JUNE 25th - Concorde 2, Brighton UK 

(thank you very much Laura for the scans and Jo for the review!!)

 

 

What better way to spend a warm summers evening...arriving at the Concorde 2 on Brighton seafront, full of excitement and anticipation, to be greeted my Michael Franti and the boys playing football outside, and generally chilling out before the show.

 

Willing to stop and say hello, and take some pictures, both Michael and Radio Active managed to make us feel welcome just by being there. Playing in a great venue, the band really got the place jumping from the outset.

 

Playing tracks from there new album - which as to be expected, are superb, and some old tracks from "home" thrown in too, the boys kept on going for nearly three hours. As the venue was quite small, it was certainly an intimate gig. And as the evening progressed, meeting new faces and enjoying that vibe that only Michael can create, it was certainly the most warming and enjoyable time, and place to be.

 

Being part of such a beautiful evening, and leaving with my friends feeling sooooo good, my only wish was to be able to sit and share some more time with Michael, one of the most spiritual, and free souls I have ever had the pleasure of seeing.
