Green Fields of Telford's

Here is Green Fields of England from Telford's......


 

Flipside Radio

I had a busy weekend  just gone.  Rehearsing with Thor on Thursday. Then playing the open mic down at the Cherry Orchard on the Friday 24th April.  Then the Flipside Radio session on the Saturday. And on Sunday 26th playing at Telford's.  Dan Schott kindly shot some video footage of the Telford's session, which I might post later.

The Flipside session link is here.....the songs are
1. Green Fields of England - 2. Sunrise - 3. Jackdaw Alien

Cherry Orchard and Telford's

I will be playing at the Cherry Orchard again this coming Friday evening (17th April).  Thor will be with me as usual on bass, supplying a solid foundation.  I am looking forward to it, as ever.  I can't make it to the Telford's session on Sunday though.  I have to get back to Leeds before then.

I was in Chester at Easter weekend and enjoyed playing at the Cherry on Good Friday.  We did four songs, namely - "Strangers Outside My Door", "Green Fields of England", "The Burning Tree" and "Sunrise".  I was pleased that my elder brother, Bob, and his family came to see me.  I think it was the first time he, or any of them, had ever seen me play live.  They seemed to enjoy it!

I also played the Telford's session on Easter Sunday.  We only got to play two songs, as it was very busy with a circus theme, hosted by Rusty.  The two songs were - "Strangers Outside My Door" and "Sunrise".  My younger brother, Dave, came to see us at Telford's........he ended up drinking a bit too much by the end of the night, and had an enormous hangover the next day.   He still managed to get up and come round in the morning, helping us put our shed together on the allotment - much appreciated Dave!!
