Jet at Born to Rock n Roll

Postby Tim » 11 Oct 2010, 09:35

Had a wonderful evening at Fairfield Halls Croydon on Sunday night at the Born to Rock n Roll tour. Marty Wilde (still a great singer), Eden Kane (looking very tanned!), Roxanne Wilde (very underrated) and last but not least Jet Harris. Great to see Jet on such good form. A standing ovation for Diamonds. The tour has only just started and goes into November - catch it if you can.

I'd like to echo Tim's comments, Marty Wilde and Eden Kane were in great voice and Jet's performance of both Diamonds and Theme For Something Really Important was spot on. Diamonds got the biggest response of the night and it was great to see him beaming when he came back on for the finale.

Can't wait. Only 3 and a half weeks until they're at Weston Super Mare.....

Does Eden Kane do his great "Boys Cry"? If not, why not? :-)

Alan, good. When I saw Eden depping for an ailing Joe Brown and John Leyton at the London Palladium a few years back, he didn't do that number. A real pity.

Very entertaining evening in Glasgow last night, with a small but enthusiastic audience. Special praise for the Wildcats who were superb throughout - would have liked at least another instrumental from them, though!

I have had excellent feedback from the show at the Sage, Gateshead last Tuesday - especially our Jet.
Sadly, the 1700 seat Hall One was only about half full but the crowd really had a ball.
Well done Jet & Co.

I can't believe these legendary guys (and gal) aren't playing to packed houses. Remember Marty's 50th anniversary concert at the Palladium when Jet played and Hank was a surprise guest? I wanted to see them at Weston super Mare but couldn't get a ticket so hopefully that gig will be full.
