No, in 2010 I asked him directly how his voice was (after he'd had to cancel a couple of gigs back home) and how he looked after it...

"I don't drink on tour anymore".

So not assuming anything, just wondering if that stays true after a 3rd test series winning effort by his beloved lions ;-)

Incredible photos!

It's actually the reason I didn't take a shooting pass on offer in Melbourne, couldn't bear having to leave, cloak camera and then come back in and stand further back.

So just took the pocket thingy instead.

here's a few from sydney.

Thanks so much the pictures are amazing.

I seriously can't imagine James not having a drink or two to celebrate the Lions win, they must have loved it.

Probably why they played the last gig before the last game. Win our lose, they'll want a drink.

And I don't know why he's so worried about his voice with all hits on the set list, pretty much the entire crowd know all the words...

Yeh and I bet Nicky fell off the waggon too, after that amazing result you would celebrate in style. They must have been delighted for Jamie Roberts too, what a try!

Thanks mate. I'd have given my left nut for a photo pass

Awesome pics there. What camera did you use? I quite fancy getting something to take to gigs but i know nothing nothing about compacts or mirrorless cameras.

Don't know which camera he uses but I have this one and it's quite nice and small. This is the 3 version I think there are two newer ones now.

Let's hope he delivers on this. 2017 is when the Lions are due here so it's not that far away. Really.
