CONCERT AT ABERDARE SOUTH WALES
Alan did a fantastic show at the Coliseum Theatre Aberdare on Saturday13 June. I was very disapointed at the poor turn-out probably only just over a hundred.

However, Alan was in splendid form as was Zoot Money and the rest of the band. I particuraly enjoyed Alans anecdotes about Randy Newmans Dad and Van Morrison.

The highlight for me has to be the O' Lucky Man Medley which closed the first half.

I purchased a cd at the intermission, Alan promised to sign cd's at the end of the show but unfortunately my taxi was wating for me outside.

Hope to have better luck at the gig in Saint Davids Hall, Cardiff in October, just read about this show on the forum and am absolutely delighted that Alan is returning to Wales. Hopefully there will be better turn out.

Good to hear you managed to get to the Coliseum Theatre Bazza - Alan does a great show doesn't he? but disappointing to
hear that it was a very poor turn out.

I have been to two of his shows this year. At Kings Lynn about 200 hundred people came (less than half full) and at Norwich
it was almost full but then it is a small theatre of about 350 seats. I think there are two reasons for small audiences -
other than Maximum Rhythm 'N Blues with the Manfreds last year Alan has been busy writing for some time and so not done
many shows - I have lost count of the times I have been asked if he has retired. The second, and in my opinion the main
reason, is that there doesn't seem to be much advertising locally for these shows. I didn't see anything in Norwich at all
so unless you got the current programme brochure from the theatre you wouldn't know Alan was doing a show there.
I am sure many more people would have loved to see him if only they had known about the concerts.
