"Significant quote from the official press release for The Folk Awards:-

Squeezebox player John Kirkpatrick was named Musician Of The Year. Eddie Upton, Director of Folk South West, accepted the award from actor Greg Wise on Kirkpatrick's behalf.

His website does not say that he had a gig last night.....


John Kirkpatrick did however send a long and gracious thank you note which was read out at the awards by Mr Upton. "

But why no mention of this on the Radio 2 programme last night very poor-or did i miss it?
