Everyone seems to be searching for signs of Francis acknowledging Rick on stage and he really does seem to make a point of looking to the heavens at the start of Dow Down in this recent clip ... and a start to Down Down Ive not heard before either, sounded quite good. Definitely plenty of energy in this clip at Schopfheim. www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0WcwZBtihw

The intro of DD seems to be the one time on stage where Francis has been showing some creativity in recent years. This is yet another nice version. Feom the video it's hard to tell, but to me it looks like Francis lets Ritchie sing the parts that are too high for him - or at least along with Rhino. Maybe the start of introducing Ritchie as a singer .. Yes, Francis looks up demonstratively twice and it could well be because of Rick - I haven't seen him do it before. On the other hand it could simply be part of the show - or both. Well, I guess everything they do up there on stage is automatically part of the show and would be another reason why he'd not do or talk about losing Rick. Could be seen as milking it ..

Not convinced about the looking up thing. Looks like he's spotted a moth or something. It was hardly a moment of quiet reflection
