Reviewer: CosmicFighter

The legendary ‘Boardwalk’, oh yes, but Rolan and the boys were well worthy!
This is a great venue, superb sound system and excellent atmosphere.
The crowd was a mixture of young and old, many Marc Bolan t-shirts on show.
I was talking to Marc’s fans afterwards, all of them had good words for Rolan, they loved his music; there was a feeling that Rolan should be hitting the big time soon! So he should, Rolan’s songs are well crafted and they are already classics to his fans. Time allowed Rolan to encore with ‘20th century boy’ once again, this got Marc’s fans up and dancing again! Rolan had already been off stage and down to the floor with them earlier. He really does know his fans and performs with great ease; Rolan has a rapport with the crowd just like his dad had, pure magic!
There is another Boardwalk report on the OMBFC site, please give them a visit.
