Just posting this here, don't think it has been yet - the Daily Fail's actually got something right for once, and given the right person some publicity!

Not quite apprecaition but an interesting thread on the main page considering the grief Leon has endured on DS
"in defense of all Contestants against the low life called Haters"

Happy January to Leon and his many admirers

Seen him tonight supporting Lawson at King Tuts.

I was actually surprised to find out who it was! I knew people were shouting 'Leon' but he looks so different than the last time I seen a photo of him so it didn't click at all.

He was pretty good I have to say.

Hi guys

Not doing a review as such as the set was only 30 minutes long, although Leon managed to pack 6 full songs in plus a couple of shorties!

Leon seemed relaxed and comfortable from the word go....he was in Glasgow after all! I'm sure ljfan and Chopsticks, who were also there, will agree when I say that Leon gave a very natural, raw and honest performance. Vocally he was brilliant (I just adore that voice) although I thought he sounded like he was still getting over a cold when he was talking.

There is absolutely nothing fake about how Leon feels about his music and he always manages to express it in a way that reaches out to everyone. He was in good spirits and did plenty of small talk and audience participation. The place was heaving and even if some may have been there just to see Lawson, there was lots of support from the large number of LJ fans there and non fans alike waiting for Lawson to come on.

Leon came down later to see everyone who was waiting. He made sure he had a chat with everyone and did pics and autographs for all who wanted them. He was a mix of charming, funny and cheeky and made everyone's night complete. All in all it was a great gig and everyone including Leon had a fab time.

btw Lawson were good but Carrie Mac was pretty darn good for a support act. She had a killer set of pipes and made it worth going early just to see her.
