Thanks for posting the links, Rattie.

See you on tour in Buxton.

Oh no, the thread has been slightly neglected!

I am still appreciating Rhydian and will be going to the show at Llanduddno on 9th March. Really looking forward to it!!!

I left it too late to book Rocky Horror tickets, there was only one date my friend and I could make and the seats left were all apart, it's not the sort of show where you'd want to sit by someone you don't know! If more dates get added in the North West we'll make a supreme effort.

The show was absolutely amazing, a good mixture of music and the Tenors of Rock were a good choice of support act - my favourite yet!

Yay! Glad you enjoyed the concert, Dolph.

I'll be attending the Buxton one in April.

I've signed up for the newsletter on the new Official site and have received the one with the link to the demo he's recorded. Pleasantly surprised as it's not usually my type of song. The female backing vocal works well and Rhyd's voice is lovely on it.

Hey,
I was thinking of going to see War of the Worlds - Alive on Stage! soon as my local venue is showing a cinema version of the new Jeff Wayne version. Gutted it isnt a performance with Rhyd as the Parson, but oh well Its the new version with Liam Neeson and Gary Barlow I think.
Would like to have seen the one with Justin Heyward though, I mean I cant imagine Gary Barlow singing Forever Autumn can you?

I'm working on my singing and breathing a bit more and its easier now! Still practising!

Yo Grim!

I enjoyed War of The Worlds with Rhydian as Parson Nathaniel and Justin Hayward singing 'Forever Autumn'. It's a gorgeous song.

Off to see Rhydian tomorrow at Buxton along with some of the RATs. . I'll try and report back after the concert if poss. Looking forward to seeing what he performs and catching up with my buddies again in the flesh.

Laters!

I suspect he's not drinking from that bottle (might even be empty). He doesn't drink as such but I think he may have the odd glass of wine on occasion. He had a cup of tea at hand whilst he was on stage, ha ha!

He was fabulous Grim at the concert I attended on Sunday.

The crowd went wild on his 'The Impossible Dream' and 'Music of the Night'.

He even made 'Lady in Red' sound good and I don't even like the damn song!

Hi Patti-Ann

I wouldn't be surprised if he was to do one in the future. His voice sits well with a lot of musical theatre stuff from what I've heard him singing live in concert.

If he does I hope it's advertised properly - during X Factor would be ideal

I wish they would offer him a guest appearance too

Ooops we fell off the front page.............can't have that!

Rhyd had a great tour; five of the 11 dates were sell outs and the rest only had seats at the back left. Combining it with the Rocky Horror Show meant he was running aroud like a blue a***ed fly!

Then he went off on a holiday with his Mum to the Holy Land to recover

He's out in France at the mo but is coming back soon as he's got more Rocky dates and four gigs in about 5 weeks.

There are a couple of vlogs he's done you might like to see if you haven't already.

In this one he's asking for some song suggestions from his fans:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P56y...-5ytmg&index=2

and in this one he's at the Grand Prix in Monaco, hanging out with Nicole Scherzinger and the like lol. He has some news coming soon about a new album he says.

Great to hear there is another album in the pipeline

I hope it's a Musicals one

In that clip he mentions Bonnie Tyler.... I sincerely hope Rhyd never does Eurovision

The thread needs a little bump

Two musical theatre songs I'd like him to do

Phantom as a duet

Close Every Door from Joseph - that would sound amazing

Hey!
I saw War of the Worlds: Alive on Stage! tonight, it was really good. Would have loved to see Rhydian as the Parson, but Jason Donavan was fab, loved Ricky Wilson as the Artilleryman and Kerry Ellis
The effects worked really well with amazing music Justin Heyward will always be in my mind as the singer (cant get Rhyd singing Forever Autumn out of my head either) though Marti Pellow was good.

Glad you enjoyed the show grim

I actually came on to ask if anyone on here has bought Rhydians album of Welsh songs. I'm thinking of sending for it.

Some of them he's done in English so I know them already

It was great seeing Rhyd as the parson. His wig had a life of its own

Justin Heyward was amazing. We got a smile from him

Glad you enjoyed the show, Grim. 'Forever Autumn' - now there's a lovely song.

I enjoyed seeing this show. Coincidentally, I found out on arriving home that weekend that the man who had given me a recorded tape of the album 'War of The Worlds' years previously; sadly died. RIP Big Harry.

Glad you enjoyed the show grim

Hi Patti-Ann - I didnt purchase the album however I did buy a couple of the tracks. A full album of Welsh music doesn't appeal to me even with Rhyd's lovely voice. I prefer the debut album and the pop one he did called 'Waves'.

If his next album was what I call 'classical with a twist' with better production than the debut, and no munchkins a la 'Somewhere'; we could have a winner.

It was great seeing Rhyd as the parson. His wig had a life of its own

Hi Neelia - that wig should have won best support award. .

Hi everyone,
Interesting link here - it appears we can make "pledges" to get the 5th album released. Does this mean he is self financing it?

So he's no longer with Conehead

I guess he has management, hopefully they would manage some TV promo slots though a TV ad might be too expensive.

It does look like they are trying to raise money through pledging - didn't Ruth Lorenzo do something like that

I wish Rhydian could be signed to the same label that took Joe on board
