Hi,

I just bought tickets to see Roger in Tampa.
My only live experience with him is watching the "in the flesh" dvd. After watching, I told myself I would definately hit up his next tour.

So I guess my question has to do with how it will compare to the 2000 dvd. It was VERY grandiose. Doyle, the 3 backup singers, the props, etc.. Was all of that just a show for the DVD? Are the rest of his shows a more watered down version of that show?

I would love to see a show of that caliber. im sure at least some of you have seen his other shows live..how'd they compare?

thanks

You won't be disappointed. I've seen Roger every solo tour and this one is great. You're in for a nice treat.

Hey bmoore0909.....I live in the area too. How did you already get tickets? I didn't think they'd be available until Saturday 3/17.

They dont sit down and play cards. and he doesnt have as many props on stage. but he does have the flying big and a giant space man.
Not to mention great visuals!

I'm headed for the Boston gig on july 9th. awesome seats too!

The visuals on this tour are well better. He uses proper film projections rather than single slides and there is a lot more lighting.

I got them from Ticketmaster. There's an Amex presale. I got section 305, row 5. Not great, but not too bad either.

Thanks for the comments. Looking forward to it.

What about the 3 ladies that sang next to him on the dvd? They were awesome. Are they the same one's, different, or none at all?
