Stop! In the name of love - The Supremes

I had a funny sort of in between experience when seeing Bela Fleck and the Flecktones. I’ve seen fabulous musicians whose virtuosity stood out of reach and left me feeling a little inadequate. B F and the Flecktones where just so extraterrestrial in their abilities that I simply enjoyed it unshackled from any sense of inadequacy. It was other worldly.

Good luck and thanks for what you do in your day job. It’s been alluded to here already, but to reiterate.. Don’t sweat it over mistakes. My overwhelming memory of my first gig, some 35 years ago was the shock and relief at how much the audience (and even fellow band members) didn’t even notice my gaffs. Clearly that’s not your goal, but it might go some way to taking the pressure off, at least until you have your first few gigs under your belt. Have fun and be sure to tell us all how it went 👍

You are an orangutan and I claim my 5 pounds

Given the average age of our membership, I am not sure that that is so 😎

Photos or it never happened

And the weight?

I saw what you did there Ped...

Vangelis

B is for Beatles

Much as I hate The Voice, this performance is just so cool I wanted to share it...

Here Comes the Judge - Pigmeat Markham

Jake Thackray used to do some cracking stuff as well.

Me too. Not one of his comic songs, but I always loved this one…

Thanks, I will check him out. Sam Wilkes, probably best known for his appearances with Knower, also shows up on a bunch of stuff.
