music events

I went to see Tony Bennett at Royal Albert Hall this week, followed by a night of Jazz by Kurt Elling at Ronnie Scotts. Both were amazing, contrasting styles, but similar in that they cover old songs.   What an amazing city London is – every night of the week, there is a musical event on.   I loved the venue at Ronnie Scotts, takes you away from real life,  perfectly sized venue to make you feel intimate with the performer, but not make you feel squashed like a sardine;  grown up in that you can sit at a table with your drink (and you can order food too).  I usually hate clubs and dark spaces, but I thought the evening was a perfect night out with friends and hear some great music.  Its great to see live performers and feel the atmosphere , the energy and the passion.
