Long May She Sail

Hello Everybody, following the new line ups successful first gig at Ormskirk's Kick & Donkey pub, me and the Topspots had a return gig at the Ship Inn. The band last played this venue on New Years Eve and had a great time.
Situated on the banks of the Leeds & Liverpool canal at Haskayne midway between Southport and my home town Maghull, The Ship is an atmospheric old traditional inn, serving great food together with providing weekly entertainment.
Everybody and his dog turned up, our retired guitarist Keith Dodd and his wife Maja, friends Kenny, Alan, Nick and his wife, Kels wife Cathy, Tommy's friend Jackie, Marianne and Bill, Mike from Shooter, Keith's wife Ange and not forgetting my good lady; Dot. After a great days weather, the canal side pub drew a good crowd who were up and ready for a great night out.
Starting with a couple of instrumentals; Telstar followed by Apache, The Topspots were in fine form and after my usual intro (a blues guitar scat by Keith) we ripped into Mean Woman Blues, they were dancing between the tables and never stopped till last orders was gone and it was time to go home. Me and the Topspots are re booked at The Ship on Saturday 4th June, try to get along I can promise you you'll have a great night.
Be there or be square.
Ricky.
