Is this something else that Bryan is "contractually obliged" to do? Possibly part of the STL promotion? At least he will add some much-needed style to the programme if last night's pathetic offering (watched purely in the interests of research you understand!) is anything to judge by.

Johnny, Thanks for the review at ten to five in the morning ! Was it as good as Petworth ? Can't believe dropping The Only Face, Avalon, and Do the Strand. I would have thought the 3 least likely to go from this tour would have been them. Is the Castle Howard gig sold out? - Sue & I will be going if not. Any local knowledge of where best to stay ?

Rob - some friends of mine got tickets for Castle Howard yesterday (through Ticketmaster) and also managed to book accomodation in Malton (nearest town). So hopefully you're not too late. I hope he restores Face, Avalon and Strand (like you, I'm surprised those three were dropped) - perhaps he'll do the whole set at Castle Howard!!

Seems to rile me every time - sorry for leaving the "s" off of "seems" in my earlier post on this subject. A glaring oversight on reflective waters, my careless error. And the "back peddle" was supposed to be "back paddle"! - flows better with the intended analogy (poorly crafted boat, sink). Damned indigestion, really must decline further invitation to any regatta offering rancorous cant and tack-less fare. Epsom salts, please. And toss that crab pot starboard. Full sail, Bermuda's pink sands two days ahead!!

I just received the video from Ida Miller in Calif. (thanks Ida!) It is sooooo good! I had a very busy week socially and looked forward to doing nothing Friday evening. So I poured myself a glass of wine and got into bed and watched it! I so enjoyed it! Good quality, good sound and Bryan gave an outstanding performance! By the way, who is the pianist? He was awesome! I am so happy to add it to my BF/Roxy collection!

I'm staying with (distant) relatives - sadly and inexplicitly not BF/Roxy fans - in Burythorpe (somewhere in the area apparently, but Yorkshire is new territory to me, a Southerner born and bred!) as I'm going up a couple of days earlier. I hope to meet up with you all this time. I hate to wish the "summer" away but the Petworth experience was so good that I'm counting the days (only 14 days to Ragley Hall.....).

Dear All, Before I crash (metaphorically and literally) into bed for a well-earned proper nights' sleep, I just wanted to say Tatton Park (was it really yesterday ?) was great but Elton Hall was FANTASTIC ! This was due in no small part to the Avalonian camaraderie and banter going on in the cheap seats. The rain may have come down like stair rods (a hard rain indeed...!) but it was unable to quench the warmth of the assembled multitude (a truly cosmopolitan affair with English, Northern Irish, Scottish, American and Australian nationalities represented). We should do this more often...! A tremendously confident, roaring show which really fired on all cylinders - 'Out Of The Blue' and 'Do The Strand' were, for me, the best I've heard them this tour and 'Hard Rain' was easily the equal of last night (and no lyrical slips this time !!) Which brings me to the reason for my short interim post - the failure why they didn't do an encore at Tatton Park. A quick chat with Nils Solberg before this evening's show confirmed my own suspicion that the fireworks had started prematurely - he, like us, had been expecting to encore with 'Do The Strand'...! Shades of Frejus all over again... I'm (yawn) off now - more later Ive. P.S. I'm sorry to say that in the short time since she arrived on these shores, Debs has managed to achieve such a consistent level of disgraceful behaviour that we have had to appoint her an honorary UK Avalonian. More on that later, too...S;^) ___________________________________________________________________________ Come to Las Vegas and hear the indestructible tagline sing selections from "The Jazz Singer" !
