us: "thank you, we were re:order"

highlights: the ones in the backdrop were most noticeable. otherwise, it was meeting alex and tony from beckindale.

notes: a good set performed with verve and brio - curiously, a little underwhelming for an audience intimidated by the wide open spaces in front of the stage. perhaps the band was responsible for a lack of interaction with their audience as the dearth of witticisms and homilies above illustrate. the paradox continues: how does one project the personality of a band when they are reknowned for NOT having an image. is it better to live in the moment and present a live and engaging show for the punters or to adhere to a tribute form and remember the spirit and style of the original band even if it alienates the audience..... ??
answers on a ten pound note please
