Thread Name: Brixton Bert - Benefit
Subject: RE: Brixton Bert - Benefit
we started out thinking about Walton,but as most of the folkies at the Walton Festival tend to live south of the Thames and Walton is not on the way to anywhere (except the North Sea)decided Surrey or Kent would get the biggest audience.I might ask Joan Gifford,Wivenhoe Folk Club to use a singers night!As they are always sold out.
Does anyone have Johnny Silvos number in Sweden as I have mislaid it!
He is at Wivenhoe in November.
I would also like to contact Diz Disley,Shirley Collins and Toni Arthur as they are all good friends of Bert's.
News of the man himself,the locals at the Royal Marine are going round to see him and giving him lifts to the pub.We are still waiting to see the speech therapist and for an appointment for the brain scan.
All messages left on mudcat I will pass on to Bert,so thank you all!
