I'm going to see her perform in London at the Royal Festival Hall in a couple of weeks and have got great seats - third row from the stage - and I can't wait. From watching her concert DVDs and live performences on TV at places like Glastonbury, she seems to be really good at interacting with her audiences and comes across as really nice and warm.

Just wondering if anyone here has seen her live and what you thought?

She's always come across as really classy and softly spoken. I can't wait to see her - so excited!

I'm third row from the stage so hopefully it will still feel quite intimate. I was front row for Leona Lewis' Labyrinth tour, front row for John Barrowman on his tour last year, and only about half a dozen from from the front of the stage in the standing area for Madonna's Sticky & Sweet tour a couple of years ago and all experiences were so amazing. I don't think I could ever return to sitting near the back now like I used to. You really don't get much of an experience if you're further away.

I agree regarding your last comment. I may actually experience Leona's tour on dvd more then i did being there. I had such shit seats which were out of my control.

Yeah, these days I'd just rather stay at home, save a bit of money on travel and expenses and wait for the DVD rather than be stuck in bad seats. It's just annoying that quite a lot of concerts still don't get proper DVD releases (Spice Girls reunion, Britney's Circus tour...).

The show was fantastic! Corinne was born to be a live performer and her band are absolutely incredible. The atompshere was awesome and she was great with the audience. I wish the show was getting a DVD release because it was a really great concert. I'm really glad I got to see her and had such a good seat.

Yep saw her at Southampton Guildhall and although I find some of her album tracks a tad on the sleepy side, I loved her live set- energetic and soulful. I'd see her again in a heartbeat.

I saw her at Somerset house in the summer. She puts on a great show, is very lovely and interacts with the audience nicely.
