A few points:

- Ringo was in top form - looking fit and happy. His drumming was great.
- Sheila is such an amazing drummer / percussionist; she proved that again at this show. No wonder Ringo keeps asking her back.
- Edgar is an amazing multi-instrumentalist. He played keyboards, sax and percussion. Frankenstein is such a great song.
- Richard is a better guitarist than I thought he would be.
- Billy is an excellent lead guitarist.
- Hamish can really play bass.
- Rod's really good on the keys too.
- When Ringo introduced Billy, Billy said, "Thanks for that nice introduction, Paul".
- Rod had a false start to She's Not There. A setting on his keyboard needed to be reset.
- Ringo was off stage when they did Frankenstein.
- Sheila did a percussion encore after The Glamorous Life.

It was *so great* to hear What Goes On. And I'm glad that NWY, MIYM and CL are in the set list too.
