Yes it was lovely to get away even for a night, have not been away for over five years, but i am such a homebody, i was glad to be home again, i missed my kitties,yes i was glad that America were up to scratch too, i did think the sound system could have been a bit better though, it was so loud, that the love songs which are very sweet and melodious came out a bit harsh, gerry's voice is not as good as it used to be, but considering he is getting on, he still performed well and i was happy. Dewey on the other hand was top notch, his voice is really great,but then he does not do the high stuff., i was bummed out they were selling their latest cd, but only cash sales and i did not have any on me, so i guess i will have to pay a bit more and get "here and now" in the shops.
