Excellent end to the tour last night. No great surprises during the first half with a fan's choice of songs that hardly 'pushed the boat out' so to speak. Thought Nothing is Sacred was one of the best live versions of the song that I've heard. Maybe it was because Steve seemed to get all the words right for a change! The second half 'Best Years' performance was spot on and once again helped so much when the words and lyrics are rehearsed thoroughly and remembered in full adding to a brilliant delivery of such a great album. We'll miss the Mona Lisa Twins a lot. Their backing really enhanced so many of the songs and if they fail to make it big by themselves they should consider being part of the new look Cockney Rebel. Hat's off also to Jim and Duncan. Jim's guitar really stood out as it did back in 75/76. All in all a really successful tour which should be repeated next year with the complete Timeless Flight album. Hand's up who would like to see that??

Me Me Me. My hands are up. :)

P.S. Steve spoke loosely on Radio Kent on Monday about wanting to do an acoustic tour next year with Mona, Lisa and Barry. Sounds good to me!

(A Timeless Flight tour is bound to happen as a natural progression, don't you think?)
If you can't say something nice don't say nothing at all.
