Hi,
Just back in from the Harrogate gig. Brilliant, Chris gave a great performance, anyone thinking it will be the same as the last tour forget it. He seems to have more energy, is looking really healthy, and the change of band line up has put a breath of fresh air into the show.
The crowd gave him lots of appreciation and were stood up dancing, unusally for an all seater gig at a Chris Rea concert in my experience.
Also a special mention to the warm up artist, Nell Bryden, don't miss her, a really good singer songwriter from New York. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiepgV6N ... re=related She played a five song acoustic set and went down well.
