Smart-looking stage, too. Not just the attire of the performers, but the lack of messy cables cluttering up the floor. Also nice to see all the performers facing the audience. It all makes the point that the band and singers are there to please the audience, not just to please themselves.

It was a brilliant night with Ricky Valance looking amzing good for his years. Still got a good voice too, well most of the time.
Barry Noble who also sang to bt's did a highly credible job, mostly party style and got them dancing.
The Twylight Shadows and Cliff...as if were the "live" act and as it was our first outing together I thought we did well, the crowd liked us and that is the main thing.
