She will begin chewing on the wiring at the start of the Finale to time everything just right so that she will be ready to go just as Billy is hoisted into his chair. It should be an amazing experience. I will be sorry to miss it. :lol:

Security... as in who will be performing that night?

The company does not provide information about leavers any more until the day of the performance, if then, and the policy doesn't just apply to Billys . We can't say why the company changed its policy, and it doesn't really matter, when you come down to it. It is what it is. We have already said that we have no information at this point to post about who may or may not be leaving, but if anything is confirmed, we will post it.

It sounds like a good reason to watch the Live DVD again today. Zach and Elliott are great performers in their own right, but their pairing together made any performance something truly unique. I hope they have a blast tonight!

I have tickets for five shows and was hoping to see them at least one time live. So I feel a little sad now. But let's look on the bright side, chances are better now to see all of the others. :)

Anyway, I'm looking forward to reviews and photographs from the show tonight!

Sad to hear they are leaving. I was lucky to see Elliott and Zach together 2 times. But that was long ago. I was hoping to get to see them again this year.
I wish them good luck for their future.

I pictured the 10th anniversary show with Elliott, I wonder who will play on the anniversary show now?!

Here's a link to my photos I took last night.

Thanks for the pics.

The anniversary would be a great opportunity to introduce a new Billy, as they did last year. Or they give Matteo the chance to do a full anniversary show. Or Bradley because of his extraordinary Electricity? I'm sure you can find good reasons for any of the boys. :)
