Subject: Where is Keith Hancock? From: Alexis Date: 30 Mar 06 - 02:16 PM I was going through my CD collection the other evening and came across a couple of CDs by Keith Hancock. Played them both and they were so good. He comes from Manchester way.I tried a google to see if there was any news of gigs etc, but nothing. Does any one know what he is doing? Both albums were self penned, really passionate emotive stuff. I saw him at Holmfirth Festival a few years ago and he was excellent. Cheers Alexis |
Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: Les in Chorlton Date: 30 Mar 06 - 05:16 PM I believe he is alive and well and can arrange for a devise to be fitted to a vehicle, such that the vehicle can carry pieces of glass. But he remains a demon tune player and song writer who owes much to no less than Chis Cole, bigger demon that most upon the melodeon, founder of Gorton Morris Men and the magnifiscent, Gorton tank, who has gone to Scotland to do Cafe things. But what do I know? And who are you Alexis, and how do you know of these things? |

Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: Alexis Date: 31 Mar 06 - 11:38 AM Thanks for the info. Can't see me wanting a thing fitted to my fiat punto so as to carry glass, but I will bear it in mind. How about gigging? Is he, and if so where? Cheers Alexis |

Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: GUEST Date: 01 Apr 06 - 05:56 AM Strange but I have just turned (for home use) some of Keiths Vinyl into CD's including the Elecropathics where are they? |
Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: r.padgett Date: 01 Apr 06 - 06:43 PM 'Grog' from Electropathic (battery band)can be found sometimes at Wakefield First Sunday Session at the Jolly Sailor, Thornes Wharfe lunch time and at the Red Shed I believe on certain Saturdays |
Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: Dick The Box Date: 03 Apr 06 - 04:41 AM Tim Veitch of the Electropathics is alive and well and living in Abbotts Bromley, Staffs. Runs a monthly session at the Bagot Arms because then he only has 100 yards to stagger to his bed. (See Derby Folk for details) If you meet him then ask him why he was playing darts with syringes wearing nothing but a pair of latex gloves...... |
Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: GUEST,Charley O'Neill Date: 21 Mar 11 - 06:16 PM Alive and well and running a bar in Thailand apparently (true), don't know if any of his old recordings are available, he wrote some great songs...don't think he plays anymore |
Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: Surreysinger Date: 21 Mar 11 - 06:23 PM Alive and well, and I've seen some posting from him on Facebook - and what Charley says appears to be true re location (although I don't know anything more). Re the Electropathics - they had a reunion gig in Poynton a couple of weeks ago - a one off. |
Subject: RE: Where is Keith Hancock? From: GUEST,Betsy Date: 21 Mar 11 - 08:10 PM Charley is correct a good source tells me - anything further I could divulge would put me in deep water. |
