Cracking night.

I never realised Backwoodsman knew so many Cliff Richard songs 😇

For the record, I still managed to forget to bring the baritone jobby.

I can't remember Rookery's mate's name but he took me back a bit with a Hamish song, Ian's friend sang of how she wanted to be a punk rocker with flowers in her hair, which was ironic given most of the audience were burnt out hippies apart from Andrew and I being of a punk aware age.

So, as well as those two, and I apologise for forgetting their names, Ian showed us how to play and tune down at the same time, Backwoodsman had two capos on at the same time, I played dangerously showing how to be a cheapskate and put a normal capo over five strings without it landing in his drink, Chris showed off his new guitar (another Reiner but there again he did get a lift off the chief executive officer of Reiner guitars, who sang a few nice songs himself for that matter. Jim had his baritone banjo, nice sound (for a banjo you understand.). The rookery played good guitar, oh and also brought his banjo. Danny had a nice choice of songs, Andrew never ceases to amaze me with his repertoire and Goff treated us to a couple of new ones.

In years to come, rock stars will be telling Kerrang magazine that they were in the audience that night.
