I'M LATE WITH MY REPORT AS WE STAYED A COUPLE OF DAYS IN YORKSHIRE ENJOYING THE BEAUTIFULL YORKSHIRE DALES.
ON THURSDAY PETER DROVE US UP TO BINGLEY IN TORRENTIAL RAIN AND HAUL MOST OF THE WAY. BUT WE ARRIVED SAFTLY AT OUR B AND B AT 2PM AND THE SUN CAME OUT ON A GLORIOUS YORKSHIRE AFTERNOON. AFTER WE HAD EATEN WE DECIDED TO GO AND FIND THE VENUE AND CHECK OUT THE PARKING FOR LATER. EVENTUALY WE FOUND THE ART CENTRE AND IT WAS IN A LOVELY SETTING WITH LAWNS AND TREES AND BENCHES.WE SAT IN THE SUN FOR A WHILE AND THEN BLACK CLOUDS CAME OVER AND IT STARTED TO RAIN. THERE WAS SHELTER UNDER AN OLD OAK TIMBERED ROOF WITH ANCIENT WOODEN STOCKS BY IT. WE WERE JOKING ABOUT TAKING A PHOTO IN THEM WHEN SUDENLYPETER SAID, I'M SURE THATS WENDY OVERTHERE. WE WERE REALLY NEAR AND WE CALLED HELLO TO HER. SHE HAD MISSY IN HER ARMS AND WAS HEADING FOR THE DOOR. IT STATED TO POUR SO WE WENT TO THE DOOR AND SHE SAID HELLO GUYS , I'VE GOT GARETH IN THE CAR AND HIS STUFFS GOING TO GET WET. THEN LOTS OF PARENTS AND CHILDREN ARRIVED AND WENT IN AND AS IT WAS HAMMERING DOWN, WE FOLLOWED AND WENT IN. .NEXT THING, IN CAME GARETH :DHE WAS TOTALY SUPRISED TO SEE US STANDING THERE AND GREETED ME WITH AHUG AND SHOOK PETERS HAND . PETER ASKED ABOUT HIS SONGS FOR LATER AND GARETH SAID HE HAD NEW ONES AND IT SHOULD BE FUN :DIT HAD BEEN A BIT CHAOTIC WITH EVERYONE PILLING IN, BUT THEN THEY ALL DISAPEARED INTO THE BACK AND WE WERE LEFT ON OUR OWN SHUT IN EVENTUALLY A YOUNG WOMAN LET US OUT . IT WAS A WONDERFULL FEW MINETES THAT WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE, AND ALL BECAUSE OF THE REIN.
BACK AGAIN LATER FOR THE SHOW AND WE MET A LADY AND HER PARTNER FROM CAMBRIDGE WHO WE HAVE MET BEFOR. WE FOUND JUNE IN THE FOYEE WITH HER SISTER, AND LOTS MORE FANS WHO WE KNEW.THE LITTLE THEATRE WAS WONDERFULL. THE SEATS WERE STAGGERED STEEPLY SO NO HEADS IN THE WAY AND OUR SEATS, MIDDLE SECONGD ROW WERE LEVEL WITH THE STAGE.
THE FIRST ACT WERE TWO MEN WITH GUITARS, VERY GOOD .THEY KEPT TEASING ABOUT US JUST WANTING TO GET ON WITH IT TO GET TO GARETH' SET. THEN THERE WAS PERFORMANCES FROM GARETH'S ACADAMY.THEY WERE AMAZEING. ONE GROUP DID DANCE ANOTHER SANG AND THEM JASSICA AND ANOTHER GIRL SANG BEAUTIFULLY A DUET. NO WONDER GARETH IS SO PROUD OF HIS PUPILS. AMAZEING PERFORMANCES FROM THEM ALL. WENDY CAME ON AND PRAISED THEM ALL AND THERE TUTORS . SHE OBVIOUSLY TAKES A GREAT INTEREST AND IS VERY INVOLVED.
THEN THE MAN HIMSELF. WHAT A RECEPTION HE GOTAND HOW HE LOVED PLAYING TO HIS YORKSHIRE CROWD. HE SANG 12,14 SONGS. HIS OLD FAVORITS PLUS 3 WONDERFULL NEW SONGS THAT PULL AT YOUR HEARTSTRINGS . YOU COULD HEAR A PIN DROP AS GARETH SANG THEM , IT WAS THE ONLY TIME DIRING THE EVENING . I THINK EVERYONE WAS SPELLBOUND, I KNOW I WAS THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFULL AND HEARTFELT.
GARETH CALLED WENDY ON THE STAGE FOR AOMS AND GAVE HER A HUG AND KISS.
WE WERE ALL ON OUR FEET AS GARETH ROCKED AND HE HELD HANDS AS HE SANG AND HE GRASPED MINE AS HE CAME BYWHICH WAS LOVELY. HE HAD PEOPLE SINGING SITS AND HE FETCHED A GIRL ON THE STAGE TO SING WITH HIM. LUCKY GIRL. HE WAS JUST WONDERFULL THE SUPORT AND LOVE FOR HIM WAS OVERWHELMING AND HE WAS JUST LOVEING EVERYMINETE. I DIDN'T WANT IT TO EVER END. GARETH'S VOICE HIS MOVES HIS PERSONALITY JUST HOLDS YOU IN HIS SPELL.
WHAT A FABULOUSE NIGHT.
THERE WAS A MEET AND GREET AND THE FOYEE WAS PACKED. GARETH SIGNED A POSTER FOR ME WHICH YOU COULD BUY FOR HIS CHARITY. I TOLD HIM I COULDN'T WAIT TO HAVE HIS ALBUM AFTER HEARING HIS BRILLIANT NEW SOMGS.. I HAD A LOVELY HUG AND A PIC AND AFTERWARDS SAW WENDY AGAIN AND HAD QUITE A CHAT WITH HER.
BRILLIANT NIGHT , ONE OF THE BEST.IF GARETH MAKES AN ALBUM, O BOY ARE WE IN FOR A TREAT
HAVE CRACKED PHOTOBUCKET AT LAST, AND IT WAS SO EASY IN THE END AFTERALL!
