Subject: RE: John Conolly at Barnsley FC Mon 26th
What a brilliant night we had last night!!
Should a gathering of youthful talented musicians, we even had some singing from 'em

Never seen as many young ladies (with their blokes) for very many years!

Zoe Bottomley says she's not a musician, yes she is; she means she's not an instrumentalist (Dave her dad is a brill guitarist and accompaniest)

Zoe gains in confidence all the time and choice of material from Kate Rusby to what she likes

James Meadows really nice player of Banjo and I think works part time with The Music room at Cleckheaton

Chappy that finished off the night very very professional and says hes already sung with a band at Glastonbury (among others)
His name is Leon O'Doherty any body heard of him?

Also BOM (Barnsley Original Music) are have a fest over the weekend coming
I think more info on our Barnsley Folk Club Web site
( I hope to be at Warwick FF with Jimmy Mc Donald Malcolm Speake and Chris Lowe and have another song or two with Alhambra this weekend)
