Kuba's O2 25th & 26th shows review - You gotta read it to believe it!

There were several similar banners: After All These Days (front), It's Hard Letting You Go (back). And Jon decided to play both

He's been posting here for almost 3 years under assorted names. It's not worth quoting or responding to him.

Like many of us here in this thread I DID read this monumental review/confession to the end.
Kuba, this is the most passionate and the best written review I have read this year. It is as if a great spirit of poetry was working in you. I am absolutely serious. I found the idea of poetic spirit in the English Romantic poetry, especially in William Blake. And I think that what Blake meant is absolutely true – some sensitive natures in the moments of great excitement and inspiration are writing in the way you did! They enunciate out of themselves the most subtle and the most majestic feelings that arise in the depth of their souls. And this is exactly how you expressed yourself in the description of your state of mind that you experienced in those moments of the show which were for you the most touching and impressive.
Let me tell you how much I enjoyed the report. I also think that the idea of handing the „thank you” letter was great. There must be nothing more rewarding to an artist than to hear how great impact his music has on the emotions and the lives of people. I think that if Jon does receive this letter he will read it with deep emotions.
It is a really good thing that the letter was first of all focussed on appreciation and thankfulness and that all request and invitation to Poland comes as second in the hierarchy of importance. I think it is a matter of sensitivity and tact of the writer to thank the band in the first place. And of course, to ask them to come to Poland is a good move.
Kuba, if they came to our country I would get crazy of joy! I mentioned last time that our personal history is built up of moments of happiness, small particles that add up during the entire one's existence to make up the story of one's life. It would be one of those portions of joy that are the constituents of my individual life. Thank you!
If you get any answer to our invitation, please let me know. I promise I will help with whatever you want me as far as organisation matters are concerned!!!


As far as the pictures are concerned - they are really nice! Great to know what you look like!
As to Obie in your pics: You know, my husband says that I am one of the skinniest persons he has ever known. Which does not hurt in the times when it is "trendy" to be thin. But he must see Obie in your pics I believe I am a bulky big monster if compared to this man

Sounds like a great time man! A lot of people have been complaining about these shows, but I just can't see it, as much as I can try. They played the rarest of the rare, they played the hits, they mixed it up, the rocked out and I wish I could have been at some of them! Glad you had such a memorable time and that KTF shirt is sweet. My little brother had it a while back!

I read til the end and it was a fantastic read. Lovely story and I'm happy for you. Glad you got great shows, too.

Thanks again everyone for reading my review to the end. It seems there were more of you that did that than I would ever think. It was great to share it with you - true BJ fans - because sadly there are very few people in my life that understand my love to their music.

Just one note about my t-shirt. I received it from my wife last Christmas as a surprise. She is just one great wife, don’t you think? She just knows that if you want to make a great gift to me it should be anything BJ related and if you want to make a perfect gift it’s gotta be anything KTF related By the way, I was surprised that there were actually few people at the o2 telling me “Great t-shirt, where did you buy this?” So there’s more people that actually liked it. And I don’t blame them, cause it’s great and I wear it proudly on my chest

Here is the final missing part of my review, which is 'It’s Hard Letting You Go' video. It was truly amazing to hear it live. They just almost gave me a heart attack with TD and then they just relaxed me with this one. Enjoy:

It’s Hard Letting You Go

I will post the rest of my videos on the 25th & 26th show threads this week.
