Fabulous photos! Cameras are banned at most concerts today - it's nice to see that Frank doesn't have a problem with this.
Glad all you Brits/Europeans got to see Frank.

Cheers

And enjoy i did! Thank you, great shots! Question..one pix, Franks arms are straight up in the air. Can you tell us what made him do that? As told, the crowd was good and loud for Frank, was that one of thoes loud cheers that sparked Franks emotions?

I think it was at the end of "try for Freedom" before Frank went off stage. We were, however treated to an encore of "Free" before Frank finally left the stage after 3hours 15minutes. This show was a unique experience, and you only had to be there to realise that you'd just witnessed something really special. Glad you enjoyed the photos by the way -thanks for your comments. Derek

the arm raising was at the end of try for freedom, definitely. i had been told by my friend that at the end of the mean fiddler show he raised his arm in acknowledgement of the crowd and left the stage for avi, dave and pete to finish the song.

i truly believe that frank was blown away by the audience on saturday - hence his parting comment at the end of the encore - "you guys rock".

i will be very interested to know how the band feel about the UK dates. they seem (to me anyway) to be a success.

cheers

Frank and the Boy's have been amazed by the fantastic reception they have received from the UK fans.
They cannot believe the reactions they have been getting at the shows...they are stunned.
Thank You UK.

We arrived at the Drome around 3.30pm after a 2 and a half hour drive and I dropped my wife off outside and went to park the car. When I returned she said " you just missed Frank go in" I was gutted especially as there was nobody else around and had to return home straight after the gig.
Almost three and a half hours of Frank blew us away. A great sound on the night and great choice of material, thanks Frank and thank you so much Parky for those great photo's!
