Still going - wonderful night, yet again, at the Picturedrome with Seth Lakeman and brother Sean and percussionist Cormac Byrne (from Meltham we are told) doing amazing things with a speaker cabinet!! Was it a speaker cabinet - it certainly looked like one! I'm sorry I didn't get the name of the bass player but he was good too.

This must all end soon.

But there's Janis Ian on Thursday. . . . .

Times Ed readers amongst Mudcatters might like to know that they are doing a bit on the festival either this week or next. A team of local head teachers formed a Morris side in addition to working with the kids to perform at a packed concert on Saturday lunch time. A photographer was in attendance so look out for it shortly.
