24/7/08 - Canons Gaite, Edinburgh

My debut in Edinburgh. A nice little venue. The open mic session is called "Out of the bedroom", a nice idea. The down side is its an originals only which will limit my ability to play somewhat or I will need to be more creative
They have a strict booking policy and therefore I landed up being the last to play, not bad first time round.
I played under my pseudonym of "Not Andy"
50 things to do before I die
Staffordshire Hill
The Ballard of Bob and Rose. Only two verses as I do not know all the lyrics.
Will find more venues to play over the coming weeks and it will be better once I get a guitar here in Edinburgh.
