I visited the Chichester website on the Tour page and was startled to see that the upcoming Hollies show was described as follows .... The Led Zeppelin of the folk world The Hollies – in a dazzling show of rock and roll history...Led Zeppelin, Folk, am I missing something... ? |

Yeah, brilliantly LOUSY. Zeppelin was a VERY overrated band, specializing in regurgitated blues riffs, ripping off anybody and everybody they could and not giving them writing credit. Did you know they took part of a Spirit song and lifted it for "Stairway to Heaven"? They made millions off that song, and Spirit didn't get credit. Spirit should have sued. Ditto The Small Faces, who first came up with the riff Zep used for "Whole Lotta Love". And that's only the beginning. |

Hi Shelley,
I'll paste the words below, but as a thought, I can see it fine- wondered what screen resolution you are using (right click on your desktop wallpaper, select Properties, then click the Settings tab).
In the screen resolution section, I have mine set to 1024x768 and it comes up fine...
Anyhow, hear are the wordy bits as reproduced from Rob's report (hopefully not infringing his copyright!!!) :
This was a fabulous setting for a concert. Set in the very heart of the cathedral with the beautiful stained glass windows towering above the stage.
The nave was full and as so many wanted tickets, the organisers had to set televisions down each side of nave so that more people could see the show.
Because of the many pillars, that was the only way to see.
The view from the stage was most unusual for the band - not usually as they see things.
There were even seats on the balcony bridge across the nave.
Set list
First Half
I'm Alive
Jennifer Eccles
Just One Look
On A Carousel
Emotions
Stay
Here I Go Again
Sandy
The Baby
Hope
We're Through
So Damn Beautiful
Second Half
The Day That Curly Billy Shot Down Crazy Sam McGee
I Can't Let Go
Yes I Will
Sorry Suzanne
Bus Stop
Prove Me Wrong
Here I Go Again (Acoustic)
Very Last Day (Acoustic)
Look Through Any Window
Stop Stop Stop
Carrie Anne
Long Cool Woman
Tiger Feet
The Air That I Breathe
He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother
Let Love Pass
Cheers,
Chirpy |

Hi Chirpy,
Thanks for pasting the review for me.
My screen resolution is 800 x 600, thanks for the instructions by the way.
I have never had a problem seeing things on sites before, first time for everything I suppose.
I just tried to set it to the same as your settings, but the screen went a bit weird, don't know if I should mess about too much, I'm not really a technical person . |

Hi Rob,
Great to see Very Last Day get played, does Peter just sing and play solo like on Here I go again?
Great photos, what a beautiful setting for a show.
All the best,
Anthony |

Very Last Day is done acoustic by Ray, Peter and Tony and sounds great. |
