THE REGAL ROOM

Thanks to everyone that came to The Regal Room on the 26th March. It was a classic evening and the crowd made me feel right at home providing ocean sounds between tracks….or were they just being told to shhhh?? Either way it was most appreciated. If you didn’t tune in online you still might be able to catch a recorded webcast of the show by going to www.myspace.com/theregalroom Also thank you Christen & Gillian Caine, Chad Saaiman, Vicki Clarke & Carrie Haber. it was a pleasure sharing the evening with you. Good times. wide

The Grey Horse – Kingston – 15th March 2009

pete__dave_jpgThe last of the dates on this tour brings us back to Pete’s local and musicians favorite The Grey Horse in Kingston upon Thames. A friendly pub filled with music loving people that all seem to know Pete well and the fact that there are photo’s of him on the walls gives you an indication of the love they have for him.

Also on the wall I notice the running order for the afternoon and following Papa George ( a fantastic blues musician who was playing on our arrival) is Peter Bruntnell. .

Pete starts with Dave doing a small set of classic covers and then announces that Im going to play a half hour set in the middle of his slot.

The fact that I wasent billed to play at this point and then was going to take half an hour away of what should have been thier beloved Mr Bruntnell left me feeling a little bit nervous and a touch uneasy.

However I soon found out I had nothing to worry about as the warm supportive locals gave me a fantastic reception and I could see why Pete refers to this place as his home pub.

Half an hour later and I play my last song of the tour.

A brilliant week of playing varied venues and meeting some wonderful people.
Im grateful to Pete for asking me to come and grateful to all the ears that listened that had never heard of me and even then went on to buy my new album.

I hope to be back.

See you on the next one.

Thanks
