Here in Albuquerque to play at a venue called Revel.

and it has an extraordinary mural, painted high above the audience seats, and facing the stage.

So, we’ll be seeing that throughout the show - should be a new experience.

Soundcheck:

Caught a nice lighting moment on Steve

After soundcheck, it seems a good time to check out what cd’s and books I’ll have left when the tour ends in a few days. I find Fire, as usual, running back and forth organizing both the merch and the VIP pre-show meet & greet. No wonder I rarely get a picture of him.

Later, people coming in…

and we’re on

almost right away, Adrian has a little problem with his gear, and Thomas comes onstage to rescue us

which gives me a bit of time to shoot the audience again

and, headed back on, an interesting view of the stage

Okay, I obsessed a little with the audience and mural… but it was a pretty compelling sight from stage.

On now to Tucson, and the last two shows of the tour.

More soon.
