    It was an absolutely brilliant show.

    It opened with Rob Clements (of Lindisfarne fame), playing a mixture of his solo songs and lindisfarne songs. Definitely put himself and Lindisfarne on my list for further investigation...

    Thea's set was mostly material from her new album (which I bought at the venue), plus a few additional bits and pieces, and only two of her older tunes. She was also supported by Mark Radcliffe (radio 2, the mahones), Sense of Sound choir as well as her regular band members. Sense of Sound performed a couple of pieces themselves.

    Overall it was extremely good indeed, and at £12.50 a complete bargain. My only regret of the evening is that the last train from victoria was at 11, which meant a brisk walk as soon as the set was over (at 10:45) - this was a shame because Thea, Rod et al were meeting and talking to people after the show, and it would have been good to get a chance to talk to them.
