Guest NicolaJayne Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Oh I went there last month when we were in Benidorm, what a shame Gareth wasn't there then. Benidorm Palace is an amazing venue and always a great show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eternal Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Here is a reminder of the venue Elaine (how interesting you were only there recently) https://www.benidormpalace.com/en/events/ This is the show where Gareth was headlining by the looks of it https://www.benidormpalace.com/en/eventos/palace-variety-show-2016/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NicolaJayne Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Thank you for the info on the show Chris, it is a beautiful huge theatre and the show is normally 30 e, no matter where you sit, it's a very lavish variety and laser show that changes every year.we also have been there for the last 3 or 4 years as if you stay at a servico hotel it is free every Wednesday night, which is because it is owned by Servico hotels and there are about 4 or 5 of their hotels in Benidorm, This show must just have been a one off.but ironicallyy we are usually there at this time, only reason we can't go this year and went earlier is because we mind our grandson in term time.

eternal Posted September 23, 2016 Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 How brilliant that we have someone who has actually visited the venue in Spain. Thanks for telling us a bit of it's history Elaine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorksheather Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 This is a nice little video advertising the show . It says all profits were going to Help The Heroes& Elche Children's Home . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindajan Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 Thought this might have been a charity gig which would have been why Gareth would have wanted to appear to support the charity. I had thought it unlikely that he would fly out to Spain on his one day off between venues unless it was for a good cause. Whether his illness this week, causing his absence from Footloose for two days, was because of this or would have happened anyway, we will never know. I understand how disappointing it is when he has to take time off (I missed the show in Birmingham because Gareth wasn't appearing - but at least I knew in advance). However it is unrealistic to expect any member of the cast to get through an extended run without falling ill at some stage. I've seen the show five times now and only once or twice (in Bradford and possibly Bristol) were there no understudies performing. I just hope that Gareth's illness this week was not because of his vocal cords this time. Thanks for finding the video advertising the show, Heather.

maria_1981 Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 I think the Spain thing was for a charity it was a variety show which involved the Grumbleweeds which I can understand it being hard to turn down something like that, i heard somewhere on Twitter he had/has a cold.

eternal Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Following the death of George Micheal on Christmas Day Gareth tweeted this: Such a sad day. We lose another legend. I met George Michael a couple of times. He was such a lovely man, and what a talent. Rest in peace x This was picked up by the Sun newspaper too as one of the tributes A reminder of Gareth singing George Micheal  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValR Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 Thanks Chris, enjoyed watching that. I've always thought that both Gareth and George had such lovely diction and pure voices you can hear every word of their songs unlike a lot of artists., Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternal Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 This is a bit of a surprise as would have thought Gareth already have enough to work on without anything else. I was immediately thinking another product. the'Oh it's gonna be fun' makes me think it is Panto related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternal Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 It would be lovely to think it is but not sure Gareth is high profile enough. However the suggestion has us hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mariaw81 Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 I prefer the previous one too, the current one is sexy and all, perfect body yes, but like Sarahjane was saying to me the other night, it's his gorgeous face that draws me in, Â no one has eyes as stunning as his for starters.
