Hi everyone,
I visited a great Toto open air concert in Leverkusen, Germany on Wednesday and took some nice pictures I'd like to share with you:

You're welcome :)
I'm quite happy the quality is ok, for I took these pictures with my new cam (Canon Digital IXUS 40) and had to play around a bit with the settings - I took far over 300 pics in total and had to sort out lots of blurry stuff. Never mind, there was still enough time left to actually enjoy the music ;)

Update, Update! :)

Yesterday evening I visited the FIB gig in my hometown Duesseldorf and, of course, took some 500 MB photos. :cool:
Once again, the guys played their asses off - incredible. The band introduction was one-of-a-kind with Luke imitating Michael Jackson with a shocking accuracy. :D
Guys and girls, if you ever have the chance to watch a Toto gig, do it, you won't regret!

Lucious,
you "old guys" seem to have some kind of juvenile machine on stage - though Leland does a good job in masquerading :D
Hey, and next time you get to come to Düsseldorf, give me a note - we've got plenty of taste beer sorts around here. Get ready for a heavy-duty drinking competition! :cool:

Interesting that this resurfaced, I was in Leverkusen too.
Actually Leverkusen was my first "real" Toto gig. I have to admit that for a long time I only knew the "usual stuff" like Hold the Line, Rosanna... But when I saw them at the Nokia Night of the Proms in '03, it hit me.
According to the news article on Lucious' website, a LOT of poor guys and gals in the U.S. just do not know what great kind of music they're missing.
Hope things run better this tour - elsewhise grab your pals and family and move over to europe, the beautiful, sunny place where great musicians still experience appreciation! ;-)
