I remember going to see Ric Sanders' Blue Print (On the ticket it reads Rich Sanders' Blue Print) at Vino's in Nottingham on 10th October 1984...I remember speaking to him at the bar after the gig and during the conversation I recall Ric saying that if he could join one band, that band would be Fairport!


Who was in that with him?

I"ve lived without a TV in my home  for 40 odd years now..


Ah, well there we go then.

I know other people who don't have TVs. On one level, I admire them for it, but then you realise how it removes so many cultural reference points from the conversations.

Yes.  The number of times ive had conversations with friends and acquaintances that go 'Did you see.... oh you haven't got a TV have you...'

I don't mind. There's plenty of time for radio, books, records, visits to the cinema etc.

Jon Anderson and The Band Geeks last night in Austin!

I haven’t seen him with a full rock band since the Union Tour, and I was mightily impressed. He retains the vocal range, charisma and energy of yore. The set list included several songs from their new album, which blend stylistically with the parade of 70s era Yes classics. His bass player and musical director is a charismatic player named Richie Castellano, who doubles as the full time bassist for Blue Oyster Cult. The show was great fun and Jon is an inspiration to aging rockers and mystics everywhere.


I'm entirely without interest in the current Yes, but this is a band I'd definitely like to see.

 I really liked Ciaran's playing with Greg! Cry

on another note .....are will S and ColinB the same person? Wink
their Avatars seem to suggest so  Grin

No, we're not!  Even if we do appear to have similar tastes in music (but then that's why we are here in the first place!).


There's probably an AI app that we could put all our photos into and it could produce a generic Talkawhiler pic. Why does the name Frankenstein suddenly come to mind?  Shocked
