Well what a night last night with friday night is music night.

:d I liked Juliet sheimann, but I also liked Jesica walker who I think has got a really stunning voice and personality.
The band was fantastic too.

I was fortunate enough to be at the recording of this FNIMN - a great evening and all singers were very well received by the audience. I had a few words with Jon afterwards also - very friendly and chatty!! Razz

The programme will be on listen again on the radio 2 site for a week, as usual. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/fridaynight/
