Interesting to see Wakeman in Cuba, hopefully his presence and those of others who visit will break the tyrrany under which the Cuban people live. Showing them what they are missing will cause them to pause and think of ways of ridding themselves of Castro.

The only thing the story missed was the story behind the several hundred fans present at the show. These are usually party hacks driven there by the Communists to put on a good face. It's interesting to see that they held the show right across from the US embassy to drive the point home.

As a long time resident in south Florida and seeing the havoc Fidel has caused to the Cuban community in exile; it won't be soon enough that his time on this planet be over.
