Harry keeps London swinging as William makes waves in CornwallWith big brother William training with the Royal Navy in Cornwall, Prince Harry's been keeping London warm for him until his return. On May 31st Harry was spotted with a group of friends cheering on the London Wasps rugby team as they played against the Leicester Tigers. Perhaps some of the luck Harry brought to the 2003 Rugby World Cup rubbed off as the Wasps won the match 26 to 16 to become Champions of England. Later that night the Prince surprised (and brought some much needed publicity to) struggling 80s band 'Daniel Takes a Train' who are hoping to make a comeback by wining much coveted set playing alongside Eric Clapton at the Hard Rock Calling concert later this month. The band, which formed over 20 years ago, was finishing up a poorly attended gig at the Troubadour club when Harry unexpectedly dropped by. Said lead vocalist Paul Barker, "We did a double take and pinched ourselves when we saw Harry. Then, appreciating that Emma is a bit better on the eye, we sent her over to speak to him. It was the surprise of our lives." Backup vocalist Emma Gray was charmed by the prince who wished the band luck and posed for pictures with them after accepting a complimentary band t-shirt, which Emma Gray joked he could use to sleep in or dust the TV with. Said Emma Gray, "He was so sweet and lovely. It was magical. Now we've got the royal seal of approval, we're one step closer to winning the competition." And in the wee hours of Wednesday morning Harry was photographed leaving Annabel's. It's believed Harry must have been there for a special event as, forgoing his usual clubbing outfit of jeans and cap, the prince looked very much the gentlemen in a tuxedo.
