If there are any other fans of the ex-Marillion front man, try and catch him on his current UK tour, as good as he has ever sounded!!!

Seen him in Edinburgh on Friday, fantastic!!!

I'll be completely honest with you i couldn't stand Marillion at all,Keyleigh just makes my blood creep,anyhoo.Saw Fish at Knockhill racing circuit in Scotland a few years ago and was blown away.Great performer,and ofcourse i was won over by the cheeky Scottish banter between the songs,top guy,just doesn't take himself seriously at all,really down to earth.

What did you think of Glyder the support band? I thought they were good, makes a change for a support!!!!

Whole gig was great I thought, Fish was sounding better than he has for a long time and Frank Usher's solo's, just a different league, especially since its only 3 months since he was in hospital with that massive heart attack!!!!

Still think Murray the sales guy has some unusual sales techniques....."Don't be shy, your mother wasn't...." " Come on you sgs, buy my shirts" etc etc!

TBH I thought the support were a dull ended up wandering off to the bar before they finished.

Fish was on form as usual amazing showman. Been a huge fan ever since Tommy Vance played 'Grendel' on the Friday Rock Show.

And daft as it sounds, after 20 years I still regard 'Clutching At Straws' as the new Marillion album.

Will probably see him again before the tour is over.
