Silvia Bluejay Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I'm planning to be there both days, probably late afternoon to evening. Anyone else going? [url="http://www.ealingsummerfestivals.com/events/blues-festival/"]http://www.ealingsummerfestivals.com/events/blues-festival/[/url] There will be at least a couple of bands with BCers on bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricOnBass Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Drat! Wish it had been a week later. I'm in that part of the world the following weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmchich Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Hmm, £5 a day? It's a possibility. Smuggle in a crate of homebrew and make a day of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted July 17, 2013 Author Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'll be getting the £8 two-day ticket because there are several bands I'd like to see, and they're spread throughout the weekend. I will be wearing my BC lanyard, so if anyone I don't yet know in person spots me, feel free to stop me for a chat! I'll bring a few spare lanyards for those who don't have one yet and would like other BCers in the crowd to see them and say hi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvia Bluejay Posted July 20, 2013 Author Share Posted July 20, 2013 Just back from the first day. I saw BCer BigJim play with Robert Hokum's Blues Band and with the Devil Drives, and BCer PaulKing with his Jump 66. I took the usual inordinate amount of footage and photos. I think I better write a blog rather than flood this thread with images and video. Watch this space More tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulKing Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Wonderful to see BCers there, fine time had by all and some fine blues bass to get the punters heads nodding. Good times! Ta for the lanyard bluejay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wateroftyne Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Clad you caught a bit of them... Constance is a GREAT player. Lovely people, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteb Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Did you manage to catch Northsyde?? Terrific band with an excellent female vocalist and a really cool bass player too (left handed but plays a 5 string with the strings upside down)! Really nice people as well...
