Great show from Loudon in London - one of his best performances that I have seen. He was on form and appeared to enjoy every minute of it.

Sometimes I Forget
A Father And A Son (dedicated to John Peel - one of his favorites)

Loudon was on top form in manchester too. Was great to hear a mix of old and new setlists, and the same goes for the audience. With ages ranging from 8 to 80, mysely (19) my sister(22) and my dad (61) felt right at home. It was great to see a performer who played such a large part in our childhood both comically and emotionally still eminating the passion we are so used to hearing. New album shows changes in the focus of his songs, but still as musically creative as ever. Live on gordondon!
