We’re in a very busy phase of the tour. Stuttgart on Sunday, Paris last night, Amsterdam tonight. Then the British tour starts in Newcastle-Gateshead on Thursday. The show in Paris got off to a late start last night because one of the trucks carrying our equipment crashed en route from Stuttgart. Thankfully the driver wasn’t hurt but, as a result, nothing arrived at the Grand Rex theatre until 5 pm and the staging was still being constructed while the audience were waiting outside! Sorry for the delay if you were waiting on the Boulevard. The show turned out really well anyway. Neil x
