I'm with you dawals - thought it was a great gig, Vinnie Moore was on great form too, the songs off the new UFO album were terrific live, and of course the classics were rocking, some good fun up on that stage too, memory loss aside )))
was very happy with the set too, some great stuff in there and was nice to hear Venus.....
PatrickReborn - enjoyed your set, I was on the right side of the stage at the barrier and the only thing I could say about the sound was I thought the lead guitar was down a bit in the mix, thought you got a good reaction at the end too - which must have been cool with the amount of oldies there (alright I'm old too).......look forward to seeing you guys again  |

| Good to read that they are playing a mixture of old and new stuff. Looking forward to tonight. Do they play many off of Seven Deadly? |

Deadly gig - really enjoyed all the songs. Decent venue too with great sound.
Really glad I tagged along to this one. Think there was 3 songs from the new album. |

| Cheers for that. I would take any three but at a push it would be Mojo Town, Year Of The Gun and a rockin' Wonderland. I will just wait till tonight. I would guess Fight Night would be close. |

T'was deadly playing this. The sound on stage for me was great, I was able to hear all my lead stuff very clearly, which was good for me (although I believe I was a bit low in the mix out in the crowd but guess the support band's never have a perfect sound anyway). Was happy out the response too.
I thought UFO played class, Vinnie Moore is such a lethal player. Enjoyed every solo he did...Savage, savage stuff! Went for a wander around the backstage area after their set and met the lads briefly, all nice people especially Andy, Ray and the touring bass player, Rob.
Loved the set-list too although, I would have loved to of heard Shoot Shoot.
Great night in all...Good session afterwards too. |

| Just saw UFO again tonight in London. Great gig. Can never get enough of seeing these guys playing lights out, let it roll, only you can rock me, too hot to handle, love to love, rock bottom, doctor doctor, shoot shoot etc. Best sound by far I've ever experienced in the Kentish Town Forum too. |
