Children in Need Rocks 2013. An uplifting experience - such a talented and versatile group of musicians (including my wife Melanie Lewis-McDonald) doing justice to the music of such a disparate lineup of artists: Little Mix, Rizzle Kicks, Robbie Williams, Ellie Goulding, Barry Manilow, The Wanted Gary Barlow, Agnetha Official.. (Well draw a veil over the unpleasant rock version of The Floral Dance to introduce Terry Wogan - we played it precisely twice - once in rehearsal and once on the night, it shall never be spoken of again..) But I have to say that rehearsing, performing and if Im honest, just being in the same room as the profound genius of JEFF LYNNE was truly spiritual (and incredibly cathartic for those of us of a certain age), and the fact that he and fellow ELO member Richard Tandy were so obviously moved and were so generous in their praise for our treatment of their music made this one of the very proudest moments of my life. In the words of the great David St. Hubbins, I envy us. Thanks again Jeff Lynne.
