Bruce, the reviewer missed the point of the evening entirely. It was a celebration of Nic's award, his musical journey, his enduring legacy & the fact that he is out there, performing again for the first time since 1982! How do you best celebrate...you surround yourself with Family & Dearest Friends, many of whom just happen to be Musicians. 'The Halliard', with whom Nic began his career, was just one part of the genius that was & still is, Nic Jones. It wasn't a concert that lent itself to conventional review. It was a unique, intimate & very affectionate tribute to a singer/guitarist who has triumphed over almost insurmountable odds. Did we have a good time?....YES INDEED! A night to savour; a night to remember for a lifetime.
            With Love,
                           Nigel (Ann says Hi from NC)
