THERE was no holding back for Mick Hucknall as he brought his vocal talents to the IndigO2 last night.

The Simply Red singer showcased his "Tribute to Bobby Bland" album to an appreciative audience and they were not disappointed as Hucknall, in fine voice, ripped through Bland's back catalogue.

Rousing versions of "I Wouldn't Treat a Dog", "I Pity the Fool" and "Cry, Cry, Cry" had the audience on its feet well before the end of a rather short set.

THERE was no “holding back the tees� when The O2 hosted a golf event with a difference this week.

Top golfer Justin Rose was joined by Simply Red singer Mick Hucknall on top of the building on Monday morning to hit a few balls officially to launch the BMW PGA Championship.

Rose, Europe’s number one player, and Hucknall both hit their shots off a specially built tee on The O2 roof, 50 metres above the River Thames. For Rose it was a departure from the normal surfaces he enjoys at places like St Andrews and Augusta.
