Lovely to get to see the great Mr Hayes. His playing is wonderful, humourful and delicate. He was fun to listen too and I enjoyed his gentle jokes and knowledge. The band with him are very skilled. I went to see the man of course but would perhaps liked to have a wee bit more of the individual diverse sounds of Common Ground. It is years since I was last at BoTW and I like it. What wasn't great was the seating. We were at rear and basically had to contend with a constant flow of people in and out of the gig for bar and toilet all night, plus continuous dropping or kicking over of beer glasses - not good during quiet or moving pieces. I think a bit more calm would have made the experience better. I sensed the crowd were not as fully attentive as they should have been. Why not just wait for a pint until the interval? Please close the bar when the musicians are playing - out of respect to artist and paying audience. Good idea? Seems sense to me. The air conditioning was very draughty and made the place on a mild night almost chilly. Perhaps calm it down a notch in future - it wasn't a rave and not that much heat was being generated! I am not being a moaner - I went for music not chilled beer. Please take note mebbe? Mike D.
