Just a brief note really to say that John is playing a whole series of local pub gigs at present - The Tap - Eastham on Tuesday 25th July, The Dibbensdale Hotel, Bromborough on Thursday 27th are the next 2, and they are in addition to his regular spots around Liverpool at the weekends.
John was brilliant at The Pollards, maybe a tad too loud for the space, but we were sat at the front! The set was pretty much as usual, but John's repetoire is big enough to allow him to vary the content from night to night, so no Van Morrison tonight, but a lovely rendition of Damien Rice's "Cannonball" stood out for me, amongst others. Gary Hennesey(?) came and played mandolin for a spot, so we got Rod Stewart's "Mandolin Wind" and U2's "Losing My Religion", both with poor Jimmy sat off in a side room, but still playing bass, and then Dylan's "Little Sadie" and "Whiskey In The Jar" a la Thin Lizzy.
Another very good night from John - see him if you can.
