I "discovered" Keith when he was an opening act, so I've seen him in lots of smaller venues when he just started opening. I almost always have excellent seats for his shows (I love his fan club!). I've been front row a couple of times and never further back than about 15th row or the first section on the sidestage. I was front row at the Ryman (best venue in the world) on the 3rd night in March 05. I could literally reach out and touch the stage, so it doesn't get much better than that!
I hate to admit it, but I've started taking seeing Keith THISCLOSE for granted. LOL
I think those days are long gone now. He's playing increasingly bigger venues (the same places Bon Jovi was playing for the HAND tour. In fact, I know of at least two where Bon Jovi was there one weekend and Keith was there the next!)
I just watched Wetten Das and Keith mentioned Cologne, Berlin, Munich, and Hamburg for German dates. As far as I can tell this is streaming only.
Not one of his best performances by any stretch of the imagination though. Eh, not one of best songs either, so that probably contributes. It looks like there have been some changes in the band too. I hope they work out the kinks before they start the concerts. That's the bad thing about a solo artist whose band members have to keep working and get gigs with other artists.
