Fan Comments
Mike was late on due to a problem with the barriers and the extra support band. This meant it was a slightly shorter set than he appears to have played so far.
The set was fantastic and his voice was in fine form, and the band were cooking. Of course it was too short, but we loved it. The only down side was the poor turn out.
There was a small MP following, but loud and in form as you would expect.
