The stage is up, looking quality. Handful of tickets left at Bar Monico.

I was going to ask how it went but after looking at the photos i think i know the answer What great publicity for the club, well done to the people who organized the event

Nice one Glen, Looks like we have got a good bit of publicity out of this.

This was indeed a top night. Thanks to all at CIFC who were involved in the organisation and to the friendly locals who contributed to a great atmosphere!

 

Seasoned BSP gig-goers (we're talking 100-150 gigs here) are rating last night amongst their all time favourites.

 

Good luck for the rest of the season!

Great post Dan, glad you enjoyed it on the 'Rock', and TGE, you can give yourself a big pat on the back, well done Glen.

I followed Ronin's link from another thread into the NME site; this is what i found - my gut reaction was to ask Glen what are the chances of getting Barry Manilow to come down and play for my mums b'day. Then the penny dropped I'd got the wrong end of the stick.

Well done to all involved - no such thing as bad publicity.

Here is a video from the gig with a bit of banter about the football club (it wasn't me singing Seasiders!):
