Anyone else goto ToTo Live Concert in Cebu?

Anyone here in yahoo go Toto’s Live Concert last night or any recent tour over in Asia? And if so did you experience what my wife and I did? Here is what we experienced and was wondering if anyone else has also:

Last night I witness the most horrible performance I have ever seen when my wife and I attend the Toto concert last night here in Cebu, Philippines it’s like they were using the paying public that came to hear Toto’s hit songs to test the waters on different versions of the original song, they would start out with the music that was totally different of the original and when they didn’t get a reaction they would switch to the original and what’s up with the drummer and keyboard playing so long of a solo, I’m mean the drummer played GREAT but way too long as after he stopped it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop on stage. Toto’s performance I feel had a lot to do with alcohol prior and during the concert. I walked out in the middle of the concert with feeling cheated during the performance along with MANY others, in fact while I was waiting for friends there was so many leaving I thought the concert was over and my friends that didn’t even know we left showed up a few minutes later with the same thoughts. Maybe they feel that playing in a 3ard world country they can get away with what they did but in fact there are over 200,000 Americans that live here in the Philippines and there was many attending the concert which will properly be feeling the same as I do and now I wish I never went as I grew up loving the songs and now I have to remember how I seen Toto Live whom performed like they were kids trying to start a band in the back yard garage.

    Hey there! I also attended the concert last night! Here's my thoughts:

    It wasn't the worst concert I have ever seen. From a scale of 1 to 10, I'd say it was 7.5. Why? I understand why they played differently and sort of anticipated it. One reason is that their touring bang isn't the same as their studio band. Leland Sklar replaces Mike Porraco on base, but he's a great bassist so no problem there. Tony Spinner now sings "Stop Loving You" instead of Joseph Williams, although this has been going on for years now since Joseph left the band, but Tony's great, so no prob there again. But here's the big problem, David Paich isn't there. He's the guy that sings parts of Africa,I'll Be Ove You,Hold the Line and Rosanna. And there's the problem. They didnt really sing those great songs well,but at least they played it properly. They didnt do 99 and "I'll be over you" properly though. They said it wasn't planned. They didn't even sing "I won't hold you back." As you can see, I know a lot about these guys, and even if I wasn't born when these guys rose to fame, they are one of my top 5 favortie bands. And Africa is one of my top favorites. So yea, maybe it wasn't worth the price I paid, but I don't regret purchasing the ticket, it was close enough. To see one of my top bands playing some songs I like, even if they didnt really do it well because of age maybe, was a great experience for me. By the way Jeff Porraco was supposed to be on drums, but he died on august 5, 1992. RIP Jeff..
