Jamie Cullum + Imelda May at Commodore Ballroom

So Anna and I were somewhat late in arrival to the Commodore on Saturday night.
Oh the time she sacrifices for the Canucks!

We caught the end of Imelda May’s rockabilly act.
They were really great, I wished at the time that I dressed in my polka dot dress instead.

We slid through the crowd to get closer to the front.
It was hard for us to see, so we got close to the stage as we could.

Actually, thanks to Monica and Leslie, they let me stand in front of them to take pictures for the rest of the night at the edge of the stage. Jamie early in the act played a lot on his piano, so I was lucky to see the top of his head when he was over on stage right.

We had a lot of fun and laughs, and I got a lot of snaps of him and his band-mates when they performed in the middle of the stage. And I couldn’t help sing along to almost all his songs…

And of course, Jamie rockin’ ends the night jumping off his piano.
This time Anna and I did not stay after the show to get our pictures with him – we froze our sorry butts last time.

I hope Matt Dusk comes to Vancouver and plays at the Commodore this year…
So far I only see dates in Ontario…

And I’m contemplating whether to go see BNL again in April at UBC, even if I already saw them at this Winter Games Victory ceremony…
