Today was a day touched by God, after listening so many times about the concert on radio, and without so much money i decided to go to concert in every way. One person who loves me finally help me to get the funds to be able to buy two tickets. Always I want to get earlier to any place I must go. Respect my time and the other's is priority for me. I arrived to N.A. a7 7:15 pm, just in time to walk around, looking all things near. At 8:15 pm we walk into the hall to enjoy the concert. First I have locations at the second floor but the organizers send us to a nearest place below the first floor. There´s only 3 minutes to begin the concert an operation manager said to me: I have a surprise i will change your locations just at the second raw, maybe sounds incredible but it happened. I felt God made it, this miracle is the reason that i feel now like in special place enjoying your music. As you said live, your music makes me happy and you have done it. I´m sure you remember me i was a guy who dressed an orange jacket with yellow shirt, many times i put my hands with clenched fists trying to show you how your music makes me not only happy, makes me feel very logical and makes me cry but not sad. I felt complete honest, clear and remembering how you said the world is difficult but anyway these night will be to enjoy and know that God is with us and we have reason to be. Your band is incredible, finest musicians and incredible persons, you stole our heart to. Speaking in Spanish our language was like trying to connect with us, fortunately now you will know that our connection with your soul and music has mora than 30 years. I wrote you in your guestbook, since i was 8 years old i have been lucky about discovered Supertramp music on an old recorder in seat back on my mom's car. I was complete sure that you´re so talent person but today i confirmed that there´s no only music in your life, you are a person who deserves making people happy, surely God is watching you all time. Listened you about come back makes me happy twice or more. My wife told me that there is so much time that not see me happy like this incredible night. I´m writing you to say THANK YOU in capital letters, THANKS YOUR BAND and please don´t forget us because MEXICO IS VERY GOOD COUNTRY and our people deserve see you once again. GOD BLESS YOU, ROGER
~ Miguel Angel Esquivel


Thank you very much for this great moment, with that great music that fills us with emotions, after having a bad day you completely transformed, thanks again and to continue their journey full of happiness. Great concert, very good. ~ Oscar


This concert was a mystical experience! First of all: I dream about Supertramp 5 months ago, I did a google research then trying to find out if this band had ever came to Mexico, the answer was NO, but I found Roger was about to come! So I got somehow telepathic communication, no advertisement from the media AT ALL and I went to buy 5 tickets. Second, in 1990 I had a cassette while in college (proudly ex-UNAM), somebody requested it and never returned it to me! AND there was ONE MAGICAL song which I couldn't name nor listen since then, no single radio station played it. I listened almost every album without finding the song, I have been in rock forums for years looking for this song (Rock 101 for instance or WFM). the only way to ask for the song was trying to SING IT! how hard! NOTHING. But today Sir Roger Hodgson himself presented the song and named it! IT IS: ***** IN JEOPARDY! ******* I wonder why no single radio station played it, this epical song was not on The Billboards either! what a beautiful song! Obviously now I have it in my iPhone along with the lyrics. Third: months back I requested here to YOU Roger the song BABAJI, which sadly was not performed, but it doesn't matter, I will be in INDIA soon! you can imagine why!!! All the concert was a excellent, I missed the orchestra. It may be the very last rock concert that I go in my life, I've seen it ALL since 1989. Very very few concerts leave the whole auditorium full of joy, full of energy! everybody in the end was very happy my friends! Read the Lyrics, very deep: Logical song for instance, 100% compatible with Human awakening. So, people: Awake, awake! By the way I'm doing 100% electric car conversions for those interested in CHANGING our environment. So Roger: "where is the Golden Age" it is HERE!! Go Green, Go Veggie! I went to the concert riding my bicycle!! ~ Hector Ruiz

It has always been about music (my life). Thankfully, it never stops surprising me with experiences that make me remember the importance of celebrating the joy of life through music. Yesterday, I had one of those experiences in your concert. I want to thank you for the music you've created and collaborated to create, the music you've sung, the music you've played and ultimately, the music you've shared. I feel blessed to be able to enjoy many types of music as a player and a listener, but I must confess yours is a highlight in my life. Please come back to Mexico someday, many of us love your work and are looking forward to hearing from you again. P.S.: "Hide in Your Shell" and "Give a Little Bit" took me back to my childhood, I'm 21, so it was not so long ago, nevertheless, I will take this experience in my heart for the rest of my life, and I promise it will be part of the inspiration for my very own music. Greetings. ~Jorge Mayer


