02 Jun 09 - 03:40 AM (#2646212) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: Chris Green Having heard some preview tracks from their new album 'Gleowien', I'd also urge you to grab yourself a copy. It's one of the best things I've heard this year! And incidentally, if we're being REALLY old-fashioned, I think you'll find they're actually known as Vickye ye Swann and Jonnye ye Dyere. Chris |
02 Jun 09 - 05:04 AM (#2646244) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: trayton If you want to be old fangled about it bubblyrat you could try "Mr Jonny Dyer and his lovely assistant Vicki" but I wouldn't. |
02 Jun 09 - 05:37 AM (#2646258) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: George Papavgeris "Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer" is what they call themselves, why patronise them. Also note and respect the spellings. Wonderful musicians and singers, superb perfomers, lovely people, great couple. Miss them at your peril! |

02 Jun 09 - 03:15 PM (#2646743) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: bubblyrat So many of the old values,niceties,formalities , and conventions slipping away-----oh well, that's progress for you ! Sorry I mentioned it,really. |
02 Jun 09 - 05:27 PM (#2646873) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: George Papavgeris It happens, mate, it happens. And not always a Bad Thing either. I broke a few traditions myself when I met and married Nessie without it having been an arranged marriage. Only a few years earlier, my sister followed the tradition - to her later regret. Anyway, I somehow think that "Jonny & Mrs Dyer" just doesn't have the same ring as an act name...:-) |
03 Jun 09 - 02:15 PM (#2647559) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: The Admiral Having had them in our Folk Club at Chippers we're looking forward to having them at MFC tomorrow! |

04 Jun 09 - 05:40 AM (#2648005) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: GUEST,Tom Bliss Is it ok to cutnpaste this from the beeb? "Hello! "I thought I'd drop in and mention the album launch of Vicki Swan & Jonny Dyer next Thursday (11th June, 8pm) at the High Barn in Great Bardfield in Essex. It's a fantastic renovated barn venue, but that's not the best bit.... "Vicki & Jonny have done a lot of making big bands with other people, this is a rare occasion to see the Vicki & Jonny Big band... Mark Southgate on bass, Pete Flood on percussion and Roy Jones on bodhran. This is the line up on the album, so it should be a good night! "Entry is free if you bring an instrument and play in the little session after the gig." Hope so!

Sorry we've given consternation at the ordering of our names, we chose the order before we got married and decided on "ladies first". Looking forward to seeing everyone tonight! :) Vicki |
04 Jun 09 - 06:21 AM (#2648022) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: evansakes Never mind all that about braving the M25, Vicky.....thinking forward to Saturday afternoon how are your sea legs? Looking forward to hearing you play while messing around on the river! It had better be sunny! |
04 Jun 09 - 07:10 AM (#2648048) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: kitchen piper Sunny would be very nice! Looking forward to it! :) |
04 Jun 09 - 06:43 PM (#2648611) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: evansakes If you're up for a challenge, Vicky, how about working up a swift version of 'Sweet Thames Flow Softly'? Go on....you can do it! |

05 Jun 09 - 06:33 PM (#2649460) Subject: RE: Vicki Swan + Jonny Dyer at Maidenhead FC From: Mark Powell We were there and it was a great gig (as you might expect from Vicky and Jonny, whatever order they come in!) If it's any consolation (not that you need it), I donĀ“t think he approves of "Maggie Sand and Sandragon" either! We look forward to seeing "her and him" at their album launch next week. |
