Bob Fox - past gigs, consolidated

Subject: Bob Fox house concert in Chicago area
From: Phil Cooper

This message may be of interest to any Bob Fox fans in the Chicago suburban area. The Fox Valley Folklore Society is presenting Bob Fox in a house concert of Thursday, Sept. 19th at 7:30 pm in Batavia, Illinois (about 40 miles west of Chicago). Send me a personal message if you want information and think you might be able to go.

I bought the album Nowt Sa Good'll Pass on speculation years ago and was a big fan the instant I heard "Bonny Gateshead Lass." I'm pleased to have a chance to see Bob perform. Thanks.

Wish I could go, but I'm in PA now. Might see you around in November tho. I'll be somewhat housebound giving my husband's mom some breaktime from caregiving. But I might make the Acorn a time or two.

Susan, Bob will be long gone by then, but our Chrismas Band (the Bittersweet Christmas Band) is playing in Park Forest on Nov. 30 and at the Acorn Dec. 20 (you'll probably be long gone by then, I suppose).

Yeah, rats. I'll be there for a long week in mid-November. Hope to get to the Acorn jams at least.

L & P were excellent tonight. Ask Mary Humphries and Anahata. M & A were brilliant and a big thanks to them.
Its nights like these where you go home, knowing why you put so much effort into running a folk club.

Karen and Colin Thompson were excellent and not to be missed if they are in your area.

Incidentally, Uncle Michael is taking care of L & C's sleeping arrangements, but many thank for ElGreko's Offer. What a nice bloke.

Just remember keep those belly buttons tucked in. Lucy is coming in a sheet of armour, and sword to bear. :-)

Last night we went to Bromsgrove Folk Club for the first time in years, to see Bob Fox. Just wanted to say we had a great time, nice venue (Bromsgrove Rugby Club), friendly crowd and good beer, we'll certainly be back. Good luck to the organisers for the Bromsgrove festival next week. Apparently they wont be at the rugby club next time !! Thanks for a great evening.

From: Johnny J

Well, I never thought we'd be lucky enough to see these two guys together again but it's happening next week.

Of course, Bob Fox still visits us fairly regularly and he's a "grand turn" on his own. However, he has now rejoined his old pal Stu Luckley (Ex Hedgehog Pie...Remember them?) for this very special one - off tour.

Whatever you do, don't miss this gig. Sheer class!

Venue: Pleasance Cabaret Bar - 8:00pm
Admission: £8.00 (£7.00 concession), Members £5

Subject: Review: Bob Fox and Billy Mitchell
From: Colin Randall

I freely admit to being biased in their favour, but would be delighted to hear from anyone who caught them on other dates on the tour (I was at the final date in Washington, Co Durham a couple of nights ago).

The gig I attended was wrapped up in a lot of football banter (Bob and Billy are on opposite sides of the Sunderland/Newcastle divide, as fierce as any outside Glasgow) and I even wonder to what extent they played on that when on neutral territory during the tour.

This is what I made of it, and it also shows my own footballing allegiance (let's hear it for beach balls):

A truly excellent night from the master last night.

Thanks to all who attended and thanks to the Ridoy Restaurant for hosting the night and for providing such tasty snacks. (If you are ever in Burnley, that's the place for a curry!)

Best wishes to Bob for the rest of the tour.
