The Eurovision competition is coming to Liverpool.
ABBA were Eurovision song contest winners in 1974 and they got Nul points for Waterloo from the British judges, yet the British people were the first audiences to embrace them after the won.
They went on to become the most famous winners ever.
Together, the awesome foursome have a net worth of over £1 billion.
They have sold over 400 million albums - just behind the Beatles.
I am an ABBA fan, and I love their music.
I told you back in February that I went to the Mamma Mia Party in London, which was a wonderful experience.
You entered, and left your worries behind you.
You became part of that fabulous film, with great food.
When I heard that ABBA were doing a concert together, I was ecstatic.
When I was told that it was a virtual concept, I will admit I was sceptical.
It was going to depict the group as they were in 1977.
The event was at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park - a purpose built venue, called the ABBA arena.
Word started to get out that it was spectacular.
Shame on me for doubting.
This mega group would never put anything out that was second-rate.
It’s reputed to be the most expensive live music experience in history, with a budget over £150 million.
I arrived, and could not believe how many people were dressed for the occasion, in costumes.
We got tickets for the dance floor, what’s the point of sitting down when they are playing ABBA music?
What happened in front of me I have never seen before, and likely never will again.
It was gripping, outstanding, impressive - just phenomenal.
While we were watching the experience, there was also a ten-piece live band, I would have paid just to see them.
All through the concert I kept pinching myself, as I started to believe it was them in person.
The light show was breathtaking, it was all just a jaw-dropping experience, and a triumph of a production.
