March 1, 20169 yr Author Support - "...Tunde Baiyewu, the voice of the Lighthouse Family, will take to the stage ahead of Will Young..." http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/whats-on/mu...h-tyne-10955763 Great support in my opinion. :cheer:
July 8, 20169 yr Author Brilliant night in the perfect setting. Will commented that the band thought it was the most beautiful location they had played in. Will was on top form and the large crowd were very appreciative. They love good live music up here in the north east. Lots of guys of all ages near where we stood singing along and enjoying every minute. Got talking to a woman on the metro on the way home. It was her first time seeing Will and she couldn't believe how good he was. She described his singing as flawless and loved his banter. The guy from the Lighthouse family was very good too. All in all one of my favourite outdoor gigs. :yahoo: :wub: Edited July 8, 20169 yr by truly talented

July 10, 20169 yr Yea this was certainly a show for the memory banks! :cheer: I'm late reporting in but it was an amazing setting. Ideal weather, the sound spot on, and a big crowd enjoying the evening, and it was lovely hearing Will commenting that he and the band thought it was the most beautiful place they'd played. Great to see the north east hosting such a good festival too.
