    hi daisy

    yeah, it was a great show.
    was front & centre - right between Vicki & Susanna's mics so got some good photos & a special momento as well :D

    nice that they mentioned The Jades as well.

    Twenty-two years on, and well worth the wait. They were excellent. They gave the people what they wanted, and if the people wanted to see Susanna Hoffs in a non-existant black babydoll dress, they got that too.

    They played all the hits, all the classic album tracks, they interacted with the audience, they rocked the house, they looked great, they were very tight and it cost less than half the price of most gigs these days, so I can't complain. EUR31.50, really is getting more Bang(le) for your Buck.

    I got a snare drum head signed by the three of them, each with with a few doodles. Debbi did a peace logo, Vicki did a few hearts, and Susanna did what looks like a cloud with wings (?!?!). I'll get it framed eventually.
