Aftershow News: 20th February 2003

BRIT AWARDS at Earls Court , London 20 Feb 2003 . Did not start off too well as the pre show reception tried to charge £10 for a glass of champagne??.The awards were on fron 5.15pm to 7.45 pm .We had great seats behind Gwyneth Paltrow who was wearing a black beenie hat and sitting well away from the Coldplay boys . In the pit it seemed Will Young easily had the most loudest fans of the evening . Tom Jones was the main live act with a 15 mins set and also playing were Pink , David Gray , Justin Timberlake with Kylie Minogue ,Sugarbabes , Ms Dynamite , Avril Lavigne with 25 drummers , Coldplay with lovely green lasers . The main event was in Earls Court 2 and the very lavish free food and free drinks party aftershow was in Earls Court 1 for a 1000 + crowd . It was very good with loads of food like sausage and mash ,roast beef and yorkshire pudding , salmon slices , triffles , an amazing glass wall of strawberries .Gallons of champagne was the main drink consumed on the night . We got into the Virgin V2 VIP room which held about 30 people where we were sitting next to Tom Jones , Liberty X , Richard Branson , Cat Deeley ,Rob Drydon . We went on the dodgems and had a spell in the fun casino area as well .I lost every game ?? The party lasted to after midnight then we headed for a crew party nearby at a Earls Court hotel which lasted until 4am . All in all it was a fantastic event and a great aftershow . Apologies to those that saw the first review of this event which was done while i was p*****.
