	Colin Lee, although having problems with his instrument, was excellent on lead guitar; however, he lacked the others' stage presence and only came over as a real entertainer during one solo played behind his head.

The ten or fifteen of us who were listening, however, are now looking forward to the 1st anniversary concert at the NEC in the presence of Prince William.
