Blame Canada. I payed $60 for the Amsterdam show. But it was worth at least $200. It's very difficult to get a ticket for Roger in Oslo this summer, but if my only possibility on the concert day is to pay $200, I'll definitively do it. An alternative is travelling to Stavanger because the venue is bigger and the price is probably lower. I'm still angry at my self that I didn't go to the concert Roger had in Oslo four years ago.

I agree the original is the best complete version, although some parts of David's version and some parts of the old live versions maybe are better. But to be there when David, Rick and the great band played it live is a completely different and much more magical experience than listening in some headphones.

Roger has said that he will do some old stuff that he never has performed live before. But his solo stuff isn't crap. I think the songs from ATD he played on his last tour was great. Hopefully he will play some new songs as well. (Each Small Candle
