I was fortunate to stand only about ten yards from the stage, at about the forth or fifth row, right in front of Sharon and Roscoe, looking right at Leonard. The rain wasn't much to speak of for anyone who lives in the Bergen area.

Absolutely amazing concert. Songs like The Future and Manhattan were still much too tame from the band's side, but still. I wore my trenchcoat and my hat and made contact with Hattie. I enjoyed and sang along and danced to every song.

Really an excellent experience. I prefer it to the Bislett show as I was about 300 yards closer this time.

A great shame that the place was later soiled with oil and grease from the ship.
Now you've got the gist of what my lettuce meant.
