This is Tony Cox. In a previous posting, I wrote about how much I loved his very brief performance at a charity event I attended. Last Saturday, I managed to watch him in a full length performance. He was brilliant. I was completely mesmerised. He tells stories about each of his songs, why and how he got to compose them. None of the stories are about mind blowing revelations, just about ordinary stuff and the normal things that happen to us. Even so, the music was phenomenal and I was riveted. I desparately needed to pee, but wasn't prepared to miss a note of his show. It was the kind of music/evening that made you feel enriched for having experienced it. I bought a dvd and cd and he signed it for me - that's always a nice touch. He was gracious.

One small thing - his posters and website still show pics of him with lovely long wavy curly hair. Clearly they need to update that.
