Oh deary dear nowhere near.....  :'( :'(

Come to Farnsfield on the 19th JJ!

Ooh, The Norwegian Church in Cardiff Bay. Lovely setting. Only problem is that I've got a ticket to see Show of Hands that night.

Its an idea as my son lives in Birmingham, could tie it in with a visit!  :D

That would be brilliant JJ x

Ah yes, you and many others who usually come along to the Cardiff shows. Bad timing.

It has been re-branded as the 'Not the SoH Concert'  :)

You can catch the guys in Rumney at the Church Hall on Friday the 17th of March 2017 though.  It would be nice to see you. Stick it in the Diary today  ::)

Thanks for the advance notice. I will put it in the diary now.

Peter Knight’s Gigspanner open their Autumn 2021 tour in Coventry, with a gig at St. Bartholomew’s Church/Community Hall, Brinklow Road, Binley, Coventry, CV3 2DT.
Tickets are going very well, so if you fancy attending, please contact me (John) - tel. 07872-580450 or email jowen6@yahoo.co.uk to reserve yours.
Tickets are also available at www.wegottickets.com/event/516183
This is a fundraising gig with all profits going to the hall refurbishment project. We will, of course, follow all covid regulations and guidelines that might be in place.

The gig is on 29th October!
Can’t believe I forgot to include the date!

I wonder if there is anyone who lives in Stratford Upon Avon who fancies coming to the Coventry gig - I have a friend who lives there and would like to come but has no transport. She would be grateful for a lift. Thank you.

I’m now down to the last seven tickets for the Gigspanner concert in Coventry on 29th October 2021 - really looking forward to a live gig again!
Please contact me (jowen6@yahoo.co.uk) to reserve tickets for this fundraising gig, with all profits going to our hall refurbishment project.

After an amazing Gigspanner concert last October, Peter knight returns to St. Bartholomew’s church/community hall along with John Spiers to open their album launch tour in Coventry on 23rd February - a great opportunity to see two music legends in concert.

Please contact me (email jowen6@yahoo.co.uk or mobile 07872-580450) for more information or to reserve tickets.

The Gigspanner Big Band were one of the highlights of a very strong Great British Folk Festival, last November. I'd recommend their live show to anyone who hasn't yet caught them.

I've had a press release for their new album Both In A Tune which is out on the 11th Feb.

"Knight & Spiers explore every facet and nuance, morphing and melding the music into something exploratory and extraordinary and taking listeners on a journey of striking singularity – and Scarborough Fair as you’ve never heard it before."

Morphing and melding? Sounds like characters from the Addams Family.  ;D

We are looking forward to Peter Knight’s Gigspanner returning to Coventry on 18th November for another fundraising gig at St. Bartholomew’s Church Hall, Brinklow Road, Binley, CV3 2DT.
As Gigspanner have announced that the trio won’t be touring in 2023, this will be the last opportunity  to see them in concert for quite a while! Surely an opportunity not to be missed!
Please contact me (mobile 07872-580450, email jowen6@yahoo.co.uk) to reserve tickets or for more information.

After the sellout Peter Knight’s Gigspanner concert earlier this month in Coventry, Peter Knight returns alongside another folk music legend, melodeon player extraordinaire John Spiers, for another fundraising concert on 18th April 2023.
The gig will be held at St. Bartholomew’s Hall, Coventry and three quarters of the tickets have already been reserved, so contact me if interested (jowen6@yahoo.co.U.K./07872-580450).

I am pleased to announce that Peter Knight’s Gigspanner (trio) will be in concert in Coventry on 7th May - this is a rare opportunity to see the Gigspanner trio, as they are only planning one short tour this year.
Please contact me (jowen6@yahoo.co.uk) for tickets or for more information.
