Went to see Chris in Bristol last night (Sunday 16th March 2008) He was absolutely fantastic, probably the best I have seen him live. He was very animated on stage and seemed to be really enjoying himself. His guitar work was simply stunning especially in BB Was A Comanche which sent shivers down my back.
I thought the Delmonts bit was fantastic and worked really well, but to be honest I am not sure what the point of the Hofner Bluenotes is. It was Chris Rea doing lots of Chris Rea favorites and very little from the new album, but of course I have no problem with that! Looking for the Summer was really nice to hear live.
The man is a genius!
If you are going to see him live over the next few weeks, then you are in for a real treat!
