yeh sunday was great, monday it pissed down.

Kirsty was ill and cancelled.
Another duo took their place Roger Wilson and Karen Tweed - Ithink it was. I was really tired having had a ride on a tram and carted round my guitars to do three sets by that time, and I missed the BIG act.

However there were some great musicians there.   the Down trodden string Band complete with Apalachian style step dancers; a very young lady from Buxton who sang her own songs with a very mature voice and played a pink guitar very well, Lucy Spraggans - her Mum runs the music shop in the square at Buxton - she tells me; the very accomplished Martin Hall, and Derby folksinger Pete Castle , and Manchester funnyman Dominic Collins. Oh yeh and Chris Rockcliff's duo aussi.

Could have done with a few more dance teams for the atmosphere, could have done with a small PA in the pub - however for a first attempt it was very creditable. I hope they do it all again next year.
