Jazzneck Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Good on yer, Bilbo - well done! Be aware though don't be alarmed in that I will likely be there to see Jim Mullen. Hows about trying to get Mick Hanson on as well - that other famed Suffolk jazz boy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo Posted July 23, 2013 Author Share Posted July 23, 2013 I have just finished a six week season playing with John Etheridge, Jim Mullen, Nigel Price, Julian Siegel, Vasilis Xenopoulos, Gareth Lockrane and Martin Speake. Later this year, I get to play with Gilad Atzmon, Tony Kofi, Steve Fishwick, Tim Whitehead, Kate Williams, Pete Whitaker, Christine Tobin, Phil Robson and others 'to be announced'. What a year!!!!
