Subject: RE: Braunston Historical Narrowboat Festival
Just a note to say that the John Dunmore Boogie Band will be playing
(as usual) in the beer tent on Friday evening. A very experienced local band specialising in the good-time R&B music of New Orleans, delving into the catalogue of Fats Domino, Louis Prima and many others.   Always a great start to the weekend.
Canal artist and song-writer Dusty Miller will be selling his new song book - THE UNKNOWN BOATMAN AND OTHER SONGS. Look out for his stall in the marquee housing all the other excellent waterways artists.
And on Saturday evening the annual singaround (and playaround) will be taking place in the Old Plough pub in Braunston village.
