Jan Akkerman has been dong a brief "My Focus" tour of the UK and I was able to see him last night in Shepherd's Bush last night with a ministerial friend of mine. This was the final concert of the tour. Mr Akkerman was on fine form and played mostly Focus numbers incuding Answers Questions Questions ANswers, which he co-wrote with the late Bert Ruiter. I particularly enjoyed Anonymus (with a bit of Yankee Doodle thrown in for good measure). The band were as tight as ever and we enjoyed brief solos from the bass and drums. Jan himself seemed happy enough most of the time. Bush Hall was full and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. It's weird to think that much of this music was wrtten fifty years ago or so.
