Richard Hawley

Welcome to the forum - and glad your son liked the music - music being the operative word as opposed to The Prodigy!

Was at the gig last night,was lucky enough to get front row seats.Have to agree with all the comments so far,this was the best gig i have been to of Richards.The sound in the auditorium was amazing.the newer tracks really blew me away live and Richards voice just gets better and better. My fav on the night was,"for your lover give some time", shez is one hell of a guitarist,and also "run for me" with the new reworked beginning,would love to hear this on record sometime.thanks Richard and band a magical magical evening,

There is a similar (but not quite the same) version of Run for Me on the Devils Arse soundtrack.

As they would say in Sheffield "F***ing brilliant"
In Bexhill we were a little more refined.
But you still rocked our sox off.
Keep Bexhill on the next tour schedule; parking is easy and free.
Thanks for a great show

C'n'J

thanks everyone for your kindness,we loved the gig last night,some of us drove home after the show to Sheffield so sorry we weren't around to say hello i loved your town nice place i will return one day

thank you, run for me has always been one of my favorites,when i heard Richard play it live recently on the Marc Riley show on the radio,just loved the haunting opening with just vocal and piano,so so beautiful.

Check the Songs section, downloads thread and the link to the Mark Riley stuff should still be live.

I travelled down from london to Bexhill - sorry to have missed Lisa Marie at the london gig but the performance more than made up for it. David Coulter is a great addition and the banter between songs gets me everytime.
really enjoyed Smoke Fairies too, i think they'll go far.

maybe one more date before the tour is over!

We had fantastic seats at Bexhill.Really fantastic and the best we have seen the boys on this tour so far.The crowd were top notch and there was something really enjoyable telling the band to ''Fuck Off !!''.
Excellent tour Richard and everyone connected with it.
Liverpool and Sheffield still to go for us.

The subject has probably been tacked elsewhere on the forum, but I haven't seen it..does anyone know if Richard is due ot appear on this series of 'Later'? I know he is a favourite of Jools Holland & with the new album out now, surely it's gotta happen!!

The possibility of an appearance was mentioned last week but nothing had been firmed up.

Thank you for putting on a great show at the De La Warr Pavillion on Friday, it was fantastic, well worth the travel although did not travel as far as we have done in the past, your shows are always such a pleasure to see, you never fail to please. A big thank you also for signing the photo's and CD covers, very much appreciated. Looking forward to the next one and hoping one day you may come to The Hawth in Crawley, West Sussex.
Regards

I agree, Bexhill is a great place. We stayed for 2 nights in an absolutely fabulous b&b and spent Saturday after the gig wandering round the town. Enjoyed the local ale basking in the scorching hot sun on the balcony of the De La Warr pavilion. Bliss.

What a shame the train journey back was not as enjoyable - bloody Sunday rail works on the Bexhill to London Victoria line and then Kings Cross to Edinburgh. GRRRRRRRR
