Well thanks Evelyne, but that's not going to happen anytime soon, unless Chris comes to America :(
If I'm ever able to come to Europe, I'll make sure to do it while he's on tour.

My only consolation right now is that we're going to see BB King in concert at The House of Blues in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, here in the U.S. But that's strictly blues, no rock.

Hi,
That sounds great. We just had a little BB King at the concert Of Chris when he played "BB is a Comanche" with the Delmonts. When you hear that song, close your eyes..and you'll hear BB.

Hi

Did Chris play any of his old music during the concert? I read somewhere that he would play some of The Delmonts and then music from the Hofner Blue Notes including some of his old tracks?

Thanks

That's great - thanks

I didn't realise he would play so much of his old music. I thought it would be mostly new material (HBN) with two or three old tracks thrown in. My 2 sons will be pleased - they're 9 years old and big REA fans. I'm taking them to see him for their first time in March in Plymouth, UK. Looking forward to it!

'pink guitar' and 'french football' seemed to be dropped from the playinglist, along with 'fool'...
