Anastacia @ Marley.... what the heck was that like?

whiskeyman

Just wondering.... not a fan or anything (I sware!).
I live in Dundrum, and could hear it outside.
I also heard (from a very reliable source working at the gig) that they'd only sold around 5,000 tickets.
Was there many there for Tony Christie?
What was the atmophere like?

I'm sure there was lots of boyfriends / husbands dragged to this one that can tell all.....

That was one concert i would never go to. Even if you flew me there by helicopter and free food and drink for the night i would rather have a fight with a pitbull

I was working at it, was about 7000 people there I'd say (although I'd imagine a lot of them were on free tickets). Was an incredibly well behaved crowd, we pretty much had no trouble at all (certainly nothing compared to the Oasis crowd the previous night). Tony Christie was awful though, I really really just wanted a pair of ear muffs or a shotgun! Anastacia was a very good entertainer and has a good singing voice, but I don't think she has good songs which is letting her down a bit. She really got the crowd going though, seemed like quite a nice person too

Tony Bennet would never associate himself with that grade of ****e music.The Tony you speak of is Christie.****emonger

Anastacia has some good songs I think, Left Outside Alone is beautiful, I wouldn't go to see her in concert but I think she's okay.
