I have done some googling but can't find what I am looking for. Does anyone know what sort of set list we can expect. Thanks.

Sons have just got home from gig and are saying that he blew them away the o2 rocked. In their words much better then Clapton & they saw him in Malahide... What do others think... They both play guitar so they have some idea of what they are talking about, 1 of them plays classical guitar so I would say they know what they are talking about

Savman · 30-09-2010 12:45am

Yep, smashing gig. Santana never fail to deliver tbh, the latin rhythmic stuff may not be everyone's cup of tea but I was in me element

Red Alert · 30-09-2010 12:47am

My first time to see him live, it really was worth the money. He played for over two and a half hours solid. Definitely looking forward to seeing him again sometime.

gsxr1 · 30-09-2010 2:06am

That was musical Genius tonight. I have
2 picks and a t shirt from the crew.

Puts shame to most other acts I have seen recently.

Forest Master · 30-09-2010 7:37am

Really good gig - pity his guitar was feeding back the whole time.

And even though his fiance was great at her drum solo, you have the best drummer in the world (Dennis Chambers) having to sit out while she's doing it - bit of a waste!

i noticed that also. he was feeding back quite a lot. But he was using a lot of volume and was standing right in front of his speaker cab. feed back was inevitable. His cabs where cranked right up even before they went to PA.

It was also the first gig of the tour. teething problems.

Its hard to believe that young black girl was his girl. She was hot!!!!! I guess thats what it takes to break into the seen.. Her solo went on a bit to long.
Dennis Chambers blew her away with the first strike of the drums.

The whole band was soooo tight.

Yawlboy · 30-09-2010 12:03pm

One of the best live acts I've ever seen. Top class.

Savman · 30-09-2010 12:50pm

In fairness tho, Mr Chambers ripped our guts out when he finally did let fly. The guy is a phenomenal Drummer.

Keys player was just sex too tho, the band had that early Santana sound nailed last night. Fabulous show.

I'm sure Cindy will be secretly delighted you said that....she was born in 1959...;)

The feedback didn't come across where I was standing (about 11 from the front)- didn't notice the 1st hour passing, the 2nd hour was nearly the same as well...wow...what a concert....what energy...they really gave it bucket loads...definitely concert of the year contender..

corm500 · 30-09-2010 5:38pm

Cracking gig. Played just about all the tracks I wanted to hear...no Samba Pa Ti ...minor gripe though. I had heard that he was back in top form and it was true:)

wow. I seen her face to face in the canteen and had no clue who she was. I thought to myself "wow. nice bit of stuff" She is old enough to be my mother!!!. I guess rock drumming and salsa dancing keeps one young forever.

Podcast from Colm Hayes show on RTE radio 2 on the morning of 29TH SEPT 2010
An interview with Carlos ........... go about 30 odd minutes into it to hear the Carlos part

http://www.rte.ie/podcasts/2010/pc/pod-v-29091059m47scolmhayes.mp3

I have a SANTANA website up since 1999 here for anyone whos interested ,

http://www.iol.ie/~shango/

@ Ilovelucy ........ thanks for starting the thread

@ corm500 .......... same here , i was waiting for samba pa ti , europa or curiacion
( sunllight on water ) which i put up on Youtube a while back .

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTxo4rLQRHY

@ Cicero.... you made me laugh ;-) about Cindy

@ Red Alert . great to hear you want to see Carlos agaon , me too ;-)

@ gsxr1...........loved your comments !!

@ Yawlboy...... you drive up to Dublin ? , jez the road is fab now haha , i made it up
to Dublin from Cork in the same amount of time Carlos was on stage haha

I had gotten a new Hitachi digital Camera for my birthday , the quality from the video is
brutal to say the least, but i have 1 or 2 shots of the standing area , be glad to
send them to you , you might spot yourself lol

The standing section in front of the stage was packed it looked fab ,
we were in row 5 in the seats , Block E great seats , what a show !!!!!!!!

Theres a few videos of last nights show in the O2 Dublin on Youtube already
some in HD

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghGc_3GACFA
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXMgg5k05Gc
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhKg3LGKAWI
In the last video , Maria Maria , did that girl / woman say the word carbron
to Carlos .......... is it what i think it is ?? Carlos was in Good spirits , but that
must have peed him off a little .

I have seen Carlos 4 times now ........
1st was in London in 1989 , here`s a pic
http://www.iol.ie/~shango/carlos2%20london%201989.jpg
This is from a time when if you said Carlos Santana
the reply would be ..............who ??????????

Then London again in 1996 ,
Marley Park Dublin june 7th 2002
And last night in The O2 Dublin

First time i heard Carlos was 1984 , on a cassette tape , he was playing
Samba Pi Ti ( tnx Ski ) and from that moment on ..its hard to describe such a
journey !!

If anyone has pics or videos they would like to share , please give me a shout

Thank you !

We saw him in 2003 in Wembly Arena and much preferred him in the smaller enclosed O2.

We were in the front row and had a blast. Cindys drum solo did go on a bit but it was the interval so better than nothing. Large sections not sold though - people just don't know what they are missing.

Peace and love

Thank you Ilovelucy

We were in Block E . 5 row from the front , what block were you in ???
All in all it was a great Concert , did you check out the many videos of THAT night in the O2 up on youtube ???

Yes , i agree , i saw Carlos in 1996 at Wembly Arena , i was in row 10 that night and have to say that too was a great great night for me , but my favourite has to be The Hammersmith Odean in 1989 , sitting in row 4 only 10 foot away from Carlos , very intimate setting , it was a time when not many Irish fans knew who Carlos was , AND cameras were a BIG BIG NO NO , you were almost searched going into the Odean , i smuggled in one of those old 110 cameras , i got these shots of Carlos with it ,

There was a guy from Belfast siting next to me with his G/F .and he took the camera from me , gave it to his G/F who put it in her bra LOL , and they gave it to me when we meet up outside ...... Could never thank them enough !!

Thank you for the post Ilovelucy , im delighted yopu were there and enjoyed Carlos doing ...........................His Thing at aged 65
