    He played Stadium of Light about 3 years ago.

    In June.


    As the gig started, the fog rolled in from Roker and we literally couldn't see the stage.

    Sunderland summers eh?


    Soon cleared and he played a 4 hour set. Absolutely sensational. During 10th Avenue Freeze Out he stopped and paid tribute to Clarence Clemons.

    The Missus knew I'd go.


    She just whispered to me "Ernie, you're a big soft ****er, so you are. Get a grip. Have a tissue."



    It's that type of empathy and understanding that's been sustaining me for most of me life.

    EIGHT DAYS A WEEK.

    Being a Beatle fan from the age of 13 I have consumed quite a lot of their music and read a lot about them, even buying the Beatle Monthly mag at that time, I immersed myself in Beatledom. John was my fave, I listened to their records over and over until I knew the lyrics off by heart and when the films came out I queued outside the pictures to see both films A Hard Days Night and Help, so many times it was like their records I knew the script off by heart. Most of my mates were Stones fans as a rebellion against the suited ones, I have my own versions of The Beatles films now and most of their music, but even for me some of their stuff was not to my liking, The White Album for one. But I thought I had consumed most of what I wanted, until now, and, until, belatedly, I have just watch my Father’s Day prezzy off my daughter, the DVD Eight Days A Week.

    It covers most of the time from The Cavern to Shea Stadium, and what struck me was the amount of live performance material they showed. I have never actually heard The Beatles live, except for the Royal Command Performance, never saw them live so it was records and film. And what was amazing, considering what **** equipment they had, was the quality of their performances they sounded superb, albeit not much of it made the DVD. But as the craziness entombed them it was even impossible for them to hear each other but the live stuff on this DVD is still amazing. The only thing that I think is missing is the acknowledgement of George’s song contributions, although I couldn’t like his Indian influence. Overall, I thank my daughter for the prezzy and although I could not want any more Beatle stuff, even though I have just been to Liverpool, yet again, to visit the Beatle shrines, this DVD is a wonderful addition to my collection. Directed and Produced by Ron Howard, of Happy Day’s fame I think, he has done a grand job.

    Seen Sky Arts a few times, the photographic thing appeals to me, but not seen this Black Album programme you mention, I will have to check if it's on again.
