Gig Description
after a long long day in the sun drinking anything we had and could buy we had a great spot to watch the whole day unfold, it started off with aloe blacc followed by imelda may who was pretty cool. i had been telling my 3 fellow gig goers how i was looking forward to seeing larry graham and grand central station to which i was met with frowns of " who the hell is he?" safe to say they were all won over after an incredible performance!!
one of the biggest shocks for me was how good the final warm up act was...tinie tempah!! i wasnt expecting that :)
so, the scene was set, the light was fading and up stepped 5' 2" of pure genius...in his pyjamas (or at least they looked like it)
he kicked of with the best sound check you're ever likely to hear and flowed through his catalogue of monster hits, lets go crazy, 1999, little red corvette, rasberry beret, purple rain and kiss to name a few, this gig is regarded as one of his best concerts for the casual follower as all the crowd pleasers were there to be heard, however for the hard core fans it was lacking a few b sides and more rare obscure tracks that we all like to hear, so after the 3rd encore and the final strains of baby im a star i think pretty much everyone left with something to treasure even if it was sneaking a bottle of vodka into the venue!!
