    ^ someone referred to her as aloof on twitter the other day, she did comment on it. Not in an arsey way, just said she was really tired.

    I should have said "alleged aloof" , it says more about the reviewer if he wishes to negatively angle his review than the group/singer , I prefer the truth , she was just quiet after a life stealing tour across many lands .

    Unless I am severely deluded I thought Alison was chatty and charming....but what do I know.

    She was quiet relative to Manchester and thingybob House , not that it caught my ear (or not) on the night .

    Well guys do not forget, Alison should blow kisses. Tell the crowd how much she loves them after every track. Something like a footballer kissing the badge when he scores a goal. I call it false. Seems like some saddos want that. Myself i want to hear Alisons amazing voice whos music means so much to me. It gets listened in good and bad times. And anything to the crowd she does do is meant.

    I liked the bit introducing Clay:

    Alison: This is about two soldiers who fall in love

    Person in Crowd: WOOO! YEAH!

    Alison: Indeed

    Look, all these reviews need to bother to say is Goldfrapp once again performed a stonking show which was hugely appreciated my their dedicated audience and fan base. They performed a terrific set, backed by a fantastic group of musicians and fronted by one of the UK's most under rated talented singers.
    Plus Alison is one darn sexy lady :\">

    My sis is not easily swayed from her standard music taste but she was stunned by what they produced on Fri and was moved both by Als performance and the depth of the sound. They have yet another new fan me thinks.... :)

    It was such a fun night. Here's my review - the lights, were BRILLIANT, the sound was great, Alison sounded perfect, my company was amazing.........

    (this is coming from someone who is trying to get on an MA course in critical theatre writing - I'm sorry, my skills will not appear here....)

    Great gig. Hearing yellow halo and Thea was an amazing experience ..... I am tired, and I am done. But it was amaing to see you all - I love the frapp crew and I love the band more than I could ever express.

    Your company was the best you've ever had ;)

    ^ I'm not sure if you two helped keep each other's over-emoting in check, or the joint effort resulted in a more intense meltdown, but it was fun to witness, lol. :-)

    Exactly.  I'm not sure why anyone bothers to read the reviews.  I know I haven't.
