Folk

I’m off to see Fairport Convention on Wednesday at the Roses Theatre in Tewkesbury and am certainly expecting a fine evening. I anticipate superb musicianship, a laid back, folky ambience and many a fine toe-tappin’ tune. There shall be no Andy Gill-type figures throwing electric guitars on the deck and reciting cold verse in a monotone over the feedback but Gang of Four was a one-off. This gig will provide different charms and will be welcome for all that.

There’s a couple of films I want to see at the Roses: Napolean Dynamite and A Very Long Engagement. I shall try and buy tickets on Wednesday.
