The 1st birthday, the future and beyond...

We are in the process of confirming the line-up for January's B&B, our 1st birthday.

I really enjoyed co- organising and performing at the events last year. We put on the first B&B last January at The Ship in Leigh, I did a duet with Wendy and celebrated my 40th birthday the same evening. Tumbledryer Babies opened the night and Phillious Williams and his daughters concluded it.

After a couple of Saturday night do's at the Ship, we tried the piano bar upstairs at The Railway Hotel in the Spring. In the summer we experimented with a B&B at the Cobham Lodge in Westcliff, Ashley Jarvis compered and 52pound test did a solo acoustic set, it was great to see Becky singing again after so many years. The gig went well but the venue wasn't quite right. We had a long hard think over the summer hols and came up with the idea of Sunday afternoon gigs where we could take our children and the audience could also bring theirs.

So far the Sunday afternoon B&Bs have been brilliant, well-attended, no injuries so far - hightlights include... Liz Bentley, Columbo, The Phrogs and of course, Artgruppe, but all the acts have been fab.

Dates for 2010 -
Jan 31st-StHuck (acoustic), Artgruppe
April 25th - Carterhaugh
July 25th
October 31st

Hope to see you all soon xx
