Magnum ROCKS

Well, as promised, I’ve pulled the best pictures from the concert:

This was the stage before the concert – and I make no apologies – these photos were taken with my phone, and not my camera…

This was Bob in full voice (think this was When We Were Younger)

This was when Tobias Sammet joined the band for Lost on the Road to Eternity:

The vocal duel – don’t mind admitting this is my current computer background!:

Then this was towards the end of the song:

Then this was from Crazy Old Mothers:

Then it was onto the first single released from the new album – Without Love:

I can recall that one of the backing singers was Rebecca Downes…

Then it was onto the home straight with a real foot stomper – Show Me Your Hands:

After that, my damned phone battery died, and I couldn’t take any more photos!

Despite that, I spent the entire concert on my feet, and it was well worth it.  I felt like I could walk on air, and decided that should Magnum tour again, I would definitely go and see them.

Ah well, time to call this quits – I’m due in the playpen tomorrow…

What a night though it’s one of seven,

What a night for the dancing dead,

What a night to be called to heaven,

What a picture to fill your head

To fill your head

At the End Of The Road To Eternity

What a blast. Magnum were amazing.

There wasn't much chat (in fact, there was hardly any) but the songs flowed seamlessly from "older" songs such as 'Crazy Old Mothers' to the first single released from the new album - the really catchy 'Without Love'.

Would I go again? Hell yes. I'd go without hesitation. When we left, I had very little voice, but it was worth every strained muscle and vocal cord.

I'll put the photos on a later post from my computer, as my dratted phone won't upload the images from the SD card.

Back later.

You know we're lost on the road to eternity
Well there's no mercy no magical prayer

Nearly at the end of The Road To Eternity.

Well, the day has arrived, and I am sitting in The Brasshouse with a Rumbullion single waiting for the gig.

And if the previous gig reports are anything to go by.... And yes, I *am* looking forward to this. It's been a long wait - but it's been worth it.

Time to drink up - his lordship wants to move.

Back tomorrow with a report.
