Has anybody a concertreview on this northeuropean tour?!

I would like to hear how Albert Lee and Andy Fairweather-Low are handling the guitars.

They're handling them axes in an absolutely awsome way. And with a lot of humour. Andy does a "noisy" sequence, to die for. Saw them in Oslo and Hoenefoss, Norway, and just loved it. Eddie Floyd also came along, and KNOCK ON WOOD was a killer! If you have the chance - GO SEE THE RHYTHM KINGS!

I am going to see them Herning sunday evening - I am looking forward to this maybe last Bill Wyman tour.

I saw them on Monday and Tuesday. Albert and Andy were brillant.

Beautiful guitar playing by both. I saw them in Tampere, Finland, few weeks ago. Great concert over-all if you like that sort of relaxed attitude of "let's just play some old standards that we liked when we were kids, and have as much fun as possible". A superb "house band" I would say. Eddie Floyd is a nice extra.

And jeez, Bill Wyman is a cool guy. Just standing there, no moves, just fingers swinging without much effort, and looking and giving smiles and eye signals to the nice looking ladies in the first row. And staring my girl friend's breasts... That dirty old devil...

Will they play in Spain?

i saw them on Warsaw - absolutely cool and brilliant

Their performance in Skien was a killer. Albert Lee did some awesome soloes, Andy wasn't in the same shape as he had to handle a hangover from the night before. But Beverly Skeete is Bill's answer to Lisa, tremendous voice, espesially when she covered I put a spell on you. You sure have a great night to look forward to.

The tour will end in the Netherlands in january - Spain is not included in this tour only scandinavia finland germany and the netherland

Thanks

There seems to be a TV-concert this Saturday night - well actually early sunday.
check this thread: [iorr.org]

Well I went to the concert last night in Herning Denmark the second last in this
this time. In these very minutes the Rythmkings is playing the last gig in Hamburg. I saw some very good musicians doing their 40th gig in app. same number of days. They were in a good mood and were having a great evening although they seemed a little tired. Andy Fairweather was in reel rock/blues mode and had a sore throut and a total distorted guitar sound. Albert Lee played as good as ever
and horn section were fantastic and very very funny.Beverly were singing absolutly marveleus.

The set was like this:

'You Can't Sit Down' (instrumental); 'Jump Jive & Wail' (Albert Lee); 'Baby Workout' (Beverley Skeete); 'Too Late' (Terry Taylor); 'Jitterbug Boogie' (Albert); 'Harlem Shuffle' (Beverley/Andy Fairweather Low); 'All Night Long' (Bill Wyman); 'Mystery Train' (Andy); 'Soul Man' (Eddie Floyd); '6345789' (Eddie); 'Flatfoot Sam' (Beverley); 'I Shall Not Be Moved' (Andy); 'Taxman' (Beverley); 'Race With The Devil' (Terry); 'Muleskinner Blues' (Albert); 'Hit The Road Jack' (Beverley/All); 'You Never Can Tell' (Bill); 'Bright Lights, Big City' (Andy); 'I'll Be Satisfied' (Beverley); 'Raise Your Hand' (Eddie); 'Knock On Wood' (Eddie)
We came offstage to massive applause, then returned & did encores. Encores: 'I Put A Spell On You' (Beverley) & 'Tear It Up' (Albert)
