Not many changes of the set list – but Van cuts it short, only 18 songs tonight – maybe he’s got to catch an early flight home ? But nevertheless it’s a beautiful concert for some reason:
He sings ‘In The Afternoon’ instead of ICSLY, a wonderful subdued version. This definitely makes my night – how long have I been waiting to hear this one live on stage ???
Van is in uncharacteristically chatty mood in Francfort tonight – he approaches the audience and talks a lot, tells even stories (Van !!! Stories !!!). For example, he explains how he played gigs in Francfort, ‘in 1962, before most people here were born …’ When someone in the audiences shouts out loudly and repeatedly a request for some old song, he says ‘That was some other me …’
And even when he criticizes what he thinks are failures of his musicians he is still in good mood and jokes to Tony on the fiddle: ‘Do the picking thing!’ A little later ‘He’s got it!’
John Platania plays a stunning guitar solo on ‘Nightclub’, Van great sax on ‘Soul’.
So, another superb concert to remember. And besides the music, we will keep it in mind particularly because of Van being so communicative …

Van served an elegant mix of new songs and old hits. Soul ballads and hip Rhythm'n'Blues, thanks to a lively backing band.
