Totally agree about the Chipolatas gig....dangerously overcrowded, with no attempt made to keep exits clear, seemed to be 'pack in as many as we can' not the way to do it! Those on the lower levels of the tiered seats at the back were in many cases prevented from seeing the show by inconsiderate people standing in front of them. The show itself was brilliant, and outside at the end, following the wonderful procession and dance by Great Western with flaming torches, a firework was set off containing the ashes of my old friend and working mate the late , very lamented , Ritchie Taylor....brillaint....even if I did end up with bits in my hair...goodbye old pal...
