NOTES
-----------
"The show was pretty much entirely about Chris without directly mentioning him. It was clear Eddie couldn't bring himself to talk about it head on. He spoke a little how the healing process can start with music and made numerous references to how sad he was and how much he and his friends were struggling.

Frankly it is the bravest performance I have ever seen. At times it seemed like he was a word or two away from breaking into tears. He mumbled more than usual, he violently stamped into the floor on Immortality and others and after The End I thought he was ready to just walk off and not play anymore.

There were funny moments and he picked up in the second half. You could hear the crowd emotionally gasp when Light Years started.


On the outro to Sometimes he cried out "Where were you, dear God?" It was heart breaking."

and also
--------------
Fan screams
"I LOVE YOU"
Ed says
“Thank you.
I need it - we all need it.
I'm thinking of a lot of people tonight. And some in particular and their families.
And I just know that
Healing takes time
If it ever happens
It takes time
And
That means you have to start somewhere
So let it be music
Let it be love and togetherness
And let it be Amsterdam”
