I have been to Gate before and love the intimacy of the place and on both occasions I have been there the sound has been terrific. The concert was fantastic Grahams voice was pretty much perfect and his band were quality. He played four or five 10cc songs and twenty or so that he had written for other top bands throughout the years or for his own solo career. Graham also gave a back story to many of the songs providing humor and poignancy to the event. Lovely concert, lovely venue and a really nice bloke.
