Buying the tickets was one of those spur of the moment things... I'd heard him on the radio but never quite got around to buying the music - not even after I had the tickets on the shelf.
And so on a chilly March evening months later I was in Globen filing into Hovet to see.... James Blunt.
No preconceptions, no hype... Nice. I like it that way - not least when it turns out to be really GOOD. Good music - great voice and an impressive multimedia show alongside... all the more impressive as it was mixed live from two cameras by the stage.
And absolute best for me was 'No Bravery' - a song based on his time in Kosovo, played with video footage from the conflict in the background...
Moving, as good art should be.
