It was amazing! It was fun all the time, more a show than just a concert. What energy! Loved when he played in middle of the audience, I touched him! My mum called Jamie a rubber ball ^^

Oh gosh! Now that was what I call a great gig! I got all my favourite songs, thanks Jamie, and witnessed some extraordinary drumming. They really are all extremely talented musicians. They started with Wind cryes Mary and played songs from Catching tales, Twentysomething and Pointless nostalgic. After Jamie got the croud singing along as a choir I noticed that even the fourtysomething couple next to me was drumming with their hands to the rhytm. The tickets were a money well spent(I was so happy getting them since I missed the consert in Helsinki last summer). Now I'm going to turn upp the volume and share my favourite music with my neighbours. Thank you so much Jamie&the band! /helena P.S. When I took the tunnelbana home last night I heard a couple of twentysomething girls talking enthusiastically about the gig and swearing to do anything to get tickets next time Jamie comes to Sweden I just smiled - couldn't agree more.

Simply marvellous. I've never been to a real concert before, and this exceeded all expectations :D I got two tickets for Christmas, and it defently was the best present ever. I loved it when we all got to sing along, and when he played in the middle of the audience...I'm really looking forward to his next gig here in Sweden :D

mm where to start!!? We were a bit late and came to our seats just when Beady Belle started to sing. They were good, I really liked them. And as the time passes I get more and more nervous, I'm thinkin' where's jamie, where is he, when is he coming out? Beate has a beautiful, strong vioce and I just love it! Then! ... the great master band came out and the audience went wild! They started off with doing Wind Cries Mary, really awesome! It's strange how u really know the songs but can't put names on them while u're at the concert haha! Old Devil Mooon is one of my favouite songs that Jamie made and it's no less a favourite now! Then another favourite, Get Your Way, with that lovely beatbox thingie!! I just love that sounds, I was rockin' on the chair haha, I just couldn't sit still during the entire gig, so u could see I'm very tired now lol. What a difference a day made is always a good song to relax too. Oh God with Beate was also eryyyyy good!!! What a voice she has! I thought that they were gonna do Fascinating Rythm here but they didn't well it wasn't a bad song they replaced it with either! It was def It Aion't Necessarily So. Def on of the best song for me at this gig! Seriously beatiful. I was soo chocked to hear that one coming lol. IANS turned in to an awesome version of Frontin' and everyone seemed to enjoy it as much as I did! Followed by Twentysomething, who is never a bad song to play at Jamie's gigs. Always love the running part!!! Then my absolute favourite came, These are the Days, with a part of Golddigger before! Lovely!! Then after that he started to talk about the london weather and called it the London Shitty, as u may know by now. But For Now is my best friends favourite song and was glad to hear it! She seriously melted! The best ballad ever made by jamie. THEN! My ABSOLUTE favourite part, High and Dry with the audience. That's a must at every jamie concert. I did a vid of it but u can here me sing.. and remember.. I was shaky.. I had sung alot, it isn't pretty I must say. Maybe it's cause I've never heard myself singin' before. Maybe I'll put it up here.. hehe ... I get a kick out of you was superawesome followed by laughs from the crowd when Seb did his master solo! That guy is like the best drummer in the world! Atleast in my oppinion. Nature Boy was up next and It sounded great.. I couldn't even see their heads! lol but atleast I could hear next stop, all at sea. Always a favourite! And then last but not least; I couldv'e danced all night... I seriously could if I my body allowed me too I was right at the stage .,.. in the veryy front of it! And it was then I Got some supergood photos A memory for life, truly! /millan, the photographer ;), in sweden

Wow! That was the best consert I've seen in my entire life! It was well worth the 10 hours I spent on a bus, to see my big (but yet small) music hero! My favourite part was the solo Jamie had just before he started on "high and dry", the most beautiful piano playing I've ever heard! Couldn't stop smiling for the entire show and went home with a sore jaw and a happy heart! All I can say is: Thank you jamie! I hope you'll come back to us soon! Ps: your band is awesome!

