I thought it was great! As I said, we had rubbish seats (the YouTube clip sounds so strong and powerful) which was a bit of a shame (Hannah has a hearing difficulty so didn't enjoy it that much :(), but overall it was a great night. I wasn't that impressed with his theremin playing - it was just 2 notes wasn't it?

How's your cello playing coming along? :) Have you found time for it?

i think his theramin works better when he's doing his usual stand up act. when we saw him in Edinburgh he used it a lot in his little songs and it really worked. not so much so with an orchestra. I really enjoyed the cowbells tho, that was well funny!

the cello? hmmm, it sits gathering dust :( thing is i dont have room for it upstairs atm, got to have a major revamp of the bedroom to make space for it up here, so it sits in the living room....where the rest of the family sit.....watching telly.
once they've all left home, or i get this room done so i can practice up here( i'm guessing this will come first) i can let rip, but until then it'll have to wait.its heartbreaking really cos Rob spent a fortune on it.
