I can only imagine how you who were lucky enough to be there felt as surprise after surprise was unveiled - amazing! I can liken it somewhat to Bryan Ferry's "As Time Goes By" tour - I saw his second US show on that tour, which was in Philadelphia. It was about that time that Roxy Music songs started creeping into the set list - when the band started playing the opening strains of "Chance Meeting" (I had no idea it was coming) I felt an unbelievable sense of joy and good fortune.
