    I was there...what a concert, so emotional. And such a lovely band, they all made the effort after the concert to come and meet their fans, no egos, just genuinely nice people. Other bands could learn from them.

    Impeccable!!! So very very sad this highly talented man has tragically passed, what a loss for his family, band/friends. How can they replace him??

    Absolutely beautiful. Watched this twice now. I was there on that Sunday. I knew I’d get really emotional watching this. Kept it all in check until the brass kicked in. Those supreme guys never ever fail to stir me and reduce me to tears. Sublime.

    I felt so saddened about the loss of mr. Longdon to a point that I could not watch or listen to BBT for some time. It is strange to feel something like this for someone you don’t personally know. His music, the music of BBT has this power on me. Finally today I found the will to listen to this wonderful piece again.

      "We are expecting to premiere our Cadogan Hall concert film on November 26th at Everyman Cinema, Kings Cross. It's a nice modern art cinema, with a bar and comfy seats. We hope that the whole band will be there for a Q and A and to say hi to any attendees. About 100 tickets should be available for the event. More news on this in the summer."
