Feelings were very strong for me too on this 4th of june, but for different reasons.
First, I was very happy to meet all the fans who came in Holmfirth ; I kind of "knew" them before because of this forum (even though if sometimes I got mixed up between the forum names and the real names :laugh: ).
A special thank to Karen and her deep kindness ; she made us feel at ease and welcame us in the Holly Family (or may be Harley Family ? ;) ).
Second, I had a strong and strange feeling when Steve Harley arrived on stage. I have been listening to all his albums regularly for the past 30 years but never seen him "for real" before ... What a curious sensation ...
But he was there and well there. Standing on his 2 feet with a sort of happy strenght that left no doubt about his pleasure to play in the Picturedrome.
When he began to sing, I must confess some tears rolled on my cheeks ... But after this moment of deep emotion, the words of the songs came naturally on my lips and I sang along, with everybody. Because yes indeed ! EVERYBODY was singing ! Everybody seemed so happy to be there as well. What an atmosphère !!!
Steve Harley has impressed me because he is REALLY THERE, if you see what I mean : he loves his fans, he loves playing with his musicians, he loves singing, playing for us.
Very generous personn ...
I had a tremendous night on friday night, I will never forget it.
Thank you Steve, ans thank you to all the open hearted fans I met.

I found very strange that there was no posters nor any kind of annoucement of the Steve Harley concert outside the Picturedrome :S
Any explanation ?
