have any posters been following the exhibition of popular music on the box this weekend?
some excellent new young acts there, madness, bruce springsteen, tony orlando, the list goes on.
the highlight for me was status quo featuring a bloke from st margarets.
they spare no expense at the bbc.

Which one was vic, i saw rick parfit and francis rossi. Joking apart I enjoyed madness they had the crowd going.Bruce springstein was excellent didn,t go much on Blur tho. Full marks to the B.B.C. for a change, their coverage was good.

Status Quo are playing an open air concert over here on 12th July?. Natascha is very keen to attend so trying to get tickets.Should be fun if the weather stays hot.
I haven't been to a concert since my Emerson,Lake and Palmer days..not that any of the forumites will remember that rock group.

Thanks Marek - she has been very poorly but is now much better; looking forward to a jar or two at Blakes tonight.
Love to you all - and Jersey too.
