Might have to agree to disagree on this point - the acoustics are wonderful in the RFH, have seen various concerts there over the years ranging from classical, to FC with Waterson:Carthy in 2002, Brian Wilson's premiere of "Lucky Old Sun", etc. and have always enjoyed the sound of the room. The QEH is a nice-sounding room as well  - have seen Judith Owen, and Gordon Giltrap in there this year. The major gripe I would have with the South Bank complex is that it looks hideous from the outside (60's architecture to blame) - not a great advertisement for the jewels within.
Actually, while we're about it...saw FC's winter tour @ Croydon Fairfield Halls in 2008, not the worst-sounding venue I've been to by any means. Was surprised by Chris Leslie's wonderful revival of "Reynardine" for the first time that night, and Ric bringing "Mock Morris '89" out of the vaults too - both pieces came across very effectively in this venue !

Well, from the evidence I reckon the odds should be quite low.

And if it's a euphemism then I'd worry greatly about the term "double-quotes"  Shocked

What I'm really asking is whether StevenGiles is actually two people using the same login to Talkawhile? In which case I'd like a quiet word please, Steven  Huh

Cheers

No, there's only one of me Roll Eyes I couldn't see an edit button, so I quoted what I was correcting if you see what I mean!

No problem Stephen  Wink

I have to check these things, and I do get worried when people start talking to themselves!

I shall edit this thread back into a sensible shape a little later on. As you were..!
