Since hearing the announcement of a Ultimate Tour I had to go and see Claire, Lee, Lisa, H and Faye aka STEPS! again as they were my favourite group while growing up and still are my favourite group.
My friend and I went to see them and boy was I not disappointed an excellent use of computer design and loved the opening with the group coming up within their tubes. Excellent opening of Here and Now and You'll Be Sorry with the lightup staircase.
With the group belting out the classics such as Better Best Forgotten, Loves Got a Hold on My Heart and Last Thing on My Mind, which was a fun sequence in which had great connection with the audience and group alike. I enjoyed every minute as I got to learn some new moves and loved their interpretation of Judas with Better The Devil You Know.
Their solos were amazing from Lee's funky devil number with Moves Like Jagger/S+M, Faye's musical rendition of One Night Only and loved her shoe!!!, H's energising and bubbly Don't Stop Beliving led to Lisa's mash up of Beautiful People/Lately and Heaven and finally Claire's emotional performance of I Surrender which was breathtaking.
Vocally the group were brilliant live throughout the show and loved the simplicity they brought to the stage and interaction with the audience was fantastic and of course they saved the best song till last with Tragedy in which the whole Odyssey Arena was rocking to that song as well as the rest.
This show was by far Steps best show to date, they are brilliant live as always and a joy to watch, anyone who has yet to see them...Your in for a fabulous and colourful show.
Absolutey amazing and WELCOME BACK STEPS!!!
