And they're at Hitchin Folk Club on Sunday May 13th.

No tickets, just a scrum at the door at 7.30...

I'll be there.

Anna, it is possible to pre-order tickets, as I did when the tour was first announced. It may be too late at this stage but see http://www.hitchinfolkclub.idnet.net/

See you there.

Ooh, thanks for that info Malcolm.  It may be a mistake but I won't pre-book for this one.  I arrived at about 7 for Phil Beer and co and despite being convinced it'd be a sell-out (the place was pretty full by the time PB started, admittedly) there were only about half a dozen people there by 7.30.  And it keeps my options open if anything comes up at home and I can't make it.  Not that that will be allowed, of course...

Well, a good night was had by all at The Sun in Hitchin.  Met up with Malcolm and friends and had a good chat during the interval.  I suspect I may have spied young Dennis (Denjack??) in the front row, but it's not the "done thing" to go up to a youngster as a random stranger and say "hello, are you Dennis?" If it's not who you think it is, the parents might take umbrage...

Peggy and PJ were on form, giving us a mixture of songs old and new, some from both of their catalogues, and lively banter and mucking about.  I hadn't figured Peggy as such a good guitarist, totally underestimated him there!  The Uke section was fun and I don't think Peggy played the same instrument two songs in a row...

Over the course of the evening there were a couple of what I'm coming to think of a "Hitchin Hitches"... Every band/group/person I've seen there has had one or two of these.  The girl who did the warm-up stint (very good, she was - all the way up from Devon - Ella someone?  Sorry, forgotten already!) had some trouble with her guitar strap while trying to plug the lead into it.  PJ had a "guitar in the wrong tuning" moment and amazing re-tuned the bottom E-string on the fly during the song, which was MOST impressive!  And the putting the Uke on the lyrics moment was fun too.

Special mention goes to the double harmonica solo and the Shadows number (complete with dancing).  I could go on and on but just to sum up, it was a fun night out watching two blokes obviously enjoying themselves up there. Smiley

Was that Ella Edmundson by any chance.. a young (early 20's) blonde girl..?? She supported Ric when he played for us, and is from Devon.

Can't wait for the Peggy & Peej gig at Farnsfield on the 16th June.. appetite duly whetted!

Yes Jen, that's the girl.  Did really well after she got her guitar strap sorted out.  She could go far.

I wondered where he'd got to!! Wink Shocked

           only joking Wink he was tucked up in bed by 9.30 last night catching up on his sleep ready for school.

Glad you enjoyed the night, really wish we could see them but sadly they're not coming near Kent.

A great night with Peggy & Peej at the Beinn Inn in Beautiful Glenfarg,  Great gig although there could have been more bums on seats. Laugh was that, whilst having a practice in the afternoon, Martin Taylor walked in!  Much putting down of guitars, etc.  However, bloody nice bloke MT.
Liked the story about him when he hadcompleted the Renault Clio ads, you know the Nicole..Papa thing.  Someone asked, "did they give you a free Renault Clio"?.  "No", replied Matin, "I took the money and bought a Merc"
Galilleo is a belting disc too.
Cheers all
