Torquay Reunion show 27th feb 2010

Well last Saturday night was our homecoming show at Ryans bar in Torquay. Many faces of old showed up inc people that I have known for over 25 year and even a couple that were at our first ever gig in 1992.

The set was split in half, the first set was Myself and Paul performing the ‘Into The Light’ album in full to add contrast I played the opening track Fortunes light on the Mandolin Here is a video clip.







After the main set we also did Morning Dew to finish off.


The after a break of about 20 minutes we did the electric set.

We had 2 new songs

The set went:-

1 To Behold
2 Each And Every Way
3 Jessica
4 Wait For Yesterday
5 Wait Here
6 The Living
7 Home Too Soon
8 Destiny
9 The Widows Blame
10 Tomorrow

And we did an encore of Jessica again.

To Behold we have played live acoustically but Destiny this was its first live outing.

Reception was very favourable to the new material so there will be more in the next set.

GP Electronics Amplifiers designed and built in Bovey Tracey

Image
The first guitar I ever saw, now with 2 amplifiers made by GP Electronics whom made the first Amplifier I ever saw.  When I was a boy I saw something very magical. It was called an Electric guitar and it had something equally as magical, a thing called an Amplifier. Both of these things were owned by a friend of my parents called John. The Guitar was a 1964 Gretsch Tennessean. When I was 16 I worked all summer on a Building site and saved up enough money to buy said guitar from him.  From that point onward I wished to acquire an amplifier as magical as that moment. This would prove to be a little bit more problematic because it wasn’t a Marshall or a Fender, or even a Sound City or a WEM it was made by GP Electronics of Bovey Tracey. The Small town on the Edge of Dartmoor that I grew up. Now GP stood for Gerry Pope a local inventor whom went from building amplifiers to controllers for hydro electric generators. I knew Gerry as well like John through my parents and the locals am

Roger Waters - This is not a Drill - Prague - In the Cinema 25th May 2023

Image
Usually if Roger Waters was to go on tour I'd go to at least 2 shows. This time however I decided not to. Mostly because the sheer cost of hotels and travel is through the roof at the moment, never mind the ticket.  Secondly I didn't enjoy the 'Us and Them' show that much. After the sheer perfection of touring The Wall how can you top that ? well you simply can't. Also I found some of his band very lacklustre specifically the drummer who was nowhere in the same ball park as the outstanding Graham Broad (whom I spotted in the audience of the Hyde Park gig a few years ago). Now its not the first time on Seeing a Roger Waters show in the cinema but it was the first time seeing a 'Live' show. I say 'Live' but there is some kind of recording as its being shown at 8pm and as Prague is 1 hour ahead of the UK then there will have been an element of time delay.  The show started with the new arrangement of Comfortably Numb. and straight away something felt wr

The South West Music Awards 2013

Image
So that was the South West Music Awards 2013.  It took place at 'Charlie's Live Lounge' a new club thats by the Pizza hut in Cowick street. As you go in you get the feeling that normally its a venue that plays dance music to boys and girls in track suits and Burberry Caps.  A truly horrid venue where they charge £10.70 for 1 glass of wine and one bottle of Kopperberg. while trying to order a lemonade and blackcurrent the barman had no idea what blackcurrant was in any way shape or form. The PA was appalling, you could not hear a single word for the first few hours as the mic was distorting to buggery. The locals were getting restless as they had nowhere to sit, many who had travelled a fair way to get there.  Far less movers and shakers there than usual but good to chat to a few of the great and the good such as Jackson Cooper, Adam Isaacs, Chris Mockridge, Marie Belsten, Lee and Lisa Fletcher, Andy Botterill, Andrew Padfield and Sarah Woodward as well as the Sirens g
