What a weird show.

The gig was quite beautiful. We sound checked in this big theatre over looking the sea, then after dinner we came back and the whole place had changed. The roof had come off and the back windows had disappeared, not by accident however, we realized the whole place can open up to the sea.

So we settled in and looked forward to a cool intimate show on the smallest stage so far, almost the same size as our rehearsal room back in Box.

The front row fans were really great and really up for it, the problem was the rest of the room. They just were not really into it .. so it made for quite an odd gig. Also PG has just got a cold .. so he really needs to watch himself as WOMAD is at the end of the week and we need to be fighting fit for that.

It was great to have Mel back, we missed her so much. Dan Lavi had to get up on stage tonight and help her during 'Eyes' as her sound stopped working - he got it fixed just in time for her last phrase.

So now we pack-up over looking the moonlit sea...so different from the last week of nothing but rain...but as they said this-morning, it never rains in Monaco.
