A guest on Steve Hackett · Sun, 25 Oct 2015
What a fantastic concert!..my husband and brother a bit fan of Steve Hackett in the 70s..now I'm a fan! Brilliant night!..Saw Mark Knopfler in May,thought he was fab,but think Steve and his band excelled!!

Perfection, well nearly; Hackett could have been louder in the mix...

How to compare with the Apollo gig last year? The only slight thing for me was the acoustic of the Lowry meant Nad was sometimes a bit drowned early on but that could have been me getting used to the acoustic as it was my first time at the Lowry.
This was an absolutely awesome gig; everything was nailed. My highlights were The Fountain, Hogweed, and Supper's Ready was as good as last year (I didn't think that was possible).
What a band! Tight as a Yorkshireman, with the added bonus this year of Beggsy. How good is this guy?
I'm a muso and he was as mesmerising to watch as Steve. Is that Chapman Stick a puzzle to be only played by 'special people'? That was my evenings' great distraction.
I cannot thank Steve enough for putting together a band like this. This was my best gig of last year; I can't see anybody getting near again this year. Superb.A guest on Steve Hackett · Sun, 02 Nov 2014
totally brilliant gig, most certainly Not short changed, I was at the genesis revisited in Liverpool last year thought is was brilliant, and to be able to see it again on the extended tour, well I was very happy plus great to see other tracks that we didn't see last year, great performance all round..... I'm very LUCKY!!

Really enjoyed the relaxed intimate atmosphere. Nik excelled himself and was on for ages. Sang all the old songs and some new. The graphics on the screen at the back helped enhance the solo performance.

Excellent gig last night. Steve was on fine form with a brilliant mix of solo and Genesis material playing them like only he can.
