Two Reports By Mamen Hernandez and

Report By
Mamen Hernandez:
It was the first time I was at Wembley Arena
and I was really happy!! I was there with my friends showing a big
smile and carrying a big Spanish flag,to show GARY that Spain is
supporting him even when his new wonderful album is no out here.
I have just one word to descreibe Gary's new live show....BEAUDY!!!!!
Gary knows how to make us have the best
X-Mas! Everyone was waiting for Gary, the questions: How would he
be dressed? What song would open the show?....But all these questions
stopped when the lights went off and the music started!!!!
"Arms Around Me" was the one to open the
show. Gaz played it on the piano and was GORGEOUS!!!He looked absolutely
sexy with the T-shirt he wears inside "For All That You Want ".Then
"Wondering" and "For All That You Want".
What a surprise hearing the wonderful version
that he did of "Stronger"!!! Of course,after some untempo songs
it was the time for a ballad..."Don't Need A Reason" was tha first
one.With it we were able to feel Gary's voice power. Of course,Gary
doesn't forget Take That and sang "Pray "(My fave song ever!!!)
which wasn't only performed by Gaz, the whole Wembley joined him.
Then "All That I've Given Away" and his
first solo sigle "Forever Love".The silence in the stadium made
Gary's voice sound better than ever!!!! Another surprise was "Looking
For Change" a wonderful song!!!."Lie to Me" was the one to remind
us how sweet Gary can be. And of course, it was time to remember
Take That."Back For Good" started, the crowd sang with Gaz during
this one.
Then a special version of "Love Ain't Here
Anymore", "Never Forget" was the one to remind us of Take
That's live shows...the whole of Wembley clapped and sang along....
But just after that it was time for another surprise...it was the
time to see a GARY very similar to the TAKE THAT one..."Relight
My Fire".With this one Gary danced, jumped, clapped....and of course
with this one Gary presented his new band.
It was time for another very special moment..."Yesterday's
Girl"....BEAUDIFUL!!! Live is even better. It was almost the end
of the show, but firstly Gary played "Open Road" to remind us his
first solo album and what better than an x-mas song to say good
bye to the Millenium???
Merry X-mas(War is over) was the final song
which Gary performed with a chorus of children.BEAUDIFUL!!! Undoubtely
it is the best live show you could ever dream.
Of course between song and song Gaz joked,talked
etc...One of the most emotional moments was when Gary kneeled and
apologized about cancelling his UK tour twice...The whole of Wembley
shook with the applause. Another funny moment was when Gaz started
to ask for CHOCOLATE!!!! Nobody can't go without chocolate to a
Gary Barlow concert!!!!! Even GAZ joked about the media!!!!
Well, it was the first time I was in London,
in a Gary concert and I have to say to everyone that you should
go to a Gary live show...it's worth!!!!
Thank you ever so much Gary for making
me feel happy when I'm sad and for writing the best songs I ever
heard! Never Forget your fans.
.....Love ya always....Mamen Hernandez:

I had originally bought my tickets to see gary
back in 1988 and the concert got cancelled twice. So when I did
go to see him I thought it was well worth the wait. Gary sang and
sounded fantastic and would just like him to know that it was the
best concert I have been to in a long time and I hope there will
be lots more soon.
