I saw Alfie in the concert twice and he was outstanding- and I can assure you I'm a 'discerning fan'I think it stems from the Les Mis concert run, when Cameron Mackintosh gave the bulk of the nights to Alfie Boe, but JOJ only had two nights a week or so. The coach parties and grannies all went on the Alfie Boe nights, the discerning Les Mis fans went on the John Owen Jones nights. There was some feeling that the far better singer, but less well known to TV audiences etc, had been stiffed by Mackintosh.
