You're welcome!
I have so many observations! When Jon first took the stage before they began "This House Is Not For Sale" and the lights were still off, he was behind the see through curtain making silly poses and faces! He seemed so happy!
During the concert, a few things went wrong and he just had a goofy look on his face and laughed. He was having a good time with Tico.
He needs to double tie his shoe laces! I saw him tying them three times. He even said in the microphone he was having trouble with them. He was very engaged with the people down front with smiles and nods, even talking to them between songs. Someone had paper plates they were writing messages on for him. He acknowledged the signs and signed the last one during the bows. He wrote something on one side and signed his name on the other.
He was given two red roses. When he kissed them, one fell on the stage so he only had the stem.
When they began BOB for the encore, I believe it was Phil who strummed the first note and it was totally off! Jon looked so surprised, so much so that I thought something had blown up.
Anyway, I love watching what he does when the lights are off. He definitely seemed very playful. When I last saw him that close in October 2013 and the lights were off between the songs, he looked very worn out - like he wasn't going to make it through to the end.
In 2013 he was spitting so much that the stage had to be slippery. Probably had phlegm problems. I'd never seen so much body fluid (of course sweat also) come from a performer. This time there were a few spits. Yes, I am fascinated by these things! I've only been to 5 BJ concerts - and 2 up close.
Jon mentioned that his Uncle Bob was in the audience. He said to say hi to Uncle Bob and that he and Jon's cousins who live in the area had never seen him before. (Hard to believe!). He said they were probably thinking, "what the shit"!
