saw The Simps 3 weeks ago at wolverhampton civic hall....

still brilliant! musically tight, new FANTASTIC backing singer called Sarah - over the last few tours they'e missed a female backing vocal on the Once Upon A Time tracks an classics....

Opened with their latest single Broken Glass Park - was really good, as is some other new album stuff they done

loads of older stuff, New Gold Dream, I Travel, Love Song.... didnt do Belfast Child though, prob due to Jim's voice - still, plenty of other fantastic stuff from Sparkle in The Rain, Celebration, OUAT, NGD and newer stuff (Shes A River)

absolutely rocked the place out! Now seen them 17 times over 25 years and still loving them.

Enjoy!
