Fogie, I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. Yes, Cutting and Wood are superb musicians, perhaps better than John and Jon, I don't know. If there is some sort of league table you could make up your own mind where to place this fiddler or that box player, but Spiers and Boden seem to have caught the attention at the moment, and deservedly so. I'm sure you are right, they would appeal to young listeners, but they appeal to me as well, and it's been many a year since anyone has described me as young. Anyway, the point is, Hope Village Hall ought to be full to bursting point with people who will be able to decide for themselves whether Spiers and Boden are worth the praise they are attracting.
