I was thinking about it, and thought what the hell why not post about it....
I went to his concert last night at the Rosemont Theater, and it was amazing...I got right around 15th row dead center and backstage passes plus managed to get the set list for the night.

I only had my cell phone with me for pictures so nothing is very good quality wise, and it really doesn’t show how close we were...But ill show them anyways.
I never actually got to meet David last night, but I did meet Guy Pratt and John Carrin. They were pretty cool. The reason for not meeting David was because his family was in town last night, and it was there last night here in the states before going home. So he wanted to spend time with them...
I got all my stuff for free (backstage passes, tickets..), the guy that hooked us up has been friends with David since '73 and has was a very nice guy...
I was talking to him about the lights and stuff and he said David wanted to keep it small for this tour. He only wanted 50 pieces of lighting and make sure it’s able to fit into two trucks. The lighting guy did a **** good job and pulled it off very well I thought, compared to Pink Floyds old shows where they used 300-500 pieces of lighting. The guy that got us everything us up has been friends with the lighting guy longer than David, so that was pretty cool too.
Just thought I'd share what I did last night, and had a blast.
A few videos will be up in a bit.
