Did a gig last night in Saffron Walden. We were appearing with Aswad and Spandau Ballet. 2000 people there. I really enjoyed the gig. We went down a storm. They didn't know who we were but they cheered and clapped all the same. This country can be a great place sometimes. Rock'n'Roll!

I hope you did the " Thank you Saffron Waldren, good night" at the end Jon.

...and hopefully started with,

"We're gonna rock you tonight, Walden!!"

I've stopped in Safron Walden whilst working in that area, its a pretty wild town for its size.

May have been better attended but you had competition down the road at Audley End . Van the Man was on . Glad you had a good time.

Yeah I had some friends who went to see Van. But you couldn't squeeze any more bodies into our venue.
Cheers

Looks like you had a great time, congrats!

Might just do that although most of our stuff is private work.
I used to post up and coming events in my newsletter "Boogie News" which can be accessed through my website but I haven't updated it in a while.
I will be putting on a 1950's rock'n'roll gig in Lakenheath on 22nd October which is open to the public. It's not the usual type of music I play but it's kind of fun and it's to raise money for the local church and I think more people will support a night of rock'n'roll than a rock, pop, or blues gig therefore raising more money for charity.
Cheers
Jon
