20 Jun 11 - 09:26 AM (#3173274) Subject: RE: Wine women and song From: Bonzo3legs Excellent singing but they talked and messed about far too much, probably more than 50% of the 2 hours they were on stage. Best country song title from Matraca Berg - "Your husband is cheating on us"!! |

20 Jun 11 - 11:07 AM (#3173319) Subject: RE: Wine women and song From: GUEST,davemc I saw them earlier in the tour (and also a couple of years ago). The banter is an integral part of the show and I really liked the informality and wit. Varied material, of high standard, well-performed; great personalities. I believe 2 of the 3 are struggling with colds at the moment so you may have got a little more chat than usual... |

23 Jun 11 - 11:03 AM (#3175207) Subject: RE: Wine women and song From: GUEST,Bramley Saw them in Glasgow last night. The venue was very wrong for them and they were unable to create an intimate atmosphere. They talked too much, played too many new songs and spent too much time trying to sell their CDs, DVDs and their forthcoming tours. |

23 Jun 11 - 04:51 PM (#3175370) Subject: RE: Wine women and song From: Bonzo3legs Second half - 59minutes but only 44 minutes music - not good enough for £20 tickets. |
