Fans of Gerry Cinnamon would have had their heads in their hands when they read the weather forecast this morning. After months of build up and anticipation for his huge gig at Swansea’s Singleton Park, it’s fair to say forecasts of thunderstorms and heavy showers were less than ideal.
But thankfully the Scottish singer songwriter had nothing to worry about. He was given a typical Welsh welcome with his legion of Welsh fans jockeying for position as he delivered an unforgettable day for all those who were there to witness it.
Taking to the stage to kick off the gig wearing his trademark flat cap and overcoat, he played the brilliant Lulluby and told the crowd: “What a time to be alive” following it up with Sometimes. He said: “Swansea man. Beautiful. Beautiful.” Confetti covered the crowd and it was met with a loud ovation, and added to the spirit of the occasion. His fans chanted his name to the tune of Baby Give It Up.
