Saw that news earlier, well done Craig

Based on his tweets, he went and seemed positive about the first half, he hasn't posted since

Back to Bristol I go and to Thekla were I've previously brought you photos of Frost* and Lonely Robot. Tonight it's Myles Kennedy.

Someone did lend me Yes Songs years ago, and again it did nothing for me and I couldn't listen to it all the way through.

Since the Bristol gig, I've tried a few times to listen to Yes.  I still don't like Anderson's voice.

I did make it all the way through this version of Awaken that TA tweeted to someone:

I'd previously tried listening TFTO but only managed to get about half way through side 1 before turning it off.


I did find his voice less grating than I usually do so maybe I'll give it another couple of years and try again.

Thanks Rog 

Thanks Owen, I've now seen a total of 3 Yes songs live, I got to shoot two songs last night 

I left straight after and headed for the train station, caught the next train to Cardiff.  Got my laptop out on the train and imported my photos, had a bit of wait in Cardiff for my next train so did my editing in the waiting room at the station.

Emailed the photos to the reviewer after I got home at around 23:40.

He had the review online before I'd got out of bed this morning (I had the day off).

Thanks to Yes RT my link to the review my twitter notifications have been quite busy for me.

Thanks Owen, and I'm afraid I did have to leave after I'd photographed 3 songs, as it was a Friday night I opted to head home rather than stay over in Bristol like I do if it's a midweek gig.

Thanks Mikey

Thanks Rog 

On Friday night I photographed Robert Plant and The Sensational Space Shifters at Colston Hall in Bristol:

Opening the show was Seth Lakeman:

I last saw Robert Plant live on the Page & Plant Walking Into Clarksdale tour at Wembley Arena in November 1998, I never thought then I'd end up photographing him in concert one day.

Billed as Robert Plant and The Sensational Space Shifters his band consists of :

Justin Adams - Guitar
John Baggott - Keyboards
Billy Fuller - Bass
Clive Deamer - Drums
Liam "Skin" Tyson - Guitars

Seth Lakeman also played on select songs:
