COME ON YOU SPURS

-
Well what a great night Wednesday night was...but I missed it! I was at The Stables theatre at Milton Keynes watching Henry 'Blowers' Blofeld in his one man show. And very good it was too.

BUSY WEEKEND WITH GOOD FRIENDS

- First gig for The Greg Stacey band

Yes a busy weekend we had starting on Friday night when Liam, Trish, Dianne and I went to The Black Horse in Luton to see another friend of our's Richard's son's band. It was their first gig, the young guys all about 17 years old and I can say they were pretty good for their first time out in front of proud parents Richard and Annette.

It wasn't long before some other good friends dropped in, ex- Cheat lead singer Nick and Ralph and Boothy all came for a pint and listen to the music which had now changed to a blues rockabilly band. It was soon for another good friend of mine Chris Brookes, ex Cheat guitarist to take the stage with his new band. I forgot to mention that also in the audience was Paul Madden ex-Cheat drummer and record producer and friend of Robin Trower. As usual Brooksy was in fine form and played a great hour's set. Below are some short videos from the evening.

Then on Saturday it was off to White Hart Lane for the last time this season with Trish, Mike and Nick and surprise guest Jayne, to see Spurs claim a 1-0 against Bolton thanks to a Tom Huddlestone thunderbolt.


Good old Gomez, in great form

IT'S A CLASSIC

--
Every month I take CLASSIC Rock. It's a pretty good magazine, full of interesting stuff and it nearly always features music from my eras and the bands that made it. It comes free with a cover disc. Quite often this cover disc contains a couple of good tracks and the rest go in the bin and so does the disc. This month things are a bit different. This month's disc has 15 tracks and only one is naff and at least half are really really good. The other half are good. I will send a copy of this disc to whosoever wants one. Leave a message at the bottom. You won't regret it, I promise you and this is Mr. Fussy talking!
