One Night of Queen

Hello again folks. So, the UK shows are over until mid May, and the US beckons, our longest tour to date in one country, just under 11 weeks. How did the last 2 UK shows go ?? well .. read on....

Glasgow was the first show, and always a nerve - racking night for all involved, being the home town and all. Playing to your Aunties is nearly what it's like, as this is the show that all the families want to come to. Backstage is like a family& friends reunion/ creche, chaos but fun.

The venue was completely sold out, which is a fantastic feeling normally, but in your home town it always feels special. And what a night it was. If there is such a thing as a perfect show, then this one felt like that. Everything was just right, and it was a magical night for all involved. "Barcelona" got another standing ovation, and from there the audience just seem to have more and more fun.

Next was Dundee, the final UK date. This is another one of those cities, and venues, that we like to play. The dressing rooms are very comfortable, and great to chill out in. Everyone was very relaxed and full of fun at soundcheck, i think the feeling of euphoria from the previous night was still there. I had a lot of fun at this one, joking about with the audience between songs, and just felling quite relaxed on the stage. A fantastic singalong crowd here as always, and we finished on a real high, a great way to end this part of the UK leg of the tour.

I'm sitting right now at home, writing this, instead of packing my suitcase, as i head off to the hotel at the airport tomorrow night, and fly out to the States on Monday. Keep looking on here for stories form the US tour, i'm sure i'll have lots to tell ....

Ta Ta for now ....
