Really enjoyed what I saw of the weekend - I was on in the afternoon on saturday,then had to leave for another gig elsewhere in the evening.It was fun to meet up with friends there,like Gerry and Ani MacNeice,Gerry Cooper,Brian Stafford etc etc. I know I had a fair few supporters in the audience, but also some who'd never seen me perform before and as I looked out at them their faces registered a strange mixture of astonishment and terror.I think I was about two songs into my set when the monsoon descended - so powerful was the rain that I could hardly hear myself,and it poured through the canopy in various places.I like a challenge - as long as I can overcome it!
Thanks to Roland and everyone for their efforts.
