Rolf Harris Live at the Bristol Hippodrome

Well I have been looking forward to this performance from Rolf Harris since ordering the tickets last year.
The audience were told there were to be no photographs taken from any device including mobile phones and if a glow from the latter was seen the user would be asked to leave. Ushers lined the aisle looking into the crowd. I have to say this is the first show that I have been to where this was enforced
I did snap a shot of the empty stage before the show started.


The performance was fantastic and Rolf is a true performer. The show had it all singing painting wobble board and didgeridoo.
It started with a standing ovation due to this being Rolf's first show since all the finger pointing that's been happing to most of older performers and not something I am even going to write here.
Rolf read out  a few words sent to him by fan's and I quote one of the more memorable one 'it is not about waiting for the storm to pass. It is about learning to dance in the rain'. Quite poignant me thinks.
All in all a very entertaining evening that I enjoyed.
