08 Dec 99 - 11:24 PM (#146952) Subject: Gig in Newmarket From: sophocleese Hello there people. I don't know if anyone's noticed a couple of messages of mine scattered in other threads so I'll come straight out and tell you. (Coughs and clears throat nervously) A friend and I are doing a coffeehouse gig in Newmarket this Friday, December 10, 8:00 pm. We will be joined in the intervals by our friend Katy Austin. I am one half of Brooks and Cooper (we still haven't come up with a name) we sing some English folk tunes, a few modern songs and some, make that a very few, original tunes. Now and again I tell him to leave the stage and sing a cappella . In retaliation Terry sings, for some unknown and probably disreputable reason, Jake Thackeray songs. If he can't get his E-string tuned I become desperate and have been known to recite Vogon poetry. We all pray that he keeps that string tuned. He plays guitar, I play recorder, bodhran, bells and shackles. Any Mudcatters from the surrounding area, and I notice a lot from Toronto, are welcome to come and hear us, I'd be delighted to meet you. As a clue I'll let you know that I am not the one losing my hair. If you're interested in the Corner Coffeehouse I found this address which will tell you about it, although its a little out of date as far as lineups go. http://home.interhop.net/~mburton/cafe.html |

Greeting as well to Katy, if you'd be so kind as to pass them on. I'm assuming, of course, that it's the Katy I met up at The Woods Music Camp last summer. Tell her one of the Olde Spyce boys says hello. |

09 Dec 99 - 03:06 PM (#147200) Subject: RE: Gig in Newmarket From: Steve Latimer Sophocleese, I would love to attend, if only for the Vogon poetry. I have met several Vogons in my life, most of them in upper management. Alas, I have prior commitments with my children. |
