Good gig
Mike Sanchez the support was good and highly entertainng
once he went off. the 'compare' said we have a 'couple' (and i stress couple) of special guests this evening which got me dreaming ...
anyway. Jeff Beck wanders on and does a two (or 3) song instrumental set which was fine
then the Honeydrippers came on and did about 90 minutes of covers (including Big Log!) which was fine but the sound was woeful. Plant's vocals were muffled and quiet. even down the front it was hard to make out his words
i waited for the 'second' surprise guest but it never came. at the end of the set, i saw Beck's white strat being handed down to the stage. the band went off, and i assumed they''d be back on with Beck but nowt happened. shame
all in all. a good night out but the sound man should get a kick in the cock
