They were absolutely brilliant !

Justin & John were well on form, crystal clear sound, what surprised me was they did all old stuff, nothing new, it was 90% from the core 7 albums, like 3 from Days Of Future Past, heres the set list;

ACT 1

THE VOICE
DAY WE MEET AGAIN
SLIDE ZONE
GYPSY
TUESDAY AFTERNOON
LEAN ON ME TONIGHT
NEVER COMES THE DAY
PEAK HOUR
I KNOW YOU’RE OUT THERE SOMEWHERE
STORY IN YOUR EYES

ACT 2

WILDEST DREAMS
ISN’T LIFE STRANGE
THE OTHER SIDE OF LIFE
DRIFTWOOD
HIGHER AND HIGHER
ARE YOU SITTING COMFORTABLY
SINGER IN A ROCK & ROLL BAND
LATE LAMENT
NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN
QUESTION
------------------- ENCORE---------------------
RIDE MY SEE SAW

'Nights' was superb, huge sound and they got a thunderous applause for that, even Graeme did the Late Lament poetry preceding it and he did Higher & Higher of course, he also announced he was now 70 and made a few jokes about it!
They had a 2nd drummer as well as him who hammered out some great rhythms..

This is the 3rd time Ive seen them, 1st time was in 1969 at Manchester Uni (a long time ago), which was fantastic with the original line up....saw them again in the 80's but didnt enjoy that as it all sounded sort of sequenced and didnt sound Moody Blues enough, last night was like hearing the old MB's

Right on mate, I am glad that you had a blast! The set list is excellent as usual. You're definitely inspiring me to want to see THE MOODY BLUES again, I'll be looking for them when they come by either Texas or California. Thanks for the info mate.

They played 'Peak Hour'? Damn, thats one of my favorites from them and one i'd love to see them do. Great setlist and glad you had a good time Kev.

Aww...it sounds wonderful. I had my iPod on shuffle during my dinner break at work tonight and the Moody Blues came up like four times in that hour. I was hoping I'd find a report on the concert tonight!

I think they are probably the band that I'd most like to see. I watched one of their concerts on PBS a few years ago and it was amazing.

I only have 2 complaints about it

1) Hate the clothes theyre wearing
2) Ray Thomas only sings 1 song (he has the strongest voice imo)

There's always Pros and Cons mate, the main thing is that the music was outstanding! Take care mate.

1) It was 1992. What do you expect?
2) But what a great performance he gave. He didn't have to do another song that night.

What's up Hello Goodbye! That whole performance was magical! Take care.

I saw the Moody Blues in concert four times during the 90's, three times with symphony orchestras (Long Island and New Jersey Philharmonic Orchestras). But my favorite concert was a small club venue at Caesar's Palace in Atlantic City where we sat at a table stageside.

I'll never forget that!

That's cool Hello Goodbye! I saw THE MOODY BLUES four times as well, three in the 1980's and one in the 1990's. I have to look for all four of them in my shoe boxes. THE MOODY BLUES were a great musical experience to see live. I'm still jealous that you saw CREAM live in 2005.

I got to exchange a few words with Justin Hayward between songs at Caesar's. I wish I could remember what I said. I was so starstruck!

Are you sure that it wasn't more than just starstruck!
