Tonight Steven & I attended the most fab Francis Dunnery concert held at The Walls restaurant in Oswestry. It is was just a small intimate gathering to celebrate the end of his UK tour and we had the most fantastic time - we were sat right next next to the stage. Despite this being the night - his voice was in fine form and as a celebratory treat - Robert Plant - from Led Zeppelin came along and did a song with him - Steven could not believe it - he is so famous.
So why am I sad - because my photos are just plain awful!
I foolishly took the little compact camera as it always works well for Steven, but I am so used to my DSLR & my bridge camera - that I did not realise that you had to manually pop up the flash - mine do it automatically - so without the flash on - the photos are black & blurred. Steven is also upset as he managed to have his photo taken with Robert Plant and wanted to use it for his screen saver.
So here are the most terrible photos I have ever taken on what was most probably one of the best nights of my life!
At the Wall's gigs, a meal is included in the ticket prices - this is our table. The food was gorgeous - diet had to go out of the window tonight.
This where we sat - right next to the stage - I have been so lucky with my tickets lately.
Another view from inside the restaurant.
Frankie in action - he has most beautiful voice!
Frankie & Dorie Jackson - she sings lead vocals and she has the most beautiful voice as well!
Robert Plant on stage.
Robert & Frankie 'jammin' on stage
Me & the gorgeous Dorie.
Steven and the hairy Robert Plant.For those of you who have made it through these terrible photos - well done and as a thank you - here is a lovely short video of Frankie & Dorie singing one of the songs they did last night - its well worth watching.

Oh Deb! I'm so sorry that you're disappointed with your photos, but glad you had a fab night...what a fantastic venue!
I remember when we got back from Canada and Alaska feeling the same about my photos. We'd had such a fantastic time and seen some amazing places, yet the photos "just didn't capture it". Yet in time, my memories faded and all I have left is the photos, and now they seem much more perfect than they ever did.
I hope in time you grow to love your photos...
such a shame about the photos Deb but what fantastic memories i sometime find if you make them black an white they do look quite so bad:)
Oh Deb what a shame you're so disappointed with your photos but they really aren't that bad. They still capture the moment and record a special night. Don't be upset.
I don't know of Francis Dunnery so will watch the video in a mo, but to see and be so close to Robert plant, WOWEEE!!!!
Sorry your photos were disappointing, I know how you feel!
