		10/05/07 - WEMBLEY ARENA, LONDON Review by Steven Stanley: After a great gig in Birmingham the night before everyone was looking forward to these Wembley shows including me. This was his 25th headline show at Wembley Arena, although in actual fact by Friday's gig he would have done 36 shows at the Wembley complex (including the stadium, special events and support slots) in total. I got there just in time to see Bryan enter 'The Hall Of Fame' in between the Stadium and Arena with his handprints in cement. Not only was this his 25th headline Arena show... it also marked 20 years of shows there for him, so quite a landmark all round. I had chose to sit at this gig with Nat, Mave and Karen as something different to standing. It turned out we had a great view right next to the stage and went down and stood next to a barrier where we all had a great time. It was great to see the audience from above all clapping at once and with arms in the air for 'Cloud #9' etc... nice to see it from the seats on occasion. One thing I did notice was that the b-stage sounded a hell of a lot better from up here! We used 'Everything I Do' as a great excuse to go to the bar as well!
