I think we've all had gigs like that unfortunately Blue.
-
First gig of 2023 saw us return to a localish social club last night. Was a fairly good turn out and we seemed to go down well. We are back there again in September.
-
Nice one! You competing with Martin Turner on the trouser front?
-
Sad loss. Only saw him once with Clapton. He certainly blew Clapton away that night.
-
Our drummer is trying to find an app on his phone to work his kit remotely!
-
Played a local social club which was OK but quite a poor turnout. We played well enough and the few that were there seemed to enjoy it. Onwards to 2023!
-
My regret is never catching Rory Gallagher.
-
Love some Alex Harvey. Saw SAHB back in the 70s in Nottingham.
-
Played a social club last night that we last played before lockdown. Not a bad size crowd and we played well with a dep drummer (our usual drummers brother).
-
Yes, I heard he had retired over there. I met Martin a couple of times also.
-
I saw Stray a few years ago supporting Martin Turner's Wishbone Ash at Marshalls in Bletchley. That was when your predecessor Stu (who I knew vaguely through a mutual musician friend) was playing bass.

Sky Arts and other music related programmes

Watched an Arena documentary on BBC4 last night about Chrissie Hynde. I guess it was a repeat but not certain Although I am not particularly a fan I found it very interesting and well worth a watch. -
I watched most of it, missed the start, but really enjoyed it. A fitting tribute to Taylor.
-
Pub gig last night where we had played earlier this year. Only a small audience but were appreciative so not a bad night overall.
-
Played a set at The Woburn Sands Festival Saturday evening. First time there. A good crowd and quite a few dancers during our set.
-
Played to a very busy local beer festival yesterday.
-
A few classic Lindisfarne numbers in that set!
-
New venue for us last night and I understand first band in the pub since new landlady a few months ago. Was a good crowd, mainly down to our vocalist being local and she had invited most of them. Landlady was very happy so should hopefully be getting a re-booking soon.
-
We had the same issues on Saturday around the football although we were advised beforehand that it would be a late start. Started about 10.30pm and played through to just after midnight in the end. Was actually still a good crowd in the club and were up for a good time.
-
Our second post Covid lockdown gig last night. Full pub and lively bunch, had a good night all round.
-
Rock 'n' Roll/Rockabilly band mid seventies.
-
Be aware if playing a pub gig there will always be a group of punters stood blocking the doorway of the almost empty pub when you are trying to load up.
-
Yours truly with the pint glass in mid to late 70's. My brother with the guitar.
-
First full gig last night since lockdown. We had to cancel one in March due to a band member getting Covid. Went really well, we are already booked to return in September but landlord tried to fit us in for another but we didn't have any mutually acceptable dates unfortunately.
-
Shocked and saddened when I heard the news earlier. RIP Taylor.