In 1983 I was a university student in Mexico City (way before the new generation of concerts were aloud in Mexico) and it was around that time that I started really getting into the music that today is part of what defines me as a person and buying my first LP's. One of the first ones was PARIS and I remember myself playing it over and over and fantasizing about how it would feel to be in person in a concert like that. Yesterday, about 30 years later, I had that experience. I felt complete, realized, a university student again, with all the feelings and anecdotes of that time filling my head and my heart while getting the grasp that I wasn't in the Pavillion de Paris hearing music that I love. I was in my home town, with my people, with my wife, living a concert that once I thought could only be a Dream and feeling and understanding the music so much deeper than what a 20 year old boy could have done so. I want to thank you for composing, playing and sharing your music with us yesterday at the Auditorio Nacional. It was a great night. It was not only a check mark of one of the things that I wanted to do in my life and have not had the chance to do so. It was an experience that made me feel that music is not only accords and verses. It’s energy, it’s magic, and it’s sharing and receiving. And I experienced it first hand with you and your music. Thank you. God bless. And hope to see you again soon back in Mexico City. ~Benjamin Lozano


Es usted un REY. Que gran concierto el de anoche, en el auditorio nacional, muy emotivo, por favor regrese el próximo año a México. Please come back to México City the next year. (Are you a KING. What a great concert last night, in the National Auditorium, sorry very emotional, please come back next year to Mexico. Please come back to Mexico City the next year.) ~ Fátima


Thanks for a wonderful concert last night. I was so fortunate listening all you have to say in company of my life partner and true love, and specially with my son. Your music is a blessing for all of us who are hungry for goodness and love during indecent times. Your music truly comes from the heart. Please don't stop writing. After listening "Death and a Zoo" live for the first time, as many other great songs, I wonder how many other 60 gems you have to offer. Your music is really a beautiful gift, and I am so grateful to you for sharing. "Gracias" again!

~ Franz Mora


What a fabulous show last night at the Auditorio Nacional!!! Thank you so much for your soul, generosity and passion for music and people. See you soon again!!! ~Juan & Marce


My name is Christian Eduardo Hernández Quiroz, I want to say to you that the concert you gave yesterday in Mexico City was maybe the most incredible concert I have ever been at. You made me happy, you made me laugh, you made me dance, you made me cry (literally cry), you made me remember those memories in my life that lead me back to a beautiful past inside me when I became one with your beautiful music and you as a soloist and when you were with Supertramp. Along with those feelings also came melancholy... I used to listen to Supertramp when I was younger in middle school, and mostly when I was learning to play the guitar, I found in you a very special kind of music that I never heard before and that I'm never going to leave. One day, when I was younger I was watching videos from 1970's and 1980's and suddenly came a video about a man playing a keyboard along with other guys. I was really amazed because even though I had never heard about them before, the music and the lyrics evoked in me something very special, I sought for the name of the song and I learned that the name of the song was "The Logical Song" and that the group was "Supertramp". That was the the first time I knew about you and Supertramp and when I fell in love with that beautiful, honest music. I'm just 24 and I didn't live in the 80's or 70's but I think that is not a barrier to love your music, I honestly say to you that you inspired me, not only you as a musician, not only to learn to play the guitar, not only to learn to play the piano, not only to sing, but also as a person and human being... as a TRUE artist and angel... I know I'm still young but, that doesn't mean I don't know your music and lyrics, I really love and live your music like if I was in the 80's or 70's. I really want to thank you for being who you are, honestly, I want to thank you for make me happy, for building my dreams, for you to exist and for giving the world a lesson on how to be a REAL artist. It would be a dream to talk to you in person and to play with you someday, I really don't know if that will happen one day, but, I only know that I have seen one of the most, if not the most, talented artist and musician of our times. I love you  ~ Christian Eduardo Hernández


How could express with words how much your concert last night in the Auditorio Nacional means to me??? Every song brings to my mind wonderful and warm memories of my childhood and was just like listening in a very magical way the soundtrack of my life. The beloved Logical Song, Breakfast in America, It´s raining again, School bonded with music that touches the soul like Death and a zoo or Hide in your shell creates one of the most memorable nights in my all life. Thank and GOD BLESS YOU. Please come back soon. ~ Angie Quintero


Last night, at Auditorio Nacional, was way beyond my wishes, you transported me to a place that I thought was lost. And a very special thank you for playing me "Don’t Leave Me Now".
