A major thank-you to the band and the CD-Plus site for live-streaming the concerts. Briefly I'd fantasized flying to London to catch the first several shows, when reality intervened. I'd seen Sparks perform in New York in the mid-1970s, so it was a real pleasure to so conveniently be able to view the shows on my computer. Today I watched on my laptop from a Kinko's in Ann Arbor, arriving at 3:30, roughly a half-hour into the show. To my pleasure and surprise, I found myself there for another two-and-a-half hours! I haven't listened much to Sparks since No. 1 Song in Heaven, but now I'll buy several of the most recent CDs. As Russell said, I don't think this will be done again. |

this really has been a great month and almost every day looking forward to see the shows. I was really bumbed at first wheb I heard that they were playing all these shows in London,b ut when I heard that it was streaming online I quickly got happy again.
Offcourse it is not the same thing sitting in front off a computer (most times at work) as it is being there but happy to see anything.
For Ron & Russell to something like this in there age it is amazing, some people complaint about being sick but can you imagine them up on stage every night jumping around (at least Russell)
Anyways thanks to all off them for these AMAZING shows and we all hope to see them in our hometowns soon, or at least close by
