Anyone within reach of Bishop's Stortford tomorrow would have a wonderful evening listening to George's songs, do try to get along.

Sadly I now live too far away from Stortfolk but am looking forward to hearing El Greko again at Wheaton Aston, he's well worth listening to & his soul shows through his songs.

Sorry about the movie Breezy! Maybe you don't have the right prog, perhaps El Greko will let you peep at his?

Wouldn't have thought that Spotlight would be on the way back from Wheaton Aston, especially pulling a caravan. Probably not this time, sorry!

Oh, and can someone change 'the men' to 'guru' on the website please? I feel as if I'm cross-dressing & schizophrenic to boot!!!

Hello George,

Just wanted to say "Break A Leg!!" I know this is the first festival. I hope all goes very well for you this weekend and with the other gigs. Also, just to remind you that The Moor & Coast fish & chips are the same two fellows, Glen & Chris, great guys who run the Moor & Coast" festival in Whitby. So make sure you drop in on them. All the best.

(G'Day Breezy. Hope all's well with you too.)

Cheers!

Dan

A lovely plug for George from Frank Hennessy on the annual round-up on Radio Wales' Celtic Heartbeat at the New Year. He said George was one of the finest singer/songwriters in these isles and was not to be missed - as I'm sure anyone who's heard him would agree!

Barton gig is Feb 5th for those of you who think you have missed it.

And the hairy one, Moses (judge for yourself if she really is six feet tall) and the Ref will also be supporting this event. (As well as our lovely Guru, Ross etc. etc.)

Promises to be an evening not to be missed!

We're too far away, and it makes me sad. If you're closer to these gigs than North Carolina, USA, I've got one word:

GO!

Mick Peat of Radio Derbyshire played one of Georges numbers this week and even talked of trying to get to see George, when he is in Derbyshire.

I think I have got that right.

I only hope George, when you get Famous and Very Rich, you still talk to all the people who were nice to you on the way up.... ;-P


BTW, my ieSpell checker insists that 'Papavgeris' should be spelled 'Savageries' ... :-)

What kind of a champion of ordinary people would I be otherwise! It'll never happen, but should I stray you all have hereby licence to kick me where it hurts (wallet).

"Savageries" indeed - must remember that.

George is famous - at least in Mudcat - and he is very rich - in talent, in presence, in modesty. Thanks for a great night in Nottingham. The audience were well impressed, lots of positive comments. So relaxing to hear that unique velvety voice ( I must play your CDs more often)
