Brilliant 

 

Glasgow, SSE Hydro, April 23rd 2022.  £112.50 or £137.50 a ticket.

 

Before that there's a Christmas special a week before Christmas in Maastricht, and he's playing Amsterdam on January 8th.  You could do worse.

Where in Glasgow ? 

 

SSE Hydro.  Originally planned for April 2021 but postponed due to you-know-what.  His Maastricht pre-Christmas gig is indoors, whereas his more renowned Maastricht gigs are summertime events in the main square - usually through the month of July.

 

Here's a list of tour venues.

Go to one of his concerts in his home town Maastricht beginning of July annually in normal years - it’s a bucket list lifetime experience

Andre Rieu is classical music for people that don't understand classical music.

File under the same heading as Catherine Jenkins and Jane McDonald.

 

A bawhair away from being a Butlins act.

I can’t lie it’s not really my cup of tea. It’s hard to deny it’s is an amazing spectacle, though. I love it when they get pissed up and the crowd are waltzing down the aisles and stuff. If I had a drink or whatever and flicking through the channels I have found myself memorised and in hysterics over in equal measures. 
 

Fair play to the boy he has seen a niche in that market and utilised for the gain of many people. 

 

 

True . I like the juxtaposition of posh audience getting bevied up and really going to town dancing etc beats Dickens pub anytime 😂

What do you mean that surprises ya!!! Cheeky ****🤨🤣 

 

Haha does plenty for me James!!😍  love Jane , sure shes from Inverkeithing way originally 🤔 Celtica Nova are always worth a listen too. Traditional Scottish stuff with more than a hint of rock/metal in there... 

 

Theres a beautiful Josh Grobban/Kelly Clarkson track - All I Ask of You that I love too

 


My favourite song however is The Kymatiks - That Road Live... Just blows me away every time I hear it...

 

(ill go back to being the stereotypical 40+year old white man now)

Lol only joking u I assumed you were in your 20s for some reason !!! Not that keen on Andrew Lloyd Webber but that song is no bad . Saw Streisand sing “ the music of the night” in concert with a few tenors . Incredible . Open air concert too .

Jesus no , I wish I was , at times i might get away with claiming 30/35 but long past there....

 

Im not a huge Lloyd Webber fan either but there is the odd song. I like the film Chicago too if that adds to the surprise 🤣

He always reminds me of a guy from the 1994 Stephen King series The Stand.
