I know where you were sitting then! Just to the right of us because there was a hell of a lot of camera clicking :furious:
j/k.

The only actual annoyance at Ghost were the blokes behind us who didn't seem to understand the concept of being quiet during the songs. Oh and then the emotionless people at the front at Ki (had they even heard the album before turning up?!)

The touts were brilliant, massive bust up on Thursday between them and I believe at one point that day they were selling for 'Kevin Ghost' (yes, on Thursday)

Every show was amazing, I came out of Ghost without words. And then the guy with the camera came and interviewed us and all we could say was 'amazing, yeah it was amazing, can't even describe...' I had no words. In 8 years of gigging and 150+ shows (one of these 4 shows was my 150th, not quite on track enough to know exactly which mind) I've never teared up at a show, but by the time they were actually playing Ghost I was trying to tell myself to stop being such a sap.

But the whole 4 nights, they were something special, so glad I got to see them all. So glad I got the chance to see Anneke live as she's been one of my favourite singers ever since I started listening to metal! Kind of gave up on that hope after she left The Gathering.

Really wish I could do that all again. DVD will have to do.

Haha, ooopsy, it might have been moi. I couldn't resist though, as I just happened to have my DSLR on me as I was taking photos around London before the gig, I was expecting security to tell me to put it in the cloak room, but alas, there was no security which resulted in my being snap-happy.

Ok, so I know I don't post much, but here's what I have about the 4 shows:

Ki: really good, but people seriously need to know when to shut up......

Addicted: My favourite night by far, slightly biased due to having VIP and being at the front, but Anne's voice....just wow....also I think I really confused Faffy by giving her a ticket when I walked in....did you sell it/give it away??

Deconstruction: I went in with a brain, came out with scrambled eggs........

Ghost: wow, venue, music, had shivers down my spine, perfect ending to the nights.....

Oh yeah, and the outro of "As You Were" (from about 4:45 (album version) onwards) is/was/will forever be on of the most gorgeous pieces of music ever. I was head-to-foot with goosebumps at the show.

Haha, no worries. I would have done the same thing had it been me! Only noticed it at the end anyway,probably in a really quiet moment and far far less annoying that the chatterboxes behind us.

I got off lucky at the Ki and Ghost shows, it seems. Reverent silence all around. Shame the Decon show was full of rude, smelly dicks! Way to embrace the stereotype, some people!

It was long solo journey and I felt a bit of uneasy about my poor English.
Especially, I was so nervous first day. But Devin's show was very exciting!

I didn't believe I was in there!

Thanks for everyone to say hello me, and sorry about I can't speak a lot.
Until next time, I'll try to speak English well.

These 4 shows were some of the best moments of my life, period. At Ghost show me and my girlfriend got maybe the best seats in whole place, right in the front row in front of Devin. It was unbelievable experience to listen and watch him and the "Ghost"-band perform so close...

Oh, and I also got to thank him for everything and shake his hand there. He just seems so humble and warm human being. And I also got a pic with him.

Words fail me... These 4 shows were completely worth all the hassle with hotels, flights, undergroung etc. because it was my first time outside Finland (except Estonia, but that doesn't count). At times it was enormous pain in the ass to travel from Tampere, Finland to London. But like I said, it was _completely_ worth it. I also got to chat I little bit with some other Dev-fans. I apologize my poor english but I think that I made myself clear enough somehow. : D

Ah, so here are couple pics for the "proof". That head of some guy between Dev and me is kinda creepy. : D

Thank you all for this experience. Great people you are, indeed. That "Retinal Circus"-thing is tempting me and it is possible that I will be there. : )

Awesome! I'm the guy in the green hoody towards the right. I didn't get a chance to really speak to anyone other than ctfod, but it was nice being there anyway (albeit briefly).

Ah, well that makes sense because I realised the camera was quite loud in such a quiet concert, so only took a few photos for most of the gig, but then right at the end, I think during the encore, I decided sod it and started firing it off like a machine gun, lol. Was determined to get a decent shot of the venue, hehe :)

Same thing for me. I had bought a VIP pass for the Ghost show, with the sole purpose of thanking him for everything he does (it's not JUST entertainment for so many freaks like me), and he actually ended up thanking me more than I was thanking him :shock: . It's unbelievable how he cares for his fans....

Also, it was amazing, after the Ghost show, to see all these impressive, bearded, tattooed metalheads, surrounding Devin and smiling as if they were 5-year-old children meeting Santa Claus
