   Guys, what an amazing night! I grew up alongside these tunes as a kid and when i saw you were touring i had to get a ticket for my dad and me as a big thanks to him for his great taste in music. You blew us both away tonight with this performance and i feel i should give you all a big thanks for continuing to tour and giving me the opportunity to finally come see you.

   P.S. Hope you weren’t kidding about 2012 Mark, i’m getting myself a “dancing” seat next time! :P

   Thanks for a great night. Haven’t seen you since Crystal Palace ’91. My lady wife and I were in the third row from the front at the middle and enjoyed every minute of it.

   Love the “hamster bottle”.

    What a great night again, absolutley brilliant. Saw you guys at Tamworth this summer and my first gig was in 1983 Birmingham Odeon. Seen you so many places since then and you are still top musicians and entertainers. Loved the drumming section last night. Keep on doing it Mark, Mike Natan, Pete. Thanks guys for another great night.

    What can I say, Brilliant!! Now those that have never seen you before no where Thunder Thumbs is coming from, My eldest’s first concert and he was blown away just as I was 30 years ago, No ‘Out of Sight, Out of Mind’ but lets hope it is many many more years before you are as a performing band, such quality is so rare..Best for the rest of the tour.

    What can I say?… the gig was just overwhelming. Quality that will stay in my mind for a long time. I just sat in awe as my ears were filled with sounds that took me back to my youth and was amazed by the unblemished talents of the guys who were making them. Still got it in bucketloads…you guys rock!!
    Thank you so much for a cracking night.

    what an unbelieveable night words cannot express how i felt…. when you sang it’s over i sat back in my chair and cried because i always said from when i was a little girl that when i died i wanted that song played at my funeral
    i have loved you mark king since i was 7 years old i used to watch top of the pops and whenever you’s were on there i would run up to our tele and kiss you on the screen
    i was sitting on the balcony and i couldn’t see you properly i wanted to sit at the front so i could shake your hand maybe next time when you come back to birmingham i brought along my 2 eldest sons and even they thought you were great and want to come back with me in 2012 keep up the good work lads sending you all loads of love wendy xxx

    Absolutely fantastic, first saw you 28 years ago when my mate dragged me along as she had nobody else to go with – well been a big fan and followed you ever since. Lost count of the number of concerts I’ve been each one being brilliant – looking forward to the next one n 2012! x

    I was dragged along to this, not expecting a great deal (didn’t really know who L42 were tbh). What a brilliant show, loved every minute and was surprised how many songs I recognised.

    Can’t belive the energy you all put in! I thought the stand in drummer was incredible too. Rushed out to get the greatest hits the next day, loving it :)
