:: 17.12.02 : Beverley Knight UK Tour 'The Final Night' :

:: Photo Montage 1 :: Photo Montage 2 ::

Last night, Beverley Knight ended her current UK Tour with an AMAZING show in London's Hammersmith Apollo. This included the surprise guest appearance by Fame Academy's Lemar, during 'Beautiful Contradiction'. The collaboration came about, when Bev sent him an email last week, asking him to sing with her at the event. Lemar jumped at the chance! After the show, Lemar told Radio 1 that he was really chuffed with the performance - "You know, I was not nervous at all, and then she said 'Lemar' and I was so nervous it was unbelievable. But when I came out, the crowd were really nice - I had a great reception, so nice!". "In the academy I did a duet with Lionel Richie, I come out and do a duet with Beverley Knight, it's amazing - I'm on a little whirlwind right now and I don't want it to end."

Other highlights apart from Bev's whole set, included Rhianna singing 'Moon Is Blue' & her new single 'I Love Every Little Thing About You', DJ Pogo and his mixing, the outstanding vocals by the backing singers, and BK pulling a load of fans from the audience, up onto the stage during her last song 'Get Up!'. What a night!! Check out the pictures above (Thanx Cristina!)

:: 06.12.02 : Review Of Glasgow Gig Last Night (Thanx Alan Thorburn!) ::
When BK shimmied onto stage last night in Glasgow, in her tartan mini-skirt and tiny over-the-shoulder plaid, it was her thoughtful gesture to her Scottish audience "north-of-the-border". Understandably, she was welcomed with cheers of approval :)

But, this girl can stand free on her R&B credentials. It was her positivity, energy and raw power of her voice which soared its way into our hearts down to our feet which were boppin’ and stompin’ something awful for a set which lasted 1hr 45m including some gospel moments :)

Overcoming, the oh so predicatable initial lumpy sound mix, (why is this guys?) and some failures on the lighting rigs (!!!) things eventually settled down on the sound and she took us through some much improved versions from the B-Funk and Prodigal Sista albums; a superb bluesy version of Sista Sista to her latest Wyclef Jean produced Shape Of You which was thundered out in a hypnotic groove. No need for a click track when you have Carlos Hercules on drums and Steve Walters on bass.

Launching out on her UK singles Shoulda Woulda Coulda and Gold, little did BK realise her voice would break, and she would have to sit out, as she was drowned out by the audience singing her written words back to her with "pure gold" love. She was visibly overcome and grinned cheekily from ear to ear with the pleasure. What more could we do to make her feel welcome?

After, that the party was definitely ON bigtime - Ain’t Nothing Going On But The Rent started down the runway past Flava Of The Old School, (my particular fav) a brand new track Soon Come, then allowing her backing singers full centre stage for a vocal workout and into the encore of Get Up - as if we needed the invitation! A full band bow and farewell and they were off to the after gig party - no backstage passes for me :(

:: 03.12.02 : The Bristol Gig & Photos ::
The first night of Beverley Knight’s UK Tour went down a storm @ the Bristol Academy on Monday evening. The 'Prodigal Sista' herself kicked off the set with ‘Greatest Day’ followed by hits from her three fantastic albums, including 'Get Up', a remake of 'Sista Sista' and 'Flava Of The Old School'. BK even surprised fans with a brand new track called ‘Soon Come’, and ended the night with the remixed and reshaped version of ‘Shape Of You’. A few lucky fans (The Jess Fleming Crew!) also threw a teddy and a note up onto the stage, which BK read out, and cried to!
