I not only saw a full 90 min. concert of just Leo, a chair & a 12 & 6-string, but also a private 15-20 min. soundcheck. He played at my school's Auditorium, and I was working the sound for the show, so I was privvy to this soundcheck. I was the assistant to the guy running the sound, so I didn't have to be back at the soundboard, and sat right up front and soaked it in. I was one of four people there: The main sound guy, me, the TD of the hall, and Leo. After they got the levels right, I helped him fix his guitar, and had a nice conversation. I tried not to ask too many questions, or bother him, and I think I did a good job in that respect. (I heard secondhand that he was kinda creeped out by internet fanatics, who know many details about him. I'm glad I kept it short ;-) The show itself was great, mostly instrumentals & great between-song dialogue, and it still blows my mind that he played on my cruddy campus. If you get a chance to see him, by all means, do so.
