My english writing is not very good, but even in dutch I can't find the right words for the last nights concert in Groningen. Just brilliant are the words(?). It started with a standing ovation followed by allmost 3 hours off Snow Goosebumps. Andy playing the gitar like........, yea, like what, like one off the best gitarplayers I have ever seen (heard). So pure, so full of passion. I also had a great time seeing Denis playing the drums like hell. It is ten years ago that I have seen Camel live, but yesterday it was as if they were never gone. Camel-music meant a lot to me in my live, and the last ten years it was 'just' following any news about the band and Andy. A few months ago I could'nt believe the news that they were goning on the road again. I bought the ticckets for me and my wife and it was worth every penny.
'I ain't getting any younger', Andy said with a smiling face when he announced the second last song.
I hope to see Camel on the road again next year. And one thing, a Camel ticket is priceless. If it would cost me a fortune I still would go........................................
Yes, I heard some rumours about continuing the tour early 2014. Not sure where but probably Europe again.
The Groningen gig was awesome.
I also met some people I "know" from the 'roadkill' Camel mailinglist (and the 'echoes' Pink Floyd mailinglist) which was very, very cool to finally meet them 'in the flesh'.
Zitat von ProphetInTheWind im Beitrag #6Glad to hear it was a great concert. I'm dying to hear them live, but will have to wait till they make it to the US, hopefully next year :)

It was fantastic to meet the band for the first time, and all were very generous with their time. Andy was a bit harder to talk to, as he was mobbed by fans! he did however tell me that Camel will be touring in April / May next year, but probably not the UK
