Billy Ocean - 11 May 2010

Billy Ocean visited King George’s Hall on 11 May with his band and what a concert he put on! Performing hits from over 30 years including songs from his new album, Billy had the audience going wild with classic favourites “Caribbean Queen”, “Suddenly”, “Love Really Hurts Without You” and plenty more. Everyone was up off their seats dancing in the aisles and singing along, having a fantastic night. A few ladies were also lucky enough to get a kiss from the smooth legend!

Were you there? What did you think?

i thought that he was fantastic-an incredible performance given his age -pity i could not say the same about the support act—dreadfull

Excellent entertainment, what a man!
top show all round, Billy and the band are fab

Billy Ocean was absolutely amazing!!!! It’s official…… he’s still got the whole package - incredible live singer, some seriously fancy footwork skills & just a great all-round entertainer with the added bonus of being a genuinely nice guy, shaking hands with as many audience members as possible & getting us all involved in the show. Billy - we love you!

Yes I was there with my daughter and mother and we all really enjoyed with an age range from 18 - 63…. so that just shows he still as it and what a great night was had by all!!!

Billy Ocean was fab last night…I can’t believe what an awesome performance he put on for a man of his age…what a singer, what an entertainer and what a genuinely great guy!

What a great performance from Billy Ocean. He was full of energy and held the audience for the entire show which lasted over 90 minutes. He is a class entertainer and we would recommend his show to everyone. He is playing a venue in June in Blackpool and we are considering going to watch him again ……

Wow wee he rocked I hope I’m still shaking my tic tacs like that at 60 I had a fab night he rocked the hall and will defo be seeing him again!! Now roll on June 10th x

Billy Ocean was fantastic, we saw him last year in Bolton nd had such a good time we had to see him again! We sang our earts out, it was a great party atmosphere, we waited behind after the show and met Billy (I have lovely pic to prove it!), what a lovely man. I would definately go to see him again, a great night out.

What an amazing man ! He and the band were fantastic ! He took me back (as we are the same age) and I had a brilliant night. I took my daughter who is also a massive fan and we both danced and sang all night ! Please Please bring him back for another gig soon, we loved him . We shook hands with him , what a warm and modest man he is . money well spent , come back soon Billy Ocean !!!!

3rd time seeing the genius, an infectious smile which is genuine. Once again a brilliant evening and would definitley go again to see Billy. Would like to say that the support act was good but feel that the time spent listening was a waste of part of my life.

How many of todays acts will still be around in 30 years time bringing smiles to peoples faces of all ages, races and religions.

Stuff David Cameron Billy Ocean for PM :o)

Billy Ocean is an amazing act to say that he has been around for over thirty years is magnificent. We had a thoroughly fantastic night and being in the same age group as him we would like to know where he gets all his energy from. A truly genuine man and a perfect artist, hope he stays around for many more years. We love you Billy.

Billy Ocean forever, truly magnificent.

Wow! what a grest show. Billy was unbeliveable. We can’t believe he’s 64!!! It was a brilliant night. Fun times of the 80’s came flooding back. Billy seemed to be having a good time to. He spent a lot of time shaking hands and even giving the odd kiss, all while singing his hits. A couple of us even managed to get his autograph after the show. Sadly he wasn’t able to come to us but I think that was more the venues choice rather than his! Another fan had seen him at a different venue and said he came out for photo’s and even a chat!?

Absolutely fantastic night. Billy was brilliant from start to finish! And I agree with Neville-the support act was awful.

But soon forgot about that when Billy came out!!

Enjoyed every minute of it. We had front row seats and danced our socks off. Billy Ocean is a legend. Please bring him back soon.

We disagree about the support act. We loved Kele le Roc, maybe it’s an age thing, but she had a fantastic voice and we knew all her songs

A top night

Billy was fabulous as usual (seen him 3 times now) the band drowned him out occasionally support band good voice but needed more tthan keyboards and gutiar.
Going again to Blackpool
