Aaaw, poor Chris.  Hope your son-in-law is feeling a lot better.
Can't believe the tour has finished but I understand the new one MIGHT start as early as March?? Yippie.
I was actually thinking of going over to Berlin but it would have worked out far too expensive and I should be saving up my little pennies (it would have been £600 for just one night for the two of us, I checked yesterday, it went up to £800 so I am sort of glad I was a little bit sensible for a change). And the most important thing: she doesn't do every evening so imagine spending all that money only to go and not see her at all.
Katy must be in Berlin by now. I hope she's gonna have a great time.  |

How disappointing for you Chris - I was only thinking about you today as well  . How ridiculous those train times. I used to work at Barnstaple in the early 70's and even then didn't rely on the trains on my weekly commute from home (Exmouth).
Never mind - lets hope you'll be able to see her next year as there will be a tour so I understand .
Hope your son-in-law is getting on OK.

Brilliant photos Speedbird - appreciate you sharing them with us. What a show, eh?
It was about 12 months ago now, if my memory serves me correctly, that we did the auditions for The One and Only...crikey, what a 12 month period that has been for our Katy!

Cool! I have the same (after some 'please please can i have it'), did you see my pic on Page 6? Katy signed it for me too I'm just going to add Sunday's ticket and then we're going to have it on the wall (in a frame). |

Marty- Katy did sing "simply the best" and i think another track but i cant remember what it was[/quote]
I believe it was a medley of River Deep Mountain High and Proud Mary.
I know it started with 'When I was a little girl' which is all the lyrics I can remember and which I keep singing at home and then the chorus was that of Proud Mary.

yes Speedbird the Chris Lowe lookalike was well funny, Katy nearly cracked up and lost the lines, Andy was in hysterics
Al done brilliantly i think he had trouble with his mike/pa
wish i'd known where you were sat i would have come and said Hi
"can i get a witness" is awesome katy's version is brilliant so much enthusiasm there it matches the video of Dusty on the U-bend video- the first time i saw Katy perform that at Worthing i was dumbstruck, i thought it was only Dusty that could make that number sound great- just proves just how good Katy is, IMHO
its a shame that there is only one date of Katy's Autumn Tour left' anyone going?????? but we have the spring tour to look forward to - i think katy will be joined by a few more "friends"
Any body not seen Katy yet??? micbo have you seen her?
thanks for all the comments on the photo's but i cant officially take any credit
thanks for the support of the incident- I'm not one for sitting back and staring- i believe in whats right

Hi Dave,
I'm fine thanks for asking. Hope you are doing OK after your little episode but I must say good for you Dave, I also hate bullying.
Do you recall what song sang as Tina Turner? I would love to see Katy sing like Tina. I know she got friendly with the "Tina" at the Legends concert in Vegas. Gee can't think of her real name at the moment, think it's Loni.

So glad you had such a fantastic time. Katy IS lovely no question, and has done us all so proud .
Thank you for your brilliant write up.
Btw, Julie's gig should be good - those who have gone to Katy's performances will know she has a pretty decent voice on her as well . Not far from where my cousin lives......I wonder

Speedbird had a superb time as well. It was an awesome performance from the band. This was my 4th concert and I can tell you it sounded different. Maybe it's to do with the fact that it was the 1 but last gig of the tour. Al Vosper did lots of improvisations and it sounded just so cool!!!
'Can I Get A Witness' sounded soooooooooooooooooooooooooo GREAT!!!! It sounded like a proper rock song, full of energy. It was certainly very memorable, I just didn't want that song to end
Tina Turner still makes me laugh so much! The way Katy overdoes her style is a true comedy, I absolutely loved it. Just couldn't stop giggling.
'In Private' was one of the songs I was most looking forward to hearing. I had never heard it before this tour. I have got to play it while I cook dinner and I cannot help but dance and giggle to myself. Silly girl. So when they started the PSB song-bloc (In Private / What Have I done / In Private), you suddenly saw Sam standing behing his keyboards with black shades and a baseball cap on..... looking really bored like Chris Lowe. It was so funny!!!!! I hope the others noticed him too because he was hilarious.
After the show I went up to see Katy and have my black CD signed (plus the tour CD for my sister in law's Christmas present) and she recognized me straight away and gave me a hug. Aaaaaaaaw, it felt so great to be one of those people she remembers (note how I felt like a 'little puppy' in Peterborough). I asked her about Berlin and now I finally know where she is going to sing (Stars in Concert).
Then I spotted Julie and she waved across the hall, saying hello to me.

By the way, she is having her own gig on Friday:
