We Will Rock You - photos please!

I'm still buzzing about how wonderful this show was. There were so many things I could pick out to mention:

  • the astonishingly professional performances of Bethan Marshall, Daniel Jackson, Ed Mellor, Teri-Marie Yoxall, Jenni McMahon, Adam Simpson and Amy Bould. All of them would grace any West End stage. 
  • Rob's fun dancing in Another One Bites The Dust 
  • the glorious singing of Beth Fallows, Becky Mellor and Kirsty Chadwick
  • the emergence of new talents, especially amongst Y9 (can't wait for the next show!) 
And the band, what a band! James Shufflebotham's glorious solo work, providing power, equalling Brian May's melodic gift. Joe Garvey's fluid and highly skilled bass playing. Tom Jones' drumming, powerful or sensitive, always perfect. For the first time in many years I was able to leave some of the keyboard work to another player - marvellous work from William Davenport. The band also had the superb support of Beth Eardley, Tom Hardwick, Jordan Picken and Ben Lockett. It was a great feeling to start the show with Innuendo, all the power of that opening beat made me feel like I was driving an expensive, but always reliable, luxury car.

Anyway, you'll notice that this post has no photos. Neither has a noticeboard in my classroom. So please bring in any photos you have and I'll put them up here or there!

Thanks for a wonderful show!
