Also downloaded video via torrent. Not fabulous HD quality or anything, but it was decent. Was really nice to see it again.

"Girl" was Sierra Noble. First time I had heard her. She was pretty good.

I'm getting the DVD tomorrow (Saturday) from the local guy! I'm 99% sure it's just Paul, though. I REALLY disliked Wintersleep. But loved Plaskett. Though I live in Halifax, I had never bothered to see Plaskett in concert before, and was pleasently surprised by how great he was.

Found someone here locally who got the PPV Halifax event - and as long as you either give him a DVD, or give him the cost to cover a blank DVD, he'll make copies of the PPV performance. Waiting to meet up with him to get my own copy! It is the whole concert, though!
I'll keep you posted on the outcome!

Thanks for the camera info, I hope it's the same in Boston.
You were allowed to bring cameras to the concert here, but you were not permitted to bring an SLR/detachable lens camera (what they deem as "professional" cameras). As I mentioned, I believe Maggie has professional cameras (I could be wrong, but I don't think so), so I'm not sure if she got hers in or not - but you might want to check with her, if you have an SLR. If you have a regular Point & Shoot, you'll be fine.
