Title: Two tickets for Richard Thompson in Basingstoke Wed 24th October
Post by: nwfsmith on October 23, 2007, 02:54:51 PM
Hi,

due to a couple of friends unexpectedly being unable to make the concert, I have two spare tickets for this show.

They're stalls row N, just off centre, and available for face value (from memory, £25).

If interested, please e-mail or reply.

Thanks,

Nick

You made it pas the M25 and down the M3 then Stat?

We didn't see you there. In fact we didn't see anyone we recognised there  :-[ apart from Peggy  :D

It was a great gig though. Al Bowlly and Hard On Me were the two stand-outs. Fine demonstrations of versatility and gusto  8)

Cheers

Nick

And lots of plank spanking and noodling ;D ;D ;D

Danny T was excellent as usual, as, indeed were all the band.

Brilliant night ;D ;D ;D

We even managed to catch the last bus from Abingdon (as opposed to the last train form Clarkesville) once Nick had dropped us off.

The bus was excellent timing - I thought I was going to hit it!. Thank you for volunteering to let me off the extra 15 miles of driving  :-*

I'm pretty sure I saw Dennis from a long way away.

It was a great gig - though put me in a warm darkened room even with the most spectacular band on stage these days and I tend to doze off by the end, so some of it I can't quite remember  :-\

(Isn't the Anvil Car Park well designed though...?  ::))
