What a stunning evening !!!!!

I couldn't be described as an ardent Bob fan but I was just blown away (as no doubt a few cobwebs and ghosts were).

Chi cathedral is a stunning building and great venue for events and clasical concerts.

Bob & the band took it over from the start and gave a stunning performance as well as Bob giving a great insight into a number of his songs.

Come back soon guys or how about an open air concert in Petworth park next year?

Thanks for a superb experience.
