Dave and Bill are my favourite duo on the folk scene. Add John Conolly into the mix and it would be truly amazing. Sadly I can't make it but I'm sure it will be a very enjoyable evening.

Is this the link to CAMSCO Dick?

I hope lots of people buy them in the USA

For those who are making it to Faldingworth in Lincolnshire UK this Saturday, you can of course buy the new CD's on the night and get them signed by Bill Dave & John in the flesh (I think they will be wearing clothes. John might be wearing oilskins, looking at the rain at the moment :-))

Hiya Les - we'll be setting out as soon as we're sure that the world isn't going to be slurped down a black hole with this "collider" gismo they're switching on.
No point in wasting the fuel getting halfway to Faldingworth only to be sucked into oblivion - times is hard you know!!

Well what a night. The place was filled to the rafters and Bill,Dave and John gave us a wonderful night of music and humour and entertainment.
Many thanks to them and all the people who turned up to support Faldingworth Live and Bill Dave and John.
Big thanks to Gwenda and Terry Cater for doing once again a great job of the PA and MC'ing.

Unfortunately, we didn't have anybody taking photo's last night. Both of our people who would take the photo' were not there last night.
However, somebody at the front took a couple of photo's, but I didn't catch them at the end to ask them if they could send me copies. I'm going to follow that up and see if I can trace the person. I think it may have been one of the people from the Grimbsy Morris Team who were there. If I get them, they will go on the Photo Gallery section of the Faldingworth Live website.

The chairman (Dave Longden) of the Memorial Hall who is a dinosaur with computers wanted to say how much he enjoyed the evening and his village people thoroughly enjoyed it as well. Could that be because they only understand the Lincolnshire dialect or something like that. :-)

Certainly the best "Boy Band" that Lincolnshire can muster.... I believe we should think of a good name for the ensemble.... "Vestlife" has already been coined... so perhaps...do they all wear glasses for reading?? Could then call them "Blurred" .....

The Villan has told me about these scurrilous "Boy Band" names that are being "boy-bandied about"... HOW VERY DARE YOU !!! Here are my suggestions . .
      The Old Spice Boys. . .
      Gerry Hat-trick and the Pacemakers . . .
      Bill Whaley and his Rolling Stones . . .

Hiya Pete! Watch out,mate ,or Mrs Baked Alaska will be after you with her moose- gun . . .
