But not this tour. Having seen the 'stars align' at the RAH, and having watched effervescent contributions like that above, one can't help but notice a significant difference.. a re-energising of our leader. A return to top form. A definite joie de vivre.
Got me wondering why... any ideas?
A final farewell, perhaps? One hopes not, but could explain the new lease of life..
One to ponder!
Happy holidays to all,

Hipsters,
GazRox poses a very interesting question.
Our hero is certainly energised.
It would be easy to attribute it to the standard of the band - they are excellent - but frankly, he’s never had a bad line up and do the current troubadours serve his work better than his 2013 musicians ?
Could we attribute it to the set list ? Mais .....comme nous savons pas
beaucoup de changements!
C’est peut-etre sa vie privee ? Certainly our hero has, like the rest of us, had his ups and downs and he is a self confessed melancholic but he is much loved and W2 certainly hopes he is a happy bunny!
Could this be the last time but we don’t know ? Mais no, the Geordie work ethic reigns supreme and while he has wind in his sails his ship will cruise along.
So, what is it ?
Well W2 has the full explanation - it’s the new suit ! Since he ditched the Humperdinck rig and swathed himself in A&S, he’s regained his sartorial mojo and is back en plein for me as the Cary Grant of rock. Never underestimate the importance of a good suit !
Salutations,
Windswept.
