Hi Tabnab,
we have yours truly on bass, Ian on vocals, Jane on vocals, Bruce on guitar, Mick on keyboards, Smiley on drums, Carrie on pipes. We have rehearsals on Thursday night in Maryhill with our Mystery guitarist, who will be playing The Big Weekend in Galashiels, as our Brucey is off supporting the Who with his old band The Casbah Club. When we booked the gig, Bruce could have made it from Hyde Park to the 4GM gig, because of the time slot they had. Unfortunately, the time slot was moved to later on in the day, so Bruce had no chance of making it to Galashiels on time. Bruce was delighted with his replacement, and really rates this guy. He is from another Huge Scottish band, who are personal friends of mine personally in the personal sense. Personally I think they are s |

Thanks for that.
Looking forward to the gig even more as it approaches.
It's Saturday 13:05 and quite hot and sunny here in Gods Country, hoping for very much the same next Saturday.
Loretta ; No probs, glad you liked it. There may be something else in the offing after the Shields gig.

Well the weather in Shields is fabulous...... Hope next week is more of the same!!! There was a write up in the Shields Gazette yesterday re the Summer Festival. Piccie of 4GM followed by:
"Next Saturday its the turn of Four Good Men, a Scottish band whose members have between them sold 40 million records. The line-up features Derek Forbes and Mick McNeil from Simple Minds, Bruce Watson from Big Country and Ian Donaldson from H2O.
In their previous groups they've had almost 60 top 40 singles and 20 top 10 albums - including eight number ones. Now they have come together as Four Good Men to perform their former groups' hits. Their set includes 1980's classics such as Dont You Forget About Me and In a Big Country. The gig will be a good chance to relive those days, but they've been working on some original material too."
I know the amphitheatre is going to be absolutely packed out - and especially if its weather like this. I would suggest we all meet up at the New Crown fairly early as the support act comes on at 7pm. Mott the Hoople are playing tonight. I'll have a wander by and see what time the place gets busy...... next week I imagine it will be 100% busier...!! Roll on the 10th. |

Not sure what time we will be there, Loretta.. but FFL is hoping to be at the bar some time before 4pm. It depends on the traffic I guess on the way from her neck of the woods..
Looking forward to seeing you there, and I will chat to you tomorrow..
