...The Barbican is the perfect venue for a show like tonight, excellent sound quality from where I was sitting and fantastic views from just about wherever you are in the hall. The setting also made it a memorable event, the only downside being the strict curfew which resulted in a slightly shorter set than anticipated. As such the sole encore was the evergreen Lady Fantasy, a perfect way to finish, a classic from the heyday of the band and always a fitting memorial to the band as it started out. With final thanks to the crowd from Andy, the whole band came to the front of the stage to soak up the applause before departing to a storm of calls for another encore which sadly did not happen. A cliché but they could have played all night; absolutely marvellous.
