Be glad for the song really does have no ending.
Arriving at the Picture Playhouse, Beverley on Thursday evening for the Incredible String Band gig I was fully expecting that it would be me and maybe five other saddoes in the audience. Walked in the door at 7.40pm for an eight O'Clock start and was greeted personally by Robin Williamson who was walking around talking to the full house crowd as if we were long lost family (which of course we are).
The gig was fairly low key with Robin doing most of the talking and Mike & Clive saying very little. Some of the numbers were a bit wobbly but, as they got into their stride, the music started to flow and it worked.
I'm glad that I went - it was worth the £15 and many old favourites were played alongside some that I'd never heard before.
