Richard Free Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Great to see Betty Harris at the 100 club .She started off a little sluggishly with Mean Man but soon picked it up with great renditions of many classics and could still bang a tune out for sure .She's appearing in Manchester tonight and you never know it might be the last chance to see a truly great artist in th UK .What a great time we had listening to great music and meeting up with old friends and making a few new ones .What a great venue . 1
Chalky Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 I'll be there in Manchester. They are a bit strict about photographing so not sure what I can get. Looking forward to it though.
Richard Free Posted February 18, 2017 Author Posted February 18, 2017 She was signing a few records and it was no bother taking pics at the 100 club .Although I only took a couple and they weren't too good .Love your Stafford scribing Chalky!
Chalky Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Think Band On The Wall are a bit stricter, I had to get permission to take my camera in and can't use flash and can only take photos for first three songs Might just video form back. Either way I can't wait to see her after seeing some photos etc from last night. If 100 was tonight I'd have come down but no holidays left Thanks for your kind words, appreciated.
Richard Free Posted February 18, 2017 Author Posted February 18, 2017 Forgot to mention the backing singers were great .I always love the backing singers
hamyard Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Yes great gig last night. Much better than expected. My favourite was, RIde Your Pony, complete with formation dancing!
Eddie Hubbard Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Couple more photos ,wait till you hear this youngster sing ...... 3
Kevinkent Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Great show at the 100 Club last night. I wasn't sure what to expect from her varied repertoire, but Ride Your Pony, Trouble With My Lover, and 12 Red Roses amongst others certainly hit the spot for me. I was first in line for autographs and Betty signed a poster and a 10 x 8 photo for me - but begrudgingly, as she appeared under pressure from her entourage who were continuously demanding that she was only signing the sales stuff on the adjacent table. I thought that was unnecessary and a great pity. - Kev 1

Chalky Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Still struggling with the settings on the new camera and then got a telling off for taking photos by the management 2
Richard Free Posted February 19, 2017 Author Posted February 19, 2017 Well worth the telling off .A couple of cracking pics there Chalkie 1
Eddie Hubbard Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Yes ,great photos Chalky ,why do some clubs make life so difficult ?

All they had to do was ask the promoter if it was ok and there wouldn't have been a problem.
Richard Free Posted February 19, 2017 Author Posted February 19, 2017 Did you have to stand in the naughty corner 😁
