We went to the latter because my husband wanted a case of Leffe Brune but they'd sold out. They only had six packs left but they were 95 dibs

John Legend playing in Dubai, because it's made the mrs and her Mother (visiting) very happy when I surprised them with tickets.
Should be a good night I hope.

Re: Room 010
Anyone who gives themselves the name "Legend" - because his real name is Smith or something - should be treated with deep suspicion.

I'm not much of a fan at all, but I'm no hater. He can call himself what he wants, Elton John's middle name is Hercules and I still think he's awesome.

Re: Room 010
I knew 4 songs it turns out.
It was alright, good to see a great performer - his voice is fantastic.
Crowd definitely full of people like me who knew a few songs. There were parts in the middle where he played and the crowd just chatted.
All acts were the same I think for the Jazz Festival - coming on at 10:30pm which is too late I think.
Venue is better than it used to be as well, more enclosed with a huge VIP bit behind, but as all things here it's overpriced. 55 for a pint. Went through 1,000 very quickly for the three of us.
