Hey coves. I managed to get a ticket and got in to
see the show!!!!!! Huge queues (I had to stand for
16 hours in the rain) and heavy security, but well
worth the wait. Couldn't beleive it when Cyclefoot
came on stage. Haven't seen them since 1983 at the
last MOR. Great performance by Roddy H of an updated
classic 'A**** Mac******ks Not Dead'. And was that
ledgendary MOR producer Funky Ossian Stormwatch
helping out of backing vocals and acting as a music
stand????
Really liked Zing Pops funky update of The
RidersofRohan.Pity CJ couldn't make it over to sing
it. And as for Sheep Purple, they're even better
live than on their CD-Ep. Huge surprise seeing a
Swedish TV tribute band performing, but it was only
afterwards we found out it was drummer RH who was on
stage.Great acoustic treatment of Again and Hans.
And well, what can I say, after Bod Strummer came
the band I had waited 20 years to see.... The
Guireans, complete with long lost Guirean Neil The
Hippy!!!!! What a truimphant performance!!!!! And
they at last played Jazz Mucus.Well worth the wait.
And Dun Ringle were a nice way to round off a very
enjoyable MOR 03. Great that they remembered so many
lyrics and played some old songs too.
The Grand Finale of Feed The Sheep was brilliant.
Hope it comes out as a single.
Did anyone else manage to get a ticket????
