Janet Gardner - 28 May 2018 - Camden Underworld, London

Bank holiday Monday and there was a very small turnout for Janet Gardner's final date on her solo UK tour. Those not familiar with the name is the lead singer of Vixen. I must admit the main reason for attending was to hear some old Vixen songs as I was not familiar with any of her solo material. Sadly we only got 1 Vixen song as an encore number. I soon found out that London was the only gig she played "Edge of a Broken Heart". We were already to go when the house lights went down and the into tape started. as soon as it finished...nothing. the bass guitar wasn't working! what an anti-climax! What seemed like ages we finally kicked off with "If You Want Me". Backed by here husband on guitar we got 12 songs including the aforementioned Vixen songs and 2 cover versions - "Fu*k You" by CeeLo Green (which was an interesting choice but went down well) and "Love Gun" by KISS (sung by the bass player - why?) Despite my comments I enjoyed this gig. Janet said that she was planning to return later on in the year. If so I hope with more Vixen songs in her setlist, or even with Vixen.
