18 May 05 - 04:03 AM (#1487065) Subject: RE: Johny Silvo on at Swinton tonight! From: GUEST,Dave the Gnome in the back door (again) Yes! We have a good guest every other week more or less. Usualy on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of the month. The ones in between are good singers nights:-) It sometimes works out that singers and guest nights swap over due to guest availability etc but the above is a good rule of thumb. A better one is check out the web site. Isn't always up to date but we try our best:-) Are you in the area wld? Mine is the last phone number on the contacts page if you want to give me a bell. Cheers Dave |

He still has the magic and am sure it will be a great night. Still got an Alex Campbell LP (a real plastic one) of Johnny with Dave Moses featuring songs like Corn Bread Peas & Black Molasses, Freight Train. A great voice and pesonality. |

19 May 05 - 02:57 AM (#1487843) Subject: RE: Johny Silvo on at Swinton tonight! From: Boab Tam --you're making me wish I was back in Irvine! Johnny is one of the best, and I know a few in the folk club in the Golf Hotel who'll literally be welcoming an old and treasured friend. First glimpse I ever had of Johhny was the night I walked into Irvine club [the auld Eglinton, upstairs]and there was this big black guy IN FULL HIGHLAND DRESS singing with great gusto "the Mingulay Boat Song"! What a performer, and what a voice. You lucky so-an'-so.... |
