A fantastic evening, venue is perfect and much more personal than the larger concert venues. Sound was amazing although from wher we were sitting the music drowned out Jim's voice on some of the tracks.
This was the best concert I have ever been to ( and I have been to 13 Simple Minds concerts now) They just get better and better. Jim was ill but it didn't notice- he was fantastic. Charlie's playing was out of this world. If I could have chosen the songs I would have picked exactly the ones they played. I was in the front row and the sound was perfect . Everything was perfect. The interaction that goes on between the fans and the band is amazing, especially Charlie and Andy ( but not saying it was any different with the others, just I was infront of Charlie and Andy. What a perfect perfect night ....can't wait till the 02 but will miss the intimacy .
Fantastic as usual, nice venue, very homely and personal. Set list too was good especially white hot day straight after the break. My one only niggle is the music over powers Jims vocals an Charlie's guitar was sometimes lost, it could be we were seated upstairs in front of the left side of the stage! It would be nice if people in the middle would give their views just for comparison? Roll on November at the O2 Arena.
