Talking Coventry England

Hi All. Even with Jon suffering from hayfever they did a gret set.Nickelback were ace to.if you play in a band you realise just how hard it is to keep a small crowd interested in not just how good you are but how cool you are and how well you play,let alone 35000 to 45000 people.As muscians you also realise how much practise , talent, memory, and natural ability it takes to be Bon Jovi Nickelback, Def leppard, Led zepp,Thin lizzy etc... .Lets face it most of us will never get there. But to stand shoulder to shoulder with fans,musicians, LADIES, as a fans of these awsome bands will always be a family. Something kids of ours will never experiance with Oasis etc,,,...
So give thanks that we saw the 70,s 80,s 90,s with legends a plenty in rock. Anynew talent out there has a lot to prove, but good luck.
KEEP THE FAITH DIE HARDS< YEARS OF JOY WILL NEVER CEASE. :Respect to all musicans ,fans ,the human race "Love the one your with"

Great pics Cov was a weird show, It started off below par, Jon threw a tantrum over the intro to BTBMB but you know what it ended up as one of the best shows of the tour. Not just for the amazing encore, but the way Jon turned it around that night. When he was talking to the crowd about him not feeling well, it felt like he was talking to you, really genuine. So glad i decided to go to this one at the last minute.

..I agree Carli. Jon was really genuine that night...it was an incredible show...not for the set list or performance...But some how there was a united feel about it, between fans and band.

We will still see great performers coming through...Yes it does take more than good songs...Serious amounts of charisma....I thought Chad was a great frontman!...and then their was Ryan who was physically blushing when some girls on the front row made some banners for him and looking as if he should be at work in a suit!...But when he was playing guitar he was awesome, just like a switch had been flicked!...animal!

Great pix handyman!...you must have been next to me!
