'That
gig was so special because of its intimacy and Mal, Nigel and Lemar being
there. The venue was perfect for the numbers - you could get up really close
and personal and we even managed some banter with David and the band.
I was no
more than 6 feet from David, who was on a little raised circular stage area,
and it seemed that all the people there were either fans or there to listen and
appreciate the music.
After
the gig he was so sweet - sat, taking time out, waiting to meet us all - he had
a little word for each of us (I also got John's autograph and had a quick
chat). I felt so close to David that night and so privileged to see him perform
so wonderfully.
Happy
memories.' Mary
This was
the first gig that fans were able to attend, and many did and said what a
wonderful gig it was!
David
and the band were on top form and performed a full set from David's album Seven
Years Ten Weeks including - Follow Me,
Best Of Order, Time To Fall Down, Lazy, Bluebird,
Ok, Don't Let Go, Neverland, Long Time Coming, Stop Living The Lie plus
two fab covers, Mustang Sally and Sgt Peppers.
Many
reported excitedly how brilliant David has been, and how amazing his voice is
live. That there was a good amount of
banter with the band and David was so relaxed, funny and down-to-earth.
Fans
said that they loved the raw, live sound that the band did. That they were fantastic and it was amazing as they have only been
together for such a short time. They
thought David's album seemed tame by comparison!
‘I am
hoping that David will get to produce the next album by himself so that it
keeps the 'live band' sound.....and
leaves out the female backing singers!’
‘It was
a night I will never forget.'
