That’s one artist I’ve always liked but for some reason haven’t ever seen live, I’d better get a move on and sort that out before he gets too old to tour.

I also went to a gig last night - Kula Shaker in Bournemouth and they were excellent.

I saw my daughter dancing and singing on stage on Saturday. So proud of how much she has come along as a dancer and now as a singer.

It can be like that when they first start out, but after a while their ability should improve enough to make it enjoyable to watch. Although it helps if their teacher creates interesting choreography. My daughter's teacher has been putting on stage shows since 1988 so I guess that helps keep her biannual shows interesting.

Yes I know only too well. I have one granddaughter that has represented England at the Dancing World Cup (there is such a thing) twice. I went to Portugal to watch her, which they won. She is now moving on to taking it on professionally at a dance college while she goes to London at the weekends to train and dance with a troupe there. She also appeared for three years at panto at Christmas. She follows my son who is a professional musician in London and has done very well for himself travelling the world doing something he loves. I have been to watch countless performances with him growing up which have, shall we say, been not so entertaining. He did win a British Youth music championship at 15. I have other granddaughters who are not so talented but I am very proud of them all.

So yes I know only too well the long road ahead, both for them and me watching them. Sometimes very entertaining but other times sometimes just there for support.
