Punchbowl, Warwick 18/5/06

Morning badger followers last night was great.
Well I think so. I stepped up to the mic, in place of a young lad who's guitar had developed a fault to do a couple of songs whilst he fixed it. Then I was going back on later.
I played
Behind Blue Eyes
Pinball Wizard
Then I was joined by the landlord on bass for Boris the Spider. This is his wife's favourite song. It went down a storm. I never got on later for the other tracks I was planning to do. I have to say that I thought I played and sang very well.
TTFN Badger off to do something else

Punchbowl 11/5/06 - Boris awakes!

12/5/05
Morning readers (optimist I am)
Last night was good on the playing front. I cocked up two songs because I did not practice, I have hardly picked up my guitar for two weeks at least.
Set list
Don't Hurt yourself
Pinball Wizard
Wish you were here.Wish you were here was a new one for me. I have been playing it for a long time, but this was the first public outing I had. It was received well. In fact one guy said it was the best song of the evening. The song, not my performance of it I suspect he meant.The landlord has requested Boris the spider, so that will be next weeks challenge. He plays bass so I get to play with some one else.

GW Fest was brill. Not only did I meet old friends, but the music was great and they raised shed loads of cash for a great cause. Well done to all who organised and performed.  Happy birthday to me!  I have nothing else to add. I am not worthy!  Badger

Aussie Floyd

The Aussie Floyd were excellent There was one muppet in the audience who ruined the intro to RUN LIKE HELL, but that was all. Opened with Dark Side in its entirety, then played various tracks from their (the real Floyds) history. Lights and effects were also spot on. I highly recommend this band if you like Floyd. Badger

Great Western, Warwick 25/4/06

Well readers The pub ran out of Guinness. Bugger! I did drink a bit and the draft of the Irish is upon me as I write!
Three songs, I was going to do a couple of newies but there was no music stand so
Pinball Wizard (they still like it)
Don't Hurt Yourselves
Behind Blue Eyes My vocal technique, i.e. using the microphone was a lot better that past sessions. New guitar worked and played well and was played by others.
A work mate played for the first time and it was his own material. Excellent!
Off to see the Aussie Floyd tonight, that will be very good!
