We have returned home from a short break in Malvern. Two unexpected highlights of the trip were a visit to the majestic Worcester Cathedral and a play called "Fences" starring Lenny Henry-he really is a very good actor. Of course this holiday was built around a concert on Thursday! When we went into the crowded foyer of the theatre we were surprised to see Peter leaving! Everything I wanted to say should I ever meet one of the Hollies disappeared from my mind and I didn't say anything sensible-I'm sorry Peter!
Our seats were on the first row of the raised section so we had an unrestricted view of the stage in line with Tony who still looks far too young to have been touring for 50 years!
Peter was wearing trainers instead of his usual black shoes and at times he appeared to be limping. There was no problem with his voice or his sense of humour and all the band seemed to be happy to be sharing the evening with us-even Ian, who, as Tony told us, had arrived back from Australia the day before.
I didn't make any notes but I think the only change from the set list of the UK tour last year was that "Too young to be married" replaced "Emotions".
When the 2nd part began I'm sure Tony was playing Peter's guitar-the one that Peter plays on his recording of Psalm 23 and also on the DVD of the Time Machine tour with Cliff.
All too soon Bobby was at the front of the stage saying "Good night, God bless" and the "best band in the world" left the stage.
ps I now have six months to pratice what I'm going to say if I meet any of the Hollies on the Autumn tour!
