Ive knocked up a bit of art if you want it or you can do your own

Ok heres Simons waffle for those that are interested,Ive included what Van was playing in each song in case anyone wants to know, its correct to the best of my memory but all there feel free to correct.



So Perth cold grey and miserable, after 8 hours with Holly driving I need some colour He better be good tonight. Once again Nosey had chosen the smallest least accesible pub for the Vanoraks to meet pre gig, there was a a smattering of english ,scots swiss and even Australian(Yes he realised it was Perth Scotland not WA).
8.03PM band hits the stage like refugees from reservoir dogs,kick into Celtic swing, Dream follows,its going Ok nothing incredible,He comes sits at the keyboard for Monte Carlo,moves before the end to centre stage before going into retreat both good versions nice to hear The new album being well treated a quick baby starts to get us moving before slowing down witha great pagan, then Philosophers like the alternate version on BOT remastered, and then tupelo medley (van includes a few little word changes having a pop at someone,usually in game but we aint getting that tonight). so we get moondance and then OOOHHHH lovers and mystic ,nice thanks,we are nearing the end the standard brown eyed, followed by have I on keys and whenever god ,big hand for the band Gloria,Im outta here.

Overall not my fav ending songs but it was a good concert nowhere near as good as cheltenham but still worth the 8 hour drive,Thanks Holly.
