He's one of the nicest people you would ever want to meet. One heck of guitar player too. |

22 Oct 04 - 06:49 PM (#1304244) Subject: RE: John Mayall @ Hull Tonight From: s6k The gig was amazing. Mick Taylor snapped a string on the last song, and had to quickly swap with another guitar! i must say, he did fiddle with his sound a lot, and didnt seem to be at his best, but he was still amazing. Buddy blew everyone away, amazing, and John Mayall was fantastic as ever. tickets were only 20 quid, so whoever missed it missed out big time! there was about 6 seats empty. but, it was a great night. PS - for the person who mentioned Peter Green (Rich Bridge) i saw him as well, with his Splinter Group, last year. They were DAMN good. they played an acoustic set, and an electric set, and should be coming back to hull maybe next year. keep your eyes peeled, and i will advertise it on mudcat well in advance if hes playing. Very much worth seeing... there is a DVD out of the same concert (although not filmed at the Hull gig!) i have that too. Ciao for now. PPS - j0hn, it finished at 10.40pm, got home at 11.07pm, so too late to see Punch the Orse unfortunately, but I will no doubt see them again soon. Next stop - Fartington (see hull smoking club thread) |

Got introduced to Eric after the gig by a mutual friend, a fellow Robert Johnson enthusiast - he seemed a bit zonked. Bought the Beano LP afterwards. Happy days. Ray |
