Mr Fudge Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 (edited) Im lucky enough to be supporting The Blockheads next week at The Robin 2 in Wolverhampton. Thursday 8th April. Any BCer's planning to attend? I'll be near the bar enjoying The Blockheads after our support. The beauty is I would have been going to see them anyway. I think it's what's known as a "win win" situation. Edited March 30, 2010 by Mr Fudge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4 Strings Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 What a result too! If it was me I would be standing near the place where Norman is standing. The guy is a legend and such a great chap to boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Fudge Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 This is the second time we would have supported him as well. I know a few BCers have posted about NWR before. We spent ages chatting to him and had a few beers too. A smashing bloke in every way. The last thing I talked to him about was basses or his rig. We were far too busy pumping him for stories and he was only to happy to oblige. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
