The Blues Lounge.

Saw you and Billy perform there on Thursday with Doug McCloud. What a great night we had. A refreshing idea for a Blues Club in the North East! It's about time!!! Would recommend it to anyone who love the blues!

Hi
Had such a lovely evening at the Grey Horse last night wish we could have stayed longer but my friend had a migraine nothing to do with your music she came with it!!!!!!
I,ll keep checking your web site and will be at your next venue in the north east.
We used to go to a folk club way back in the sixties called the fort it was great maybe your parents will remember it, well it was the same kind of atmosphere thanks anyway!!!! Love your music !!!!!!

You guys (especially Lee) still owe me a CD. Despite having moved to the South Coast I hope I get to hear Lee playing with a proper blues-harp musician. I never had the chance when I was up in the NE. I'm sure there must be a blues/folk fest in Southsea you can wheedle your ways into...
