Our last concert was bittersweet, to say the least... John shared so many wonderful songs with us. Everyone listened intently with fragile emotions that, at times, spilled over. The combination of the room's ambiance, the realization that this would be the last time we would all be together on this tour, the tenderness and beauty of the songs, and the pureness of John's voice all served to make THIS concert our most treasured of the tour. We were honored and grateful when Paddy and his family performed a couple of Step Dances for us; and even more honored and amazed when his daughter shared a few tunes she has been learning. What a gift that was for all of us! It was so hard to turn in for the night... so hard to say goodnight, that many lingered until the wee hours of the morning. After all was said and done, each of us had shed a tear or two and left the room with a slightly heavier heart...
