Having not seen Cara perform for over a year, I was heartened to see them do a 45 minute floorspot at Market Rasen last night. Their performance of new material showed a certain polish and heralded for me the desire to buy the next CD (When they make one). At the end of the performance they did a double encore...firstly 'Abbeyfeale' and on extra demand they played a request for 'The Faerie Queen'. The end of the performance drew applause which lasted almost a minute...people clapping for almost a minute is not a common occurence. If you get the chance to see Cara live...go to it.
To Mike, Dave and John...keep it up lads..Lincolnshire needs you!
Can someone please put up the blue clicky for their website.
Best wishes, Mike.

Don't forget to look at Caras future appearances and go see them...you will not be disappointed. I thought they were good when I saw them over a year ago but they have improved on that. Best wishes, Mike.

I've very proud to be a Cara Gropey!. Longjohns and whelks a speciality, a delicacy and definitely NOT to be sniffed at!!!!

I've very proud - dear me Deirdre, after all your posts about my grammar. tut tut :-)

I am sure a good old sniff would do you the world of good. If you had been at MRFC on Friday, you would have been able to smell Oakley's boots. He took em off to perform, but he still left his socks on LOL :-)

Hear hear re Cara! They were great! Only wish I dared get up and jig about to one or two numbers...(OK OK no rude comments please, Twangy!)
I couldn't believe it when their set ended, it just seemed to fly by.Had a brilliant night on Friday, thanks to all who played/organised/ and G&T for doing a smashing job with the sound again.What a treat to hear three fiddles in one night, BTW, made a change and the variety was nice.

You could have done Rockhen, and you never know you might well have got to hold the Twanglers as well.

It was a very different evening in terms of style of music, but the quality of the performers was excellent.

I felt the whole night went by very quickly.

I thought the Beltona Band played some very nice tunes.

James Raynard impressed me very much and it is so nice to see younger performers hitting the scene. I loved his

I really like Karen & Colin Thompson, and I thought Colin's harmonising with Karen was great. Karen was suffering with a bad throat and almost had to call off. I am glad she didn't.

Cara - well Cara are Cara. Their set was so tight and the music was magic. There last two tunes as encore were lovely.

All in all a great night

I have all three of Cara's CDs and love them. They are three extremely talented musicians who perform both traditional and original songs with great dexterity. The music flows from them - their instrumentals are fantastic and the original songs they sing are very moving. I hope to hear them live one day!

OK Les, you got me on that one - personally, I blame it on all the Black Sheep ale I was forced to imbibe at the weekend.

Baaaaaaaaa.

Don't mention boots (or wellies)

Still, it made a welcome change from whelks!

Their music can be heard on the website above, my absolute favourite being "The Faerie Queen" but the three C/Ds are on my player permanently and help me get through the household chores...Ironing to Abbeyfeale is recommended.
Best wishes, Mike.

Just back from the Four Fools Festival where Cara did a stonking session with Tom McConville.

Well done lads, I hope you can get Tom to "guest" on a track or two of a CD sometime.

John - thanks for the tips in the guitar workshop.

Mick - thanks for the loan of the whistle for whistle & flute workshop.

Oaklet - thanks for not wearing the longjohns and keeping the whelks well hidden!.

Good to see you all again, thanks for a brill weekend.

I used to have a girlfriend I called treasure...not because she had a sunken chest but because my mates all kept asking "Where did you dig her up"????

Oaklet and the rest of them "Cara" lads are indeed treasures.

"Guest Chucky" How dare you call one of the most brilliant musicians and good guys around "fair to middling".

David has more musical abillity, sensitivity and compassion in his little finger than most people have, or ever hope to have in the rest of their bodies.

David's time and invaluable contribution with us in the "bad old Punch The Horse are brill days" were some of the most memorable events in this owld fellas long life span.

Good, bad or fair to middling "Punch the Horse" is still going strong.
