Fully
Booked, Scotland, 2nd Aug
9:33am
Boyzone appear on stage. They were dressed all in black with Ronan,
Shane and Keith in ankle length black coats and Steve and Mikey in normal
black jackets. They chatted with presenters Gail
Porter, Tim Vincent and Chris Jarvis for a moment before disappearing.
9:58am
They then came on to sing 'Picture of You'-live! They sounded quite
bad, but at least they had the guts to sing live. It was only Ro who actually
sang, with the others going 'um'.
Steo's
voice did seem to come though towards the end. Considering he was
singing on his own, Ro was brilliant-he keptthe whole song going
all the way through. At the end they sang
nicely
without backing.
10:38amCame
back on to answer questions. They said they thought Glasgow was the
best venue to play and Party in the Park was thebest gig. By
now Shane had taken his coat off and now was wearing a sleeveless black
top. They said they would be releasing a Greatest Hits album in March-could
this spell the nd of BZ?!?
11:30amSteve
and Keet appeared back to discuss Disc Drive with Tim Vincent and to pick
a winner for a competition.
11:43amAll
the Boyz arrive back on to play 'The End of the Show Show'. Ronan, Keith
and Shane were on Gail's team, while Steo, Mikey and Hinda Hicks(who is
a confirmed support for the Sept/Oct tour) were on Tim's team. Everyone
kept booing Tim's team (I take it was because Ro was on the other team!).
Gail's team won the 1st round by 10 points, Tim's tim won the 2nd round
by 20 points and Tim's team won in the end by 60 points!
11:50amBoyz
ran over to mini-stage to sing 'No Matter What'. Standing order(L-R),
Mikey, Shane, Steo, Ro, Keet. They were singing live.
They were very good, much better than when they sang 'Picture Of
You'. Steve was especially good. Ro improved towards
the end. Steo was incredible all the waythrough! Again
at the end they sang without backing.
Later
on in the day, I congratulated Steve on his excellent performance and I
asked him if he'd be singing the lead more, he said: "You never know, I'd
like to sing lead vocals more". |
