Jamie Webster hot footed it from the famous venue to do his set on the last night of Forest Live where concert goers also got to see scorching sets from Razorlight and headliners James.

The unique venue, set in the beautiful Cannock Chase surroundings, had already seen Sting perform on Friday night, Snow Patrol on Thursday and Nile Rodgers on the Wednesday.

But weekend music fans lapped up the evening sun and the hits from Razorlight and James, the Manchester band's lead singer and co-founder Tim Booth, going walkabout, much to the delight of the crowd.

It was a fitting way to end the concert series, which will celebrate it's 20th anniversary next year of bringing top quality music acts to Cannock Chase.
