For me this was the first time in Colombia, and what an experience the Bogota show was.

We arrived two nights before the concert, but our gear (a huge amount of equipment that was scheduled to fly in on a cargo plane) was delayed. So there we were on afternoon of the show, with crew still waiting to set things up, and the gear “on the way” but not arrived.

So, when the audience arrived to get in they were asked to wait.

We didn’t want to cancel the show, and this delay, aside from the inconvenience for the people with tickets, put a lot of pressure on our crew, to need to set up in a hurry and do the show without a soundcheck.

Strange, also, to begin our “VIP photo meet” without the usual backdrop behind us

But, things finally arrived… a quick setup, and here we go

and a great audience

Sometimes I’m lucky to catch a great stick toss!

Wonderful time for us, and we’re relieved it could happen.

Also aware that, for our crew, the pressure’s not off - they need to get the gear packed and back to the airport tonight before 2am, so it can fly out tomorrow - the show going late impacted that schedule.
