Bryan Adams
we got free tickets to see his concert last night, so off we went. and it was a great show. intimate. after the supporting act (the Lovebugs, a good Swiss group, same kind of music as Adams'), the man himself showed up, not on the stage as imagined (which was infuriating for all those who'd pushed and shoved to get up to it), but on a makeshift one, at the back. it was funny. they all went onto the actual stage a little later and provided us with a great show.
what i really liked was that at no time did Adams act like he thought he was a big star. he seemed almost shy, leaving his apparently best friend of a guitarist to play around. it was funny. at some point he invited a spectator to come up and sing with him, and later still, another one to dance with them. it was great. and no, that song does not get old and yes, his voice is the same. and it feels quite special to hear it for real.

Are you talking about the _Robin Hood_ song or the _Don Juan DeMarco_ song?
the Robin Hood one of course!!! (although the other one's good too, it's just never gonna be as good)
how's life in Hama?
I once saw Kelly Jones from Stereophonics do and inpromptu gig at a counting crows concert. It was awesome. Happy days.
