Every now and then I find myself at one of those gigs that define music in a new way. I long thought that Yes at Sweden Rock was as good as it was ever gonna get at that festival, only to be blown away to Cactus in 2006. I never thought anything would ever surpass Bro. Bill by Cactus. Yesterday Stan Webb+s Chicken Shack redefined it all. During their short set they delivered everything I want in music; emotion, musicianship,
love, humour and Go! I actually stood with my eyes closed during most of the gig as the music in itself painted such lovely pictures in my head. I think Stan didnŽt think much of the gig at first, but when he saw that the small crowd was really into it he loosened up a bit and at the end he seemed to have enjoyed it all very much. As did we.

Sweetest Little Thing is probably the best ever song performed at this festival (IŽve been to most of Žem since 1995), there was so much emotion in that one it almost brought me to tears.

The sound turned out excellent, apart from a few talkers there is nothing to complain about. So grab your favourite cognac or whiskey, sit down with headphones and picture yourself on a field below a small hill in a cloudy yet nice afternoon on the south of Sweden. To your right you have some trees, almost like a small forest. To your left is the rest of the festival. In front of you - Chicken Shack.

I feel privileged and blessed to have witnessed this.
