Yes, hopefully The Donkey will stay a music venue, we'll wait and see.

Wish my todger was long enough to play air guitar with 😂

Warren, how could I forget

When Zoe and her kilt-wearing, bushy beard toting partner ran the Donkey it had more atmosphere. He (the bearded one) used to run the door and was fond of kissing everyone 😊

I'm told The Donkey is to close (again) soon, which is a shame if it happens. Always liked gigging there.

That's a cracking gig report 'drunken vomity punchee'..…...epic 👍

Gig last Saturday at a festival called Nashville Days in Swinford, Leicester. Headliner was Luke Combs UK Tribute and we were one of the support bands. Decent crowd, it was a ticketed event and had sold out so they were all up for it. The sound on stage was a bit meh as we were in a marquee but as backline was provided it was an easy set up. My Mike Lull P4 did the business as usual, not sure what make the rig was but it sounded ok. Some ladies did some line dancing while we were playing which added to the atmosphere, particularly when we played one of our own songs called 'End of the Line'

Saturday saw us playing at a wedding, the bride is our drummer George's cousin so it was a pro bono job. It went well and we had lots of compliments. We had Danny, George's Uncle sit in on vocals for a song called 'I loved her first' which is a family favourite and was performed in memory of the brides' father. There were a few moist eyes after that one and we were chuffed we didn't farp it up. The nosh was decent.... especially the corned beef salad sarnies, which me and our 6-string maestro Phil (yep, 2 Phil's in our band) wolfed down with aplomb post performance. Sunday we were at O'Neill's in Leicester to a middle-sized crowd who seemed to enjoy our sets. Here's the pre-gig pic with the atmospheric images on the TVs... Used my go to gig set up of Mike Lull P4 through the Handbox R400 with matching cab. 2 gigs this coming weekend too, so no rest for this weekend warrior

Lovin those hats....keepin it Country

Rory Gallagher's Deuce album, his second. A little gem.

Should be Tea Time Dunk Club 😂

Bought the Gallien Krueger cab that was the extension cab for the MB150s above. Thanks Sean, nice to meet you 😊

That IS crowded

I love those gigs where the punters are right on top of you, really special

Clever!

That's way cool

Good to know I'm lucky enough/old enough to have seen Rory 3 times, 1st was in 74 when I'd just turned 15.

I must get to see these guys

He is a bit, but an amazing guitarist.....and very good stage banter. Oh farp....gigger not ginger
