Title: Swarb's Lazarus at Abingdon Unicorn Theatre
Post by: Maart on March 12, 2006, 02:22:08 AM
Hi there

We had such a great night at Lowdham Village Hall. Swarb's raving about it. It's really true that he really is back. It's also true that Kev and I will have to be very fit musically to keep up with him. Anyway, the next one's on Tuesday in Abingdon, at the Unicorn Theatre, and the gig will be recorded for a forthcoming live album. There will be another gig recorded, probably at Hailsham, and from the two gigs we should have enough material to put out such a thing.

I have to say that it's such great fun, and also for me a dream come true to play those tunes with the man. And Kevin is such a sweetheart. I'm a lucky boy...

See you down the road

Maart

This is really great to hear, and I'm sorry I can't use Star Trek-type technology to beam over there.
I'll just have to purchase the CD when it becomes available and anxiously await the accounts of the concerts from those fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time.  Roll on, Swarb!

Talkawhile's Oxon contingent will be there en-masse; Me, Fi, Jude, Sandra & Chris. Any others?

We're aiming to have a jar or two in the Broad Face (http://www.broadface.com/) beforehand. Come and say hello and let's make this a loud and enjoyable gig for the recording.

Cheers

Nick

That was excellent.

Have got some on video too (but Nicks is better than ours as he is better at it).

When the live album comes out listen for Fi's sneeze.

It was great   :D.

Chaps, I am sorry for sneezing so very loudly! :-[ but thanks for the 'bless you' (from Maart or Kevin? - I was hiding at the time!!).

Cheers 

Fi

we ought to note that Phil Beer & Colin Davies were both in the audience to witness the maestro at work!
