Last week we did a couple of shows with Bonnie over in Germany and at the second show it was good to get back into an Arena the O2 in Berlin (a little like the NEC). The soundcheck was going well but there was a brief technical problem and Tommy (on front of house) asked me to test my vocal microphone so I briefly played a new song 'Don't go crying for me' just piano and voice...it felt good to play something of my own through a great PA in a big hall...it was momentary but fulfilling.
Later that evening we were in the hotel bar and some of the guys from Chris Norman's band came in. The drummer and sound engineer came up and said they had arrived just as we were soundchecking and they heard a CD go on ...or at least that was what they thought until their sound guy said ...no it's the keyboard player!... It's about the nicest compliment I've had in ages and they said it stopped the band dead in their tracks....one day in another world there will be a JYB concert in such a place!:-)
