That's great. I'm so glad it was a good gig :) I've seen him twice this year so far. One was an intermate indoor gig and I was front row and got to rst my head on the stage and just look up at him then he reached down to m when he was on stage and it was just so increadible then I saw him at an outdoor gig and it was 9.30pm the gig started and there was a huge thunder and lightening storm. It was increadable and every time the lightening lit up the sky the crowd cheered. We were all freezing and wet and had been miserable and complaining until Bob came on but the second he came on stage no one was cold or cared about therain anymore.

What an amazing guy ad I'm looking foward to seeing more gigs later this year.

I know excactly what you mean about his gigs
