| Do yourself a big favour and make a point of seeing Robert there, as he always enjoys performing there and has done many dynamite shows there over the years. Thanks to the nice intimate surroundings, the shows always have a great loose feel about them, and Robert usually has plenty of opportunity to talk to fans, autograph albums, etc. So see you at the Turning Point on February 14th, to celebrate this valentine's day with Robert & band!
