ever say could be bad we appreciate him so much!" And what is so wonderful about this is that Yusuf continuously demonstrates that he appreciates us, too! (Btw, can't wait to see those photos!) -Bud |
