Just to let Ferret fans everywhere know that we're singing at the Davy Lamp Folk Club, Biddick Farm Arts Centre, Washington, Tyne & Wear tomorrow night Sat 21st May. We are sharing the night with Jim Sharp who has been around nearly as long as ourselves. Look forward to seeing you there.

As I recall, wasn't Benny "the Whale" Graham part of Pegleg Ferret? Is he still to the fore?
    Long time since I heard Jim Sharp, too; small wonder , 'way over here in Canada's west coast. Jim was one I always looked forward to. A great voice. [Wish I was there!]

Thanks for the interest shown so far....It's true that Benny is in the band....in fact it's the same lineup as we've been since the early 1970's.....we just took a 15 year break!!! We've been back together for about 3 years now and are really enjoying what we're doing. For more information check out our website www.peglegferret.com
