 Re: Nanci in Gateshead, UK - February 8, 2010
And I'll be there!  Front row as well. This will set a new record for me for the longest ever round trip to and from a gig from where I live in Newport, which for me currently stands at around 345 miles for BBC Radio 2 Live In Blackpool, my wife got a text saying we won tickets the night before the event . . . Apologies for vanishing from the board for a while - just loads going on in my life right now!

 Re: Nanci in Gateshead, UK - February 8, 2010
The "Nanci Griffith" page on Facebook has the following comments from fans regarding Nanci's performance at Gateshead on February 8: Quote: Thanks for a great show as always at The Sage, Gateshead, tonight, Nanci..Several highlights, but 'Across The Great Divide' was very moving, for similar reasons to your own, in the last fortnight... Haste ye back! Safe travels and love to TX. xoxo Quote: Excellent concert at the Sage last night, thank you for a fabulous evening! Quote: Yes, it was a great night at The Sage. Come back soon! Quote: Great show at The Sage Gateshead last night. Hope you'll come back soon. Congratulations on the Lifetime Achievement Award, which is much deserved. Quote: I saw Nanci in concert, on Monday at The Sage, Gateshead, with Thomm Jutz and Pat McInerney. The best concert I've been to, and I've been to a few, so far. The musical balance was spot on and her voice was a delight.

 Re: Nanci in Gateshead, UK - February 8, 2010
It was a great show.
I'll post a longer review later, but suffice to say Nanci looked very happy and relaxed, full of smiles.
The set-list was a strong one and The Sage acoustics really brought the best out of the sound.
Edwina Hayes did a good half hour before Nanci came on and then joined her on stage for the last three songs. Their voices harmonised very nicely.
It's the first time I've seen Nanci; hopefully she'll be back before too long.

 Re: Nanci in Gateshead, UK - February 8, 2010
Nanci was in good form. It was wierd seeing her without James, but it didn't seem to hold her back at all. The set was excellent, very varied, but I did miss 'Gulf Coast Highway'  And it was great to hear her sing 'The Road To Aberdeen' again. She did it as an encore at a concert I saw on my 30th birthday ten years ago in Newcastle, just over the water from Gateshead. It gave it a nice symmetry.

That explains why I thought it was such a good comment that I would post it on the Fan Forums!
