Security was looking for any camera recording. Craziness

Wow... And did they stop everyone who tried? :hmm
Not everyone  ;) :wave :-* 8)

Stealthy. He passed like a shadow under the darkness...   8)

More than stealthy ;-)

Filming was an interesting challenge.

On Saturday , for John Illsley, they caught us after 25 minutes in the middle of Sultans.
They said cameras are not allowed. I wanted to argue John is easy with that kind of and Mark allows small cameras but not the right moment.
I didn’t care that much because we were exposed, difficult to hide and …. I knew there was a second leg and I would have homecourt advantage.
It was a try to test the security. They were strict, nervous and it seems that it was due to Krusty’s ex.
We love you Joan Baez.

After the show we had a few discussions about security, video, the day after and … Joan Baez.
A few discussions and …  a few beers too I think.
Basically it was about cameras not being allowed . And then ? … we shall see and we’re gonna Joan Baez the security. 
Belive me, the play of words works in French ;-)

Before Mark’s show, one security guy told me you can take picture without flash, later the organization said no video , no photos … to not disturb.
ok, not my intention to disturb anyone and anyway I had chosen an appropriate spot in the stalls to respect this.

Unfortunately there was many empty seats around me and a few seconds before the show starts, a girl took the seat in front of me.
She was hot … very good ;-)
She also had a security talkie-walkie… not so good.

I had to to adjust myself and literally film over her shoulder all time.
That added some spice.
I still can’t say if she didn’t see anything … or didn’t care.

I don’t want to know the answer. It was thrilling but fun.
And the show was wonderful, like 2013  but sooooo short.

Always a great atmosphere at St Julien and the band seem to return the favour.

St Julien atmosphere is special, this "indoor outdoor" show is sounding different from all the other ones, not a big attendance but heavily loud.

And best opening act of the tour by Albert Lee, 76 and still rocking!

The haters are those who write shit

Two weeks in Australia and Sydney striptease

So while doing some editing with this concert I found out that one person in the crowd fainted or similar. Right after band introduction the crowd starts to shout, with Mark eventually asking what the problem is. When they also realise this person needs assistance, he requests this in the microphone.

Seems the person got help eventually, do we know how it went for this person? Not funny but very nice to hear Mark being engaged in this before continuing with Bonaparte  :clap all can be heard in the official recording.
