Just some quick notes - my train leaves for Copenhagen at 8AM.
Great show - though my seats were way up on the side and the sound was a bit "boomy".
Two halves - 52 minute first half - solo start - then joined by Alun. He also did the Moonshadow play section.
Second half started off on keyboards - King of trees and Where True Love Goes (he actually started this as the section from Foreignor Suite). yes - Yusuf was playing keyboards.
Unusual songs he did were Popstar (from Mona) and - a wonderful surprise for me - Blackness of the Night.
Second half lasted about 70 minutes, including a three song encore.
"My People" went over VERY well with the audience.
Sorry - got to get some sleep.

Yeah, as 'crobarbie' said. Amazing setlist. I was going to moan about some songs not performed, but damn, that's a cool setlist, innit. I'm curious to see if he'll change it a bit for the next gigs.

Just to clear it up - he did not do all of Foreigner Suite - just the last few minutes of it. "The moment you walked" that section - it sequed into "Where True Love Goes"
