John Tams had a voice dep in the shape of Joe Topping, the theatre was a bit over-warm but it was a lovely gig :-) More about Folk on the Pier here http://theglamourcave.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/delarre-brothers-audience-survives-folk.html |

I saw The Albion Band too. I thought that on the one hand it took too much upon itself, when talking about "our back catalogue", for instance, but also that they treated the material with too much reverence. They seemed like a slightly awkward cover band. That Blair Dunlop's got a cracking voice though. |
