    What a fabulous evening!!! Went to see you at Eastbourne Congress with my son who is also a big fan of yours and we had a brilliant time. You haven’t lost your touch and the music was fantastic. Anyone reading this must try and get to see you on this tour – it would be a crime not to!! Big thank you for a wonderful evening and congrats on your 30th Anniversay. xx

    Have a delightful birthday, Mark! For fun I post your horoscope for your birthday:

    Your head should be quite clear today, Libra, and your witty comments will be met with appreciation and laughter. Your smile will delight everyone you encounter. Don’t be afraid to let your feelings out to those who need to hear them. Focus your energy on the ones you love. Your heart is warm and generous, so share it with other people today.

    So I don’t put a lot of stock into horoscopes but it’s kinda cool when it resonates like this. Look forward to giving you a birthday hug when you return to North America in 2011!

I am confident they will :-) Hope Mike, Pete, Nathan & Shaun r all gud and help give u a birthday 2 remember (such a great group of lovely guys, i have no doubts whatsoever). Have an amazing birthday Mark, u really deserve it & if u get a fraction of the joy & elation that u gave me and god knows how many other fans u stopped & gave the time 2 make their day to, then u will have an amazing birthday. Lots of love Sam x x x

    Sorry about putting a Birthday message here Mark, and apologies esp to those who enjoyed the Eastbourne gig last night and would much rather read about that, I’m sure.
    BUT we must take our chances when they arrive or forever have regrets!
    So…may I be among the many wishing you happiness on this lovely sunny October morning. Enjoy YOUR day!
    My best wishes to the guys.

    Much love…always. xx

    Have a good one Mark. Wife has banned me from anymore gigs this year as we saw you in Times Square, Henley Rewind, Oxford, Bristol and Pompey making it 31 gigs since 1980. All the best to the boys.

    My wife and I really enjoyed last night very much. FANTASTIC!
    We were in the upper balcony on the bands left hand side.

    I thought Mark’s vocals were drowned out a little by the band.

    Sorry I kept shouting out play “Children Say”

    Do you always play the same set on this tour?

    Happy Birthday to Mark!

    My own son is a budding musician if you have a spare 5 minutes perhaps you can take a peep at this,

    Absolutely Brilliant Concert. Enjoyed Every minute (although wasn’t long enough) You’ve still got that magic touch and enthusiasm. Shame you didn’t make it to Brighton this year but it was well worth the drive over for us. Look forward to seeing you again soon.

    Level 42 went to an even higher level in Eastbourne – who’d have that though that The Congress could have rocked the way it did on Tuesday? Great crowd , superb sound & light, and the band were on fire. Loved Dream Crazy and Kansas City Milkman as well as the hits – and 43 was just sheer brilliance. Great job guys – one of the best!
