Lovely people
What really made Zurich a special night for me was getting to go into the after show party and have a chat with the band. Chris was very relaxed (the show had been a corker after all!) and we chatted about how things were going for both him and myself on this tour. I said that we'd been getting a great response to the campaign, and people were signing the petition in their thousands. He was really pleased to hear that, and not in a rock star kind of way, but because he is genuinely interested.
He's only a few years older than I am, but he has the presence and aura of someone who's been around for years, but also the energy and vitality of a kid. You notice it as soon as you enter the room. He's clearly a man with a lot going on, and being constantly in demand must really take it out of him. But there is not a hint of pretentiousness or arrogance - a genuine star!
I also had a really good chat with Jonny who is one of the nicest guys I've ever met. We were comparing notes on the various European cities that we'd visited. Unfortunately, he had a bit of a cold so I did most of the talking, and I think he was pleased when I had to go and clear up the stand!
