A bit of a1 nostalgia

Ben about recent and upcoming Norway gigs with A1

A1 recently did their first gig in seven years at "Allsang paa grensen" in Norway. After the great response and the boys enjoying being back together on stage so much it's now been announced that A1 will do 4 10 year celebration gigs in Oslo December 9.-12. this year.

There's been great feedback and tickets are selling fast for the gigs. The boys will be performing some of their A1 material, some solo stuff and hopefully some new tracks! There has been a lot of questions on Facebook and Twitter about why the gigs are in Norway, if there will be any UK gigs and if they will be performing with or without Paul. In this video Ben talks about his Norway trip and the planned December trips and answers those questions for you.

For more details on how you can book your tickets please go to the official event invite, look forward to seeing you there!

Ben about having his eyes lasered

Just had my eyes lasered last week and feeling great. No more contact lenses!

I was quite nervous before the surgery, but it was done so quickly and pretty much painless which was such a relief. I literally went into surgery and was home a couple of hours later. My sight is improved enormously, better than 20/20 I’ve been told. It’s great not to have to think about my contact lenses first thing in the morning and last thing at night. I can just see clearly and am now free of all that hassle.

I’d definitely recommend it to anyone considering it. Wish I had done it sooner! Hope you are all well.
