1 hr 45m.30s
a sparsely attended gig , barely 100 people showed up, possibly due to the fact that Ben decided to play here with only three weeks notice , as he loved the piano and venue when he was here 18 years ago when he played with Chris Jagger !
audio mix was excellent and the audience was exceptionally quiet, Ben commented that they were the best to on the tour behaviour wise. Thankfully for a change , no one was propping up the bar talking ��
