Hi All,
I have had a fantastic week, my mate drummer Kenny Webb and I went out on Tuesday (26th May) to an open mike night, Webby jammed with the band and I had the privilege of singing with the Mersey legend Sam Hardy and one of Keith Hubbard from the Topspots friends from his Ormskirk days guitarist Norman Petherbridge.
Wednesday daytime (27th) me and the Topspots had a great rehearsal at our guitarists Keith Hubbard's studio in Southport, make a note: should any band be considering making a CD, Keith is the guy to go to, contact Keith Hubbard, The Stable Studio, Southport. 01704 213068.
Went out in the evening to The Swan Hotel in Aughton and got up and sang with three great muso's called; The Weekend Warriors.
Thursday (28th) was a fabulous evening at MerseyCats, the proceedings started at 8pm with a set from yours truly and the Topspots and continued with wall to wall live music till midnight.
Manfred Kuhlmann of German organisation; Beat Club 66 was over for a visit, he showed us his book that he has put together about the Mersey Beat bands, with its Britania encyclopedia type contents it make very interesting reading.
Great for the lads and myself to see our old manager from way back; Dave Forshaw looking fit and well, some of his tales from his time as our manager and as a promoter are really worth listening to. I'm always telling Dave that he should write a book, he's been on the scene for so long, must have great memories.
Of to Frankfurt for a few days so, see you next week; Tatty bye!
