Night out

Liam Baily supporting Plan B at Blackpool Friday 4th March 2011

Went to to see Plan B on Friday at the Empress Ballroom Blackpool.  The support was Liam Bailey of whom I am very proud to have heard of!  My 2 daughters hadn't heard of him so I filled them in!  It's not often you can do that to teenagers about music.  I had heard him on Radio 1 and googled him and listened to him on Spotify.  He has a beautiful soulful voice and I really enjoyed his performance.

Plan B was great, just as you see him on TV performing (the Brits).  I had to disappear half way through as my younger daughter felt faint (we were standing near the front) so I missed a bit of his set.  She was okay in the end after nearly passing out and throwing up (yuk).

Have to mention the Empress Ballroom, though, which is in the Winter Gardens, what a great space, beautiful ornate room, fantastic chandeliers ...... especially great for a modern day concert, what a dichotomy.

And we got home about 12.30am!  I managed to stay awake which was good as I was driving but I am normally in bed by 10pm most nights so it was  late night for me but a really good one.
