At the Ross
International Festival
Ross On Wye, Herefordshire
Sunday 27 August 2001
On Sunday 27 August 2001, I had a opportunity of seeing pop group, Atomic Kitten in Concert at the Ross International Festival, Ross on Wye, Herefordshire, UK. It was reschedule from the previous Wednesday, due to they re-shooting "Whole Again" in the US again.
Very surprising that a big act, namely Atomic Kitten, decided to play at Ross. I only live 12 miles away from Ross!
A1, The Honeyz and Dane Bowers also played at Ross on the Wednesday before the concert.
Ross International Festival. The Venue is in a field
next to the River Wye!
Unlike other concert I visited, this one was in a tent in a middle of a field next to the River Wye. It was a nice day and everyone was enjoying themselves. The concert started later than planned, due to Atomic Kitten rehearsing. Estimated number of ticket holders were around 1,200.
As I was in the fourth row, I had a very good view. You can tell with the photos below. Supporting acts were "Times Four" and "Point Blank"
Around 3:15pm, the show started with "Times Four". Then the next supporting act, "Point Blank" came on to sing some of their songs. Both groups used a backing track for their music. Atomic Kitten came on at 4pm and sang many of their songs, including "Right Now", the 2 number 1 hits, "Eternal Flame" and "Whole Again". Atomic Kitten had a real band and not used a backing track. Jenny forgotten some of the words as she was the newest member of the band, since Kerry Left earlier in the year. They finished around 4:40pm. Outside, there was a queue forming for autographs. 30 minutes later, Atomic Kitten left the venue in a car without signing autographs. Oh well, it was a great day, and nothing like the NEC Arena in Birmingham.
