Bring on the Dancing Girls! Nice one, I'll try and get to the Sheffield gig. Bet you're sorry the Vienna date was cancelled.

Superb gig in Glasgow last night. The whole band was on superb form with Nik in really fine voice. The material from the new album sounds very good and the back catalogue went down a storm with the crowd. Songs both old and new sounded fresh.

Bob played a brilliant gig! I am loving his pocket. Everything he played was spot on for what each and every song required but not in a clinical way. His playing has heart and taste.

If anyone is still dithering about attending any of the other UK dates then don't. Get yourself along to one of the gigs if you possibly can.

Not been on this here forum for ages.

Just back from Shepherds Bush seeing Nik Kershaw, one of my all time favourite song writers/ performers.

Bob Knight... You sir absolutely nailed that gig!!! I take my hat off to you mate! Following in the foot steps of the other great drummers that have played on Nik's stuff... Vinnie, Charlie Morgan, Steve Washington, Simon Phillips... You played it spot on and true to the original material but with your own take on it.

Excellent!

Was going to say Hi if you came out at the end but didn't see you. Maybe at the London Drum Show if you're there.
