Michael Bublé ends Durham show with joke about crowd's 'drinking problem'

Just Haven't Met You Yet singer Michael Bublé was on fine form at Durham Riverside this week where local fans finally got to see the show they had been promised in 2020.

The current An Evening with Michael Bublé tour is four-time Grammy Award winner's first series of open-air concerts and the Chester-le-Street cricket ground has been on its list ever since his hit 2019 show at Newcastle's Utilita Arena. Having been postponed due to the pandemic, it got under way on Wednesday night with the star clearly keen to make up for lost time.

Referencing everything from the weather to rising oil prices hitting our pockets, he packed in a wide range of covers alongside his own work, all peppered with jokes along the way. His wife and family too were there to enjoy a performance that was as polished and professional as ever but full of fun.
