Where did Eric Leeds play?

After the 15th Rotterdam show Eric Leeds took over from Maceo. But he didn't play in Paris (Maceo did) and now I read he didn't play in Zurich either. Can you tell me at which shows Eric Leeds was performing and which shows afer the 15th he wasn't?

From Hamburg to Oberhausen?

I think Eric appeared in both Rotterdam & Hamburg during the soundcheck and followed the main show 'backstage' or rather sidestage to 'practice' his part.
As far as i know he was there for all shows from Antwerp up to and including Oberhausen.

Maceo performed all shows from London to Hamburg and now Paris.
Yesterday he had a show of his own, so he was not there. Don't know why Eric didn't 'replace' him.

Not sure who will be on horns (appart from Greg Boyer & Candy Dulfer) for tonight, Milan and the two Rotterdam shows Saturday. At the Rotterdam shows it won't be Maceo, since he's playing in Berlin that night.

Anyone know what was the size of the crowds at the European shows was? Most of the American concerts were between 1500 and 3000 ppl. I think a couple concerts were bigger.
Thanx for any info. -MrC.

It's true that VEGA has a capacity of 1.200 - but I heard there was around 500-600 present at the aftershow.

I was there and remember the main dance floor to be half empty at times. A relief, cause we had to move back from the stage after the first few songs. Unable to move. But in the back (we are talking about 7m from the stage) muuuch space and a very relaxed athmosphere.

If these figures are mostly true, I think that's quite impressing considering the lack of promotion and the ticket prices.

Funny, all round figures, except for Rotterdam. What's up with that?

I got it from their website www.ahoy.nl
It is the maximum capacity in the biggest possible configuration for the hall. Since both shows are 'sold out' I used that figure.
