Hello, Van Morrison tonight at The Bridgewater Hall,Manchester. First time I'll have seen the old scrote. I don't even own a single recording by him either,although I believe that the guitarist in his stage band is Mr. Mick Green,who still can 'wow',especially when playing old-school R'n'R with The Pirates. In fact,I wish it was The Pirates on tonight! Cheer

Hello, One of the most special shows I've ever been at-opening night of their reunion at The RAH,Monday May 2nd 2005. Simply put-me and my mate were two of the luckiest b'stards to be there-unbelievable! And so begins my habit of taking ropey photos at shows! Cheers, Si.

Hi Gazza and Adrian, I'm still in a state of shock as to how @#$%& tremendous that show was-stuff like that should be compulsory! Hopefully see you in Dublin for Bruce malarkey. Cheers, Si.

Hello, Logie-cheers for that,and it was great to (briefly) meet you.Maybe see you in Dublin for Bruce and a beer! Train-Neil fielded a call from Hollywood enquiring after Ralph Molina's availablity,hah-hah! SD-I'm sorry but the ticket is now gone:I hope you do get in. Cheers, Si.

Hello, First time seeing NY and wasn't sure what to expect really because I only know his 3 cd 'Decade' greatest hits.Yes,I am ashamed of myself. The live reviews for the UK shows so far have been ranging from delirious to merely ecstatic,but I reckoned that no-one could be that good.Yep,I reckoned wrong.

Hello, Just back from Morecambe,which must be the horizontal-rain capital of Europe.Mental weather. Anyway,just saw Mr. Hugh Cornwell perform his solo acoustic show in what used to be a railway platform.

Hi EC76, He is finishing this UK leg at some place in Dartford named after some singer...name escapes me,heh-heh-heh! Unfortunately it is a sell-out but there will always be folks who need to return their tickets.Good luck! Oh yeah,the Mick Jagger Centre! Cheers, Si.

Hello, Back to the Lowry to see the bloke who used to front Mott The Hoople,now playing with Steve Holley (drums and vocals and banter) and James Mastro (frankly amazing guitar and mandolin),in support of his latest album,"Shrunken Heads".

Hello EG and Adrian, I think that's how Adrian 'suffered' his injury in the first place,heh-heh-heh! Sorry to hear about your setback A.L.-if you do have to defer I can only imagine how disappointed you'll be,after all the hard work and anticipation. I wish you a miracle recovery! Cheers, Si.

Hello, Just back from seeing someone about whom the word 'legend' could be used fairly-Ms. Warwick. Now 67 years old,and in discomfort from a (hopefully temporary) foot problem she still managed to hold this audience for 2 hours-plus,with a deserved 20 minute interval! Basically the show is DW charting the course of her professional life through anecdotes and song. What song

Hello, Yep,that is the one thing you are guaranteed from PT-an honest answer. Trouble is though the sod reserves the right to change his mind,but whatever he says is what he believes to be true...at that moment. Cannot help but love him for his candour. And the songs. And the guitar-mauling. Alright,so far it's candour,songs and guitar-mauling,but really...what else has PT done?
