B. Wyman´s Rhythm Kings at Uden, Heerlen and Eindhoven 2014

Bill Wyman´s Rhythm Kings at Markant Uden 01st Nov 2014
For the first time in a few month we saw the band again. The venue seemed a bit big at first, but the crowd grew a lot before the concert started. The sound was okay, but we stood at the front so we had both (on stage sound system and front of house) sound systems, so we could not hear the singing properly. Among the crowd were several familiar faces, like Adele and Jan, Rolf and Silke and Gudrun. We chatted and although said "Hello" to the crew after a long time and have a little chat with Dave South (crew boss)! 
Bill stepped onto the stage and everyone knew that this will be a great night. He introduced the members of the band one by one and although told the crowd that Graham Broad could not make the tour and Henry Spinetti had only two days to rehearse 26 songs. He did a great job, but we although saw that Bev, Terry and Nick had to make the start and the ending of a song visible to Henry. We had a blast and got the setlist at the end. Thanks to Dave South!

Bill Wyman´s Rhythm Kings at Parkstad Limburg Heerlen 02nd Nov 2014
The second gig went even smoother than the first. The sound was alright and better than in Uden. Gudrun and I were in a different hall of this venue and rushed to the wright one at the last minute. The band was already on stage and the crowd got wild and danced and sang along throughout the concert.

Bill Wyman´s Rhythm Kings at the Musiekgebouw Eindhoven, 03rd Nov 2014
This was my second time at this venue. This time they only sold seats and my seat in the 4th row was actually very far away from the stage. Geraint surprised us: instead of telling his funny stories he did an impromptu version of Cilla Black's "Anyone who had a heart" which left Bill and the others speechless. The show was not sold out, but the band did their best to entertain the crowd. It seemed like Uden and Eindhoven were to close to each other to be both sold out show. We met with friends and had a blast and stood up for the last few songs and danced at the side.
