I'm really gutted that I'm not going to be able to make it. I hope everyone has a blast, and hopefully I can make the next one.
Hi Brits – I am looking for some London based CBG players/musos to help my daughter with an event. She is running a craft fair in a church on 1st April from 11 a.m. till 4.30.
If I was fit I would leap in and help but that is not an option so I am calling on you guys and gals to help out. Dena would like some background music during her craft fair. Obviously it won’t be so loud as to disrupt the buyers but will add to the atmosphere of her event. You would be playing in the altar area and I would like to mix CBG stuff with some more conventional type music.
As always with my rallying calls it is an unpaid gig but could be fun if you help make it so.
If you are interested please message me or email me with a link to your music bryan.folklaw@btinternet.com
Just a week away from Boxstock. 25th February, The Slade Rooms, Wolverhampton. Thanks to all of you who are already supporting the event by buying an advance ticket or booking a stall. Despite it being over 3 years since the last Boxstock, there have been more advance ticket sales than ever before, so I'm really pleased that the interest is still there.
For those of you who are undecided or haven't been before, these things don't come around that often, and rely on grassroots support, so if you are into the scene, please support it and come along.
I'm looking forward to seeing The Dusk Brothers for the first time ever, and am greatly honored by the fact the Fabian Fahr, the organiser of the German CBG Fest is coming. I'll have my full band with me, including the amazing "Lil'"Dave Smith on harmonica, plus Al Nichols on drums and Ken Stratford on double bass...and of course, the highlight of the evening will be the unique musical experience that is Hollowbelly. He does very few UK gigs, and I've had the pleasure, pain and sheer hard work of going on the road with him on many a European tour...I've seen his show many, many times, and it is always powerful and entertaining. He'll blow you away with his energy, and he has a wealth of stories and anecdotes which are part of the experience. With a Hollowbelly show you don't just get a gig, you get a 185% personal outpouring of emotion, energy, humour and passion...and he has merchandise!
Check out this mini-documentary on the man himself.
Tickets available from the venue:

If you won't know until the last minute whether you are going or not, you will also be able to pay on the door, so don't panic, but it helps us and the venue if we know roughly how many people we will have.
So in the words of Slade (well, the venue is named after them),"Get Down and Get With It!"
