Subject: Update: El Greko 5th CD launch St Albans
With ten days to go (the "home launch concert" for "ORDINARY HEROES" is on Friday 29th October), only about a dozen tickets are left, and a mini-rush is expected from Herga-ites and Snorbanites at the last minute. Don't be left standing at the door! Book now by PMing either Breezy or myself (not both, please!).

This will be the only launch concert with a "full band" and backing singers (though only 5/9 the original one from the recording, due to circumstances). More precisely:

John SPIERS (Squeezy) on squeezeboxes (naturally)(*)
Amanda WHATLEY         on violin & octave violin (*)
Miranda SYKES          on double bass/vocals
Moira CRAIG            vocals
Johnny COLLINS         vocals
Graeme KNIGHTS         vocals
John BREEZE            vocals

(*) replacing Anahata and Saskia Tomkins
...and of course without Cloudstreet who are by now in warmer climes.

A very good night indeed is promised - well, I am going to have one for a start!

George
