Wedding in a teepee

I was under canvass with Three Point Turn on Saturday.
The floor was hardly big enough for those who wanted to dance, but they managed.
We played till 10.15, then left them enjoying a DIY disco.
In the interval I enjoyed watching a creative photographer at work

A new venture

I've stared a new venture. A cross between a music session and a dance club. Have-a-Go
The first meeting went well, so we booked the Chester Deaf Centre for June 23rd, and in the Autumn it will be the 3rd Thursday of the month. All welcome to play, dance or call.

Another new band in May

Called with Folk Heritage at the Swettenham Arms for a wedding. I like bands with fiddle players, and marvel at how many different ways they can make a great sound.

Also called in a barn with Family band, took my turn on the callers' rota at two clubs (Adlington and Hawk Green), and enjoyed the Chester Festival.

Partying with a new band

Last Saturday was my first booking with Three Point Turn. Another band with an excellent fiddler, they played mainly Irish tunes for Kath's 60th birthday in Birkenhead. I enjoyed listening to them before the break, then after the food we had a floor full of dancers.

A joint birthday

Karen and Christine are cousins who share a birthday (give or take a couple of weeks), shared a pram in the past, and last week shared a 50th party. I called and a mini Black Cat band played. Marilyn on melodeon and Nicholas making his fiddle sing (Black Kitten really - they did an excellent job).
