Hi guys. next weekend (14th and 15th) we have a mini music festival in Wiltshire.  Slowpaw, Brickdust and Chillicool Kev will be playing on Saturday evening (curry night!) with a whole bunch of local musicians with a wild variety of styles.  Musos breakfast on Sunday morning and then a Chickenbone John make and play workshop followed by an open mic at 5 pm. Free camper van spaces in the car park. Food and ales available. What are you waiting for? Get on down.

That is really hard for you and your family.

A good choice with the Monkees - they always help to cheer up the bad times.
Comment by StumbleCol on January 25, 2015 at 8:29am

Not been around much on the scene lately, been going through a load of BS, my kids have lost 3 grandparents in 7 months. It`s been one death after another, we are hoping for a better year! 

Anyway, please check out my latest video, featuring a Monkees cover!
