incase anyone was planning on coming along, just got this from the mr kyps mailing list ...

Hey Folks,

Just a quick message to say that the Nick Harper gig on Thursday has now sold out. However, if you have not yet got your tickets and were intending to come, please email us or call 01202 748945 and let us know. If there is sufficient demand then we will move this gig from our in-the-round setting to the main stage, meaning we can fit more people in.

In addition, if you have already bought tickets for the in-the-round show and would much prefer that it wasn't moved, please also let us know as we want to act in the best interests of both those with tickets and those unfortunate to miss out.

Please let us know your thoughts... either way we anticipate a fantastic show!

Best Wishes,
Romin
Mr Kyps

Cool beans! That is great news for the kick off! I have a feeling this may be replicated at a number of other dates too.

Heed my advice all: BUY TICKETS NOW! Don't leave it and be disappointed.

update

Hey Folks,

After much deliberation and a high demand for tickets, the Nick Harper gig wil now be moved onto the main stage to allow as many people as possible to come in to see this wonderful show.

Tickets are now freely available and are back on-line for 24hr sales.

Anyone who had tickets for the original show and is not happy with the re-schedule may apply for a full refund, and please accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. We hope that the majority of you will be pleased for the opportunity to see Nick Harper with such a big crowd of fellow Harperspace Cadets.

There will still be tables and chairs at the front of the room so anyone who's disappointed about the gig now not being in-the-round will still be able to sit and watch Nick up-close so long as they arrive early (doors open 8pm)!

The vibe will be different than in-the-round but we know Nick rises to any occasion (he has played on the main stage before) and always creates a unique experience.

We hope you enjoy the show.

[HarperPR]

Thanks for update, Hatt. Just bumping this to front again as it's imminent.

Arise, Sir Nick!

amor mundi

hatty :)

[critch]

Sounds like a fantastic night. So jealous...

I'm really glad love is music is back in it. To me, it was always the show piece. The one that gripped you, turned you upside down, and dropped you, just at the point in the show where you begining to think you were getting a handle on him. Particularly if it includes a string break.

I know nick is probably sick of it by now, but that's the way. Rachmaninov got sick of playing that prelude (the one that starts with those 8va bassa minins, da da dum) but it's what the people want, and they're paying the wage.

I really hope he did blood song too. That is mesmerising. The version on the dvd is unbelievable, but live it just sends me into a jibbering wreck. But i could go on for hours about songs i'd like him to play...

Was there much banter?

[fickle_Witch]

nope no bloodsongs, but imaginary friend was, which did make me shed a tear as my grandad died in june and heres me welling up just thinking about it.
will put it all in my review ;) giving things away here! :rofl:

[scotpaulabear]

nope no bloodsongs, but imaginary friend was, which did make me shed a tear as my grandad died in june and heres me welling up just thinking about it.

That song turns me into a small pile of goo. Always. In the nicest way possible :blushing: it so makes me think of my grandmother, who died suddenly back in Boston while I was living here. Even 10+ years later, sometimes I think that if I go back home she'll still be there waiting at our old house to give me a hug, make cookies with me and sit down to some soap operas... *sigh* :crying:

But I digress...

Hatt, I'm sending you hugs and thanks for reviewing, I want to feel like I was there, it's the withdrawal you know :rofl:

[fickle_Witch]

kwym paula
{{{hugs back at cha}}}
kinda had wind knocked out of me on the way home, so doubtful it is going to be the long waffle i was expecting to write, altho, tis coming along ;)

candles lit for your grandma and my grandad, nicks mum, and everyone that we love and arent here to hold.

I agree! Must admit I've always also thought I'd rather he separated 'Headless' & 'LiM', as I love both songs - mebbe it'd be a way of making himself less sick of it (if he is)! :wink:

love

Moth

[fickle_Witch]

they were merged, i prefer it as it really keeps makes you part of the music, or maybe that is just me ;) i've always been kinda hypnotised by guitarist tho!

Thanks Hatt! And I'll add my papa and Big D's dad to that as well... *hugs hugs hugs*

[wessexy witch]

Cooooeeeeeeeeeeee!

Hullo Moth !!
****waves like a mental****
:hurray:

[critch]

Thanks Hatt! And I'll add my papa and Big D's dad to that as well... *hugs hugs hugs*

I'll add my Dad to that too. He's forever with me in my heart! A lot of the things in the song ring true. I do still talk to him, all the time...

[fickle_Witch]

[HarperPR]

Thanks for great review, Hatty. Fast work too. Hope the Kyps people appreciate.

[fickle_Witch]

thanks for the help! will get sent off to mr kyps now :D

[wessexy witch]

Just spoken to my dad and he said he enjoyed himself last night.
It was somewhere he would never of gone off his own back and has never heard of Nick (or Roy which suprised me).He said it was packed out (told him it was a sell out) and everyone else seemed to enjoy themselves too.
:biggrin:

Glad he had a good time.
Thought he would.He plays guitar and banjo himself when the wine is flowing !

[pd]

Didn't he do well!

(sorry, I couldn't resist)

[HarperPR]

Probably a lot would be in agreement with this.
