Well, I don't know about you, but I reckon the beach volleyball team should go all the way...

Wonderful night. Turned into a bit of a session towards the end, thanks in no small way to Jim's powerful voice and dropping hints by shouting what key (he thought) his uke was in. Goff floated between John Connoly and trad via Guns n Roses, Danny picked out some good songs, Chris included one he penned himself, the rookery dug out some fine classics, Andrew carried on with his nack of singing songs you remember being played in folk clubs over the years, to fine effect. Albert counted four guitars and a uke he built being used in the room whilst providing vocals for Chris at one point and yours truly dug a few out of the archives.

Awful lot of digging going on.. We arranged our input to the Epworth Music Day in June. (Sat outside the Mowbray all afternoon singing and playing. Sat inside The Mowbray all night singing and playing. Took some working out, I'll tell you..)

Oh, I won the raffle. But when I got it home it wasn't the Taylor I bought a ticket for. Turned out to be a Martin copy, Collings or some such name. Tsk.

Alternative reviews can be found via either the rookery or anyone who didn't turn up.
