    Extra show added for Monday 14th November. If anyone is interested in seeing Alison, tickets have sold extremely well, so I wouldn't hang about. The first two nights are nearly sold out and the third is going that way too.

    I have tickets for the Rickie Lee Jones concert at the RFH.

    Are there other AoS members going? Perhaps we could meet up for a drink during the interval?

    No Tailspin Sound was dreadful for the first few songs, hotter than hell in there tonight, so maybe that was why - but after that they really got going, much to the delight of a very appreciative audience. Lot's of fun in there and you would think they had never had a break. Mark was on top form I thought too. Bit of a cock up after the encore as they put the house lights on and people started to leave (including me) but just as I was leaving the hall I looked back and saw a roadie tuning Mark's guitar..... 'they ain't done yet I thought', so turned back and got encore number 2 Great night indeed - loved the new songs. They really looked like they were enjoying themselves too.

    The sound at Manchester was really good & they hit the spot right from the off. I wasn't so keen on the Mark Olson +1 support slot, but the main event was brilliant. The new songs worked really well - sounding a bit Byrdsy, I thought. But most importantly, they had that quality that The Jayhawks (& one or two precious few other bands) are able to whistle up seemingly at will - you feel like the songs are a part of your life right from the very first time you hear them.
