Managed to grab a ticket for one of the Royal Festival Hall dates in August. I hate that venue though.

Got a couple of tickets myself, then realised it was on during the middle of the Olympics, so getting a hotel to stay was bloody traumatic need a mortgage for it.........

Edit..... Am now annoyed about this show as I'd have preferred sheing her here and no doubt it would have cost less........

Rant over........ :mrgreen:

Buy the Bath tickets and sell the Royal Festival Hall ones Jimbo at face value or highest bidder. A couple of tics on ebay at the moment, eight bidders with a day to go.

To late flights already booked and hotel is non refundable, as it was cheaper to book....

I misread your earlier post. Didn't realise you'd already booked the hotel and flights. Shame all round really, the Bath Pavilion looks a much better venue.

She really, from what I've read in interviews with her, Raymonde and engineers who recorded them (in Tape-Op Mag) the perfectionist a la Moulder in CT.

It seemed she had high hopes to work with Buckley before he passed.

She did work with Buckley, in the song All flowers in time. It is a bit weird to be honest, as if they weren't singing the same song.

in some interview a while ago she was ranting about that, how it'd been leaked without her permission etc and why can't people just not have everything - S4T take note.

She's a perfectionist.

Superb......

Will post proper review once home..........

But she sang "Song To The Siren" which made the expense well worth while........ :lol:

Glad you liked it Grumpy_Jimbo. To be honest I didn't know what to make of it, some of the songs were done really well, others were a bit meh, too timid in the way they were performed. But I wasn't familiar with some of the setlist. Wasn't helping that the row behind me was filled with talkers on their usual social meet up. :rolleyes:

There's already stuff up on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLC613ECB5AFF4732A&feature=plcp
