It sounds amazing, please when you can, share the whole recording, as apparently the official website is not selling this concert and it would be so great to have this last performance by MK.

Wherever I go, with Bonnie Raitt!!!!

That's not what I thought they would play together, wow, what a surprise.

Lol that was exactly the song I expected after you’ve said it’s something that’s been performed as a duo before 

So finally after the last “best show ever” you can stop feeling like you’ve missed out on something, thanks Guy 

The song a fan heard being rehearsing at soundchecks was "all the roadrunning" and that's the one I was expecting, maybe they tried both and finally decided by "Wherever I go" in the end.

Damn!  I like Roadrunning but not so keen on WIG at all.  Disappointed he chose that but shouldn't really be surprised.  Oh well, it could've been Secondary Waltz! 

Anyway, I sincerely hope everyone on AMIT attending this historic show enjoyed themselves immensely.

[Robson]

Wonderful version.

[Darling Pretty]

what about attendance?
How many where there?
Lots of empty seats?
Or was it acceptable?
Felt so sorry for the Band.
If he hadn't played Beacon the maybe could have a sell out

I am confident that they play MSG again
It was maybe just a test for future gigs there. Does it work or not

Wonderful version.

Granted, it is.  Maybe I have been a bit harsh on it, or am just getting old!  Both actually!

I was surprised, as they must have sold a lot of tickets in the past few days. By no means was it close to a sell out, but it did not look embarrassingly empty.  I'd say about 2-3,000 empty seats, not counting the sections behind the stage, which were not sold for this show.

Also, I was surprised at how many were there mainly to see Bonnie.

Thanks to the poster who posted the video and audio.

Another person, with great seats, posted Wherever I go on youtube. 

My favorite parts are that it seems at times during the MK solo parts that Bonnie shakes her head a bit, as in amazement.  Then, near the end, Mark kind of throws his head back while the brass is playing, as if he were saying "get a load of how great these guys are".    But, the handshake with Bonnie at the end looked awkward.   She walked over and initiated it as Mark stood still, which was strange too.  You would have thought a quick hug, or an arm around the shoulder would have been more appropriate than a half grab of a hand.

It was well performed but it's clear Bonnie didn't know the lyrics and is reading them from the autocue.

Bonnie sounded a bit out of tune towards the end of her last solo, I thought.

Bonnie sounded a bit out of tune towards the end of her last solo, I thought.   

Indeed, I thought that too...

Fabulous SAN

Was underwhelmed by the song choice and it's performance, but the handshake to me looked absolutl ok, I mean, it is not like she will jump in a bus and speed off after this song? They will party backstage

I have Rudy Pensa sitting in front of me. No joke.

Any interaction?
