13 Nov 12 - 12:38 AM (#3435634) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick, UK From: GUEST,Big AlWhittle May I just recommend this strange fellow to you. He plays nicely, has some great songs, is one of the best interpreters of Mctell, Ihave ever heard. Very talented. As the late Tony Capstick, what can it matter that he is mishapen and ugly? Anywau if the crowd ask for their money back - you'll still have the raffle money. Bob Kirkpatrick will give you a good night. In the daylight hours, he sleeps in a coffin. |

16 Nov 12 - 07:50 AM (#3437360) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: GUEST,Big Al Whittle Bob - just a suggestion - but wouldn't it be an idea to have a link to some of your playing. Youtube, soundcloud something like that. Let the dog see the rabbit. Show people how good you are. Come on everybody. This is a diary that shoul;d be full of gigs. He plays Martin and Taylor guitars beautifully Writes great songs. And he's not even asking for a fee. Some help towards petrol money and a sofa to kip on. And unlike me, he's willing to travel. Inverness for a fiver. What a man! |

16 Nov 12 - 07:56 PM (#3437614) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: GUEST,Big Al Whittle By no means my favourite, but I think this gives a better idea of your style and is better soundwise/ It soungs like a tent flapping in the background of that first one - dunno what it is. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=heqVrpvxphc&feature=related |

18 Nov 12 - 07:55 AM (#3438115) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: GUEST,big Al It means you're a living legend Bob. Get used to it These gits are really only into dead legends and songs about simple fisherfolk working down a coalmine being transported to Australia - that sort of bollocks. We living legends just have to put up with it, until we're dead. they'll be sorry when we snuff it. meanwhile refresh means - we exist, we create folk music -in spite of you buggers! |

20 Nov 12 - 12:52 PM (#3439349) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: Leadfingers Bob has just come back from Australia having left his car at my place for the duration ! He has now collected his car and not even thanked me , so dont expect anything from him if you do give him a Gig ! On current showing I certainly wouldnt even give him the time of day ! |

20 Nov 12 - 03:53 PM (#3439439) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: GUEST,Big Al Whittle But there again, weren't you the guy who said on mudcat that musicially I was at the level of floorsinger? You are a harsh critic of humanity,LF. Perhaps people that you dislike enough for you to denounce them on a public forum - perhaps it would be best not to have anything at all to do with them.. I imagine Bob would rather have paid the parking fee than be decried publicly in this way. |
|
20 Nov 12 - 06:41 PM (#3439517) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: Leadfingers Then he shouldnt be such an arrogant bastard ! It wouldnt be so bad if he attemopted to apologise for his ignorance of the basics of common politeness ! |

21 Nov 12 - 07:59 AM (#3439764) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: My guru always said Terry, is it possible that Bob collected his car at an unearthly hour and didn't want to disturb you? Or that he was so jet-lagged he just wanted to get home and would thank you later perhaps? But I do agree that this seems a bit harsh of you to vent online, could you not have contacted Bob first and given him the benefit of the doubt? I do hope this side-issue doesn't detract from any interest in giving Bob a gig. I thought that this thread would be a good way of getting around. I was even thinking of trying it myself.... |

21 Nov 12 - 08:22 AM (#3439773) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: GUEST,Big Al Whittle Great idea MGAS! Only thing is - I think you were the one who pushed past me when I was desperate for the toilet one night in Sidmouth. Don't book this man! He will rush past you to the toilet, buy the winning raffle ticket, and eat the last chip butty! |
|
21 Nov 12 - 08:32 AM (#3439777) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: Leadfingers I PM'd Bob , and got a snotty reply ! THEN I posted to this thread , which I would not have done if he had made any kind of apology ! And he collected the car late afternoon when I was sat in my lounge on the computer ! As far as I am concerned , he is a Bloody User , with NO consideration for other people ! |

21 Nov 12 - 08:40 AM (#3439782) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: Leadfingers And saving someone something in excess of £200 (Heathrow Car Park Fee) would , I would have thought , warranted a thank you ! |

Terry, it sounds like you did all you could, and I agree, a thank you would have been in order. Difficult situation! |

22 Nov 12 - 05:09 AM (#3440299) Subject: RE: Bob Kirkpatrick - seeking gigs in UK From: GUEST,Big Al Whittle Oh I dunno Bob... When you're dying for the lav and you can feel the stuff like a torrent of torpedoes jostling at the backdoor of your bum, waiting to get out......and then some massive buddhist woman elbows you out of the way in the queue for the unisex toilet, saying - sorry dearie! me chakras are blocked, I need a good clearout, standback...! I don't forgive that sort of thing, not easily. Then they start singing about a merry morning in May, and you're thinking what about my traumatic twenty minutes in Sidmouth, Harriet bleeding Krishna! |

Any chance of a parking spot? Not that I am likely to go to Oz. But I am a bit sniffly & snotty right now. Now NZ is another matter. And I do have relatives in Farnham Common. But thanks for the offer (assumed). |