This consert.. I would just sound stupid to describe the feeling with words, but damn Jamie, what a show. In 3 or 4 years this will sadly be impossible to do again since the croud won't let you sing as they did now at annexet, if you‰re gonna sing in the middle of the "very very big big room". But Jamie, I waited for you to bring me backstage with you and your band after the show. Never saw you though, next time maybe? ;D I guess i got to be famous first, i‰ll try to fix that. Anyway,what a difference that day made! Good luck in the USA, hope to see you soon. / H

thank you thank you thank you!!!!! that's all I can say to Jamie and his wonderful band. I swear this is the best thing that I've ever been doing so far in my life. perhaps, this sounds like a silly teenage thing but I can promise that a lot of the people on the consert felt like me. the age had no sense When the song "Nature Boy" was played in the middle of the audience it was magic! it was like you were sitting by a cosy fireplace. And when we in the end were standing so close to the stage and these wonderful musicians, my night was perfect. the feeling there when they played "All at sea" and "I could have danced all night" was remarkable! you could turn around and smile to anyone. and everybody were singin' along. And jamie looked very delighted with all the youngsters in front of him! =) when I went to bed after the concert I was already longing for the next one! I really hope that it wont take so long until Jamie Cullum whit band get here again. they get more and more popular all the time but I really wanna see another concert soon =)THANK YOU to the band again! you rock!!! =D

Love was in the air! What more can I say... I sang along with every word and so did everybody else aswell. With this great smile stuck at my face I enjoyed Jamies music like never before. (And I've been a fan fore many years now...) Missed the show in Finland last summer but I will not miss the next time he's in Scandinavia. I wish you, Jamie, the best of luck on the US-tour commin' up. Hope you come back to us soon! Love/ One of those sweet swedish girls you love so much =)

Truly amasing. . thanks to all members in the band for more than a unforgetteble night! ! Can't believe that I sat there on the floor in the middle of the hall right next to Jamie and friends. . And they made it all perfect by playing "All at Sea" in the end. . Everything was so magical! If I'm not there at their next gig in Sweden I'm probably death sick ;]

Jamie Cullum, I just don't get how someone can make so good music! And the way he does covers of famous songs so much better than the original, it's just amazing! I really hope that he'll be back soon. His and the band's version of "There was a boy" was just so good that I almost cried. It was just GREAT!

There are no words to discribe how wonderful your consert was! Me and my friends were so happy after the show. We did¥nt know what to say, we just had a big smile on our faces. And we already got plans to go to London and see you sometime! I¥m a student at a musicschool in the north of sweden and my jazz-teacher were so jellous when I said I was going to stockholm to see you! I get goosebumps everytime i think about your consert. And photograph, oh my good! wonderful, i don¥t know what else to say. Thank you for sharing all your music with us, i love you. And I can¥t wait to see you again. Love/ Johanna

You made my day, in the cold winters day. Even though I had a really bad flue, I had the time of my life, I could have danced all night, with you Jamie, and your extraordinary and woundeful "band". Thank you for your music, and a memory for, and of life. I hope to see you back in Stockholm, really soon! Love (you are great!)

The second time I saw Jamie. What can I say? Unbelievable! The gig was amazing. Jamie and his band played with full energy. My gosh! it was great! Jamie has become much more selfconfident and daring musician, performer and entertainer. :) Thanks for singing "It ain't necessarily so"! I nearly got a heart attack when I realized it... Thank you! This whole gig was just perfect! Thank you so much!

a year ago since the concert today, and i'm feeling a bit nostalgic! (a pointless nostalgic, that's me..! :) listening to all of jamie's records, and looking at all of the pictures i took. just wanted to say thank you, i guess! :) because, even if it sounds silly and stupid, that evening was the best of my entire life, i could have danced all night.. so thank you, jamie and the rest of your magnificent band! please come back, soon, soon, soon! all my love / rebecca
