First of all, the audience of about 30,000 cheering fans who sang along to the songs. Most of them were in seats, so the two large video screens on each side of the stage were realy helpful for everyone to see the musicians.

Micky Welch, the new keyboard player, dd well on both the rock songs and the slow ballads, Welch has a very promising future with the band, 3 The problems started in the second halt of the concert. Something went wrong with the sound quality and the singers’ voices got lost in the overpowering music. Three songs later, the audience began to get impatient, because they stil couldn't hear the vocals. ‘And then suddenly heavy rain started and the concert had to stop. 4 Allin all, it was a very acceptable performance at the beginning, but a disastrous ending for the concert The organizers have promised a repeat concert for next Spring, Let's hope the eather will be better! 2.

Question: what connects these three things ~ a man with 2 story about an old grey cost; another man with a photograph of a painting of a dead king; and fishermen’s reports that they had heard gunshots? Answer: these three things coula help to solve the 120-year-old mystery of how King Ludwig of Bavaria really died. 2 Ludwig Il ~ often called Mad King Ludwig ~ was King of Bavaria in the 1880s. He was famous for building romantic castes, for spending a lot of money, and for being eccentric. One day in 1886, his body was discovered in a lake near Munich, cogether with the body of his psychiatrist. The traditional explanation was that Ludwig, who had emotional problems, drowned himself in the lake. 3 In 2007, however, new clues appeared which suggest a different interpretation of events. An old man from Munich remembers that as a child he had seen the king’s grey coat ‘with two bullet holes in the back. An are historian has a photograph of a painting of the dead king, which was done hours after the king's death, showing blood coming from the mouth. Ifthe king had really drowned in the lake, there would not have been any blood. And ewo fishermen reported in 1886 that they had heard gunshots on the lake. All ofthese clues have created new public interest in the case. 4 So the mystery continues. Was the king murdered? If so, who killed him, and why? The truth wilt only be known if his body can be examined by scientists. But or that to happen, his family have to give permission, and no-ane is sure if that will ever happen 9 Read the text move carefully.
