Someone from the audience said:'1998' and Roger said: 'Thank you, Sir' with a figurative tip of the hat and added: 'Such a long time and you all still remember me! - I am very excited to be here. When he introduced 'Give a little bit' he said how wonderful it is to be back in Vienna and he wondered when he was here the last time. He seems to have a special relationship with this beautiful city. The concert seemed to be special to Roger for at least one other reason and that other reason was Vienna. Vienna! This year's last concert in Europe for Roger and Aaron (Aaron was not there at the very last concert in Spain) and you could sense this very special feeling of a 'last night'. When it will be next year? Wait for me, because I want to be there again. It was time to share with friends and fans all that we received in each night. “Give a little bit” put the last drop on it. Roger is a genuine good heart, and his words are in agreement with his heart. “Easy does it” put all the audience whistling and all of us get together in the same tune. There is a part of the show that we are always hope that come and waiting for. Of course, there are a few favorite songs that I always hope that Roger play, and he did it!! I had in my eyes and in my ears “If everyone was listening”, “Hide in Your Shell”, “Lord is it mine”. Great sound in “logical song”, “Take the Long Way Home”, “Dreamer”. There was the opportunity to listen an extraordinary version of “Only because of you”, “Soapbox Opera”, “Fool’s Overture”. The set list was very specific in some of the songs, as there was an orchestra and choir in stage. The crowd were always with Roger, even when he broke one string of his guitar… But there is that stop Roger’s gift talent. It’s more warm, and much more audience participation. I really like better to attend the shows in a stand up position. Now that was me and my friend of this trips, watching our master, listening the legendary voice and the sound of the paradise. I remember the time in my youth that I have my bedroom walls with posters of Supertramp, and since that time Roger lead my music preferences. It’s a genuine emotion, a feeling that came inside from me. Any show that I attend of Roger it seems to me that is the first. The clock was running fast, and there was no time to relax. There was a few more fans coming around from other countries (hi Linda, hi Rudy), and we start a very good mood from the beginning as we meet each other. First time in Canada, and first time to see Roger Hodgson out of the Europe. With the 16 hours of flights and car drive, we arrive at the famous Casino Rama.

It was the last two concerts of the year for me and my friend Mário. Rama Review by Miguel Angelo Peixoto (from Portugal) So much so that as people were leaving, I overheard many say they are already planning to come back next year in the hope that Roger performs again at Casino Rama. The lyrics, sounds, vibe in the room – all was magical. Everyone had their arms around each other and dancing as if they were among good friends.įool’s Overture had everyone mesmerized. Toward the end of the show, Dreamer brought many fans to the front of the stage where complete strangers were no longer strangers. At times it was just Roger and his guitar. Every single song – Two of Us, Along Came Mary, Lord is it Mine, Give a Little Bit – was performed brilliantly. Classics such as Hide in Your Shell, Breakfast in America, The Logical Song, and Take the Long Way Home got people singing, clapping, swaying to the music, and remembering. The strings and horns and Roger’s magnificent voice all flowed together and the audience was his. The orchestra was so wonderful in accompanying Roger in the performance of his masterpieces. I met fans who even came from Europe and Mexico.Įach night was absolutely beautiful. I was truly amazed at the number of people who travelled long distances just for the shows. Many had made this an annual event and some were seeing Roger for the first time. People were there for one reason and that was to see Roger. While walking around the complex before the show, I could very easily feel the electricity and excitement in the air.

Roger had two sold out shows at Casino Rama on November 6 and 7 with a full orchestra and choir. I have had the good fortune of seeing Roger live several times and there is no other performer who comes even close in connecting with and pleasing the audience like he does. One cannot wish for much more of a greater concert experience than seeing Roger Hodgson.
