Even mark the unpronouncable name drummer was out of sorts at times.
One or two times felt a bit bland and flat,
Some songs weren't as rocky as they should have been,
Now and again felt like one of the players was ahead of them self or someone was a tadge behind because didn't feel like they was quite in tune with each other at the right time,
One of the guitarist hadn't been playing with them long and truthfully you could tell,
They got the crowd going and they loved it,
All in all, was a decent night but in comparison to the original line up the 80-the 90s it was a bit of a disappointment, I'm glad I saw them with Stuart and Tony Butler because if this was my first time seeing them I’d had felt let a little down.
I saw original BIG COUNTRY back in the day and it was a rocking night. Everybody jumping around, it was great.
A few years ago I saw them again at a small venue. The sound was awful. Mixing desk really messed up. The band and the fans were annoyed. The gig was ruined.
