Great set, I suppose it was roughly 50% acoustic on his own, and 50% electric with the band. And 100% brilliant.

Seemed a bit nervous, almost overawed at the start but warmed up and was amazing with Morris On also.

Very, very good - both acoustic and with the band, who all just seemed so happy to be playing together. They were having fun, and that transmitted itself to us.

The man can do no wrong in my eyes, ever. Really fantastic. Whenever I see/hear him, I am always in awe of the musical effects which one man and one guitar can produce. This was no exception.

i had to wake my wife when he played Persuasion, as it was our first dance at our wedding 10 or so years ago.  |

Just brilliant. Absolute master. His voice is like velvet! I was hoping to hear Beeswing but the set was still wonderful |

Wonderful. Lovely to hear him with Christine Collister again and when the band came on, all was right with the world. If you set aside Saturday night, my highlight of the weekend, without question

Not that this probably matters to anyone else, but was that his knackered old SOTL-era Strat, or a modern reproduction? Enquiringly guitar geek minds need to know.

I wondered that. He has been playing a Ferrington Custom whenever I have seen him recently. Paul |

I seem to remember the SOTL Strat having a maple neck rather than a rosewood capped one...but I may be completely wrong...  I'll get my anorak... |
