Phil plays Jackson in Pump Boys and Dinettes and is brilliant.  He sings loads and plays many instruments including some I had never seen him play before.

In a show that lasts just an hour and half he is never off stage and this is just such a treat fro fans of Phil.

Mona is Phil�s flagship song, as Jackson sings about the Woolworths Checkout girl he loves.  I would have to say that to me it�s a bit like Cookie�s solo was in Planet and yes he does play a guitar solo which whilst not as long as the one he did in Planet, it is just as good.

Pump Boys and Dinettes has no story to speak of, it�s just a collection of songs joined together by stories about their lives told by the characters and in many respects it�s an odd one.

Hearing Phil sing a lot is a delight and I had forgotten what a great voice he has, as the last time he had really sung that much was Keep on Running.

As I mentioned Phil plays many instruments and these are guitar � electric and acoustic, bass, harmonica, keyboards, accordion and some stringed thing he played on his lap � sorry don�t know the name.

If you�re a fan of Phil�s then you should go and see this and don�t worry if you think that there is a lot of Country and Western music because it is mixed with rock n roll.

A great night out with loads of laughs.
