I saw their tour in Paradiso, Amsterdam. Magic concert!

Love this album. The solo that Larry comes back with after Luke’s solo in “Room 335” is absolutely ridiculous! Would love to have seen this in Paradiso (saw Luke there).

One of my best musical memories actually. Luke did a meet and greet after the gig, I chatted to him for a minute, told him I’d just flown in from Ireland that day for the gig. This was the time he had just announced that Toto was no more. As I was walking away I told him that, based on the quality of his new solo material, he had made the right decision. He pulled me back, threw his arms around me and kissed me on the cheek. All the (very tall, very cool) Dutch people were staring at me wondering what the hell was happening. I’ll never forget it. 🙂

David, that is a great story. At the time, you made him feel good about his decision. ✌?️??
