OK will do  I have been to a lot of the X-Factor Tours Last time I was disappointed as they didnt have a compere - just Dermot on a large screen introducing each one - pre recorded - not sure where he was doing it from Felt a bit cheated really |

That's a bit surprising! I'm not surprised you felt cheated.  Was it good seeing the 'acts' for real, though? |

I went to the tour at the Nottingham Arena in 2006 when Leona won, if I recall the contestants compered that year. Can't say I've had the urge to go again.

Yes it was great - I saw Rhydian who was my fav to win One of the "Over's" - forget her name - was quite drunk and in the end her hair was all over the place - she looked a right mess i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/shocked.gif I noticed Belle Amie are not on the tour |

Have'nt heard it JW but she has a good voice. I did get a copy of Susan Boyle's first CD, it was excellent.
I'm sure you'll have a great time at the show at the weekend. Is there a crowd of you going?

Thanks FB it depends on how much they cost The programme is around £10 - £15 - they know how to get money out of you |

As with all these things I'm sure it'll be an expensive night out. The tickets are probably not cheap either.

A book signing - what book Lady have I missed something Well in 12 months the Manchester Evening News arena had taken on new lighting and a centre stage that rose up from the floor - that way the crowds at the end had a good view And a bridge from the main stage at the end to the one in the middle The lighting was amazing - I noticed this on the TV show - and they brought it to the MEN - well done MANCHESTER Rebecca brought tears to many people's eyes as she sang a very emotive song but for some reason when they all came on the stage at the end for the final curtain she was not there Matt was everything I thought he would be (You can bring that newspaper cutting up with you FB and I will give you a cheque for it - a bouncing type one) They were not selling the pink cowboy hats this year but instead pink bunches you clipped on your head that lit up - I didnt get any |
