Once again, similar to Chicago, things worked out in my favor. Djscomics and I had been planning this UK trip for months. I had the task of procuring tickets. I managed to get decent seats for the 14th, 15th, and 18th ahead of time, but could not find anything that I deemed reasonable for the 17th. We decided to simply go to without tickets for the 17th and leave it to fate. The afternoon we arrived, after a long, arduous journey (sleepless 6.5 hour overnight transatlantic flight with a seat that was broken and wouldn't recline a millimeter... carry on bag wouldn't fit completely under seat so already limited legroom cut in half... dragging luggage what seemed miles through Heathrow and then a succession of Tube stations... making a pit stop so I could puke on a Tube platform... dragging luggage another mile along treacherous roads -- look left! no look right! -- to the hotel), we went to the O2 box office to see what was available for the 17th. Amazingly, these lower level seats 12 rows off the floor came up. Even better, when we arrived at the seats that night, I was up against the rail on one side, and the people in front of us only got up once or twice the entire show!

I was thrilled to get such a good filming opportunity. It certainly softened the blow of getting busted the following night (18th).

BTW, we missed the Gilmour show by one day. From the beginning, we planned to see shows #3, 4, 5, and 6. (We incorrectly guessed that Gilmour, if he were to appear, would show in the second half of the run.) It just wasn't meant to be. But we still had a blast regardless and would do it again in a heartbeat.

I would like to thank Kev (djscomics) for his moral support and help with logistics and seeding on this trip. He was my first mentor of sorts, showing me the ropes of taping while on an extended road trip back in 1991 during Yes' Union tour. He was the one to nickname me Tapehead2 (actually Tapehead Too back then; he was the original Tapehead). This trip was a celebration of twenty years of being buddies and fellow music lovers. Kev, you are DA MAN. :-)

So here's the 17th. See my note at the bottom regarding the 14th and 18th.

Yes, I will make a Blu-ray version.
