I've been there, the boys first sat underneath
us (I went with a fellow pethead who lives in
Hamburg where that happening took place and
we sat on some kind of 'balcony'), a cap and a
bald head, later they have presented 'Miracles'
onstage and have received their Award. Every-
one was in suits except from Chris, the pictures
in the press looked funny.
