I had a great run of gigs over the last few days. Thursday and Friday with Benn Clatworthy, Tony Ormesher and Dave Spencer were special. It was great to get to play with Benn again, he has such an awesome sound and an incredible command over, not just his instrument, but the whole room. I could listen to him for ages. Loved it.
On Saturday I was up at Zeffirelli’s (goood foood) in Ambleside with Brian Acton‘s quartet. They play a great selection of tunes and they have an ace groove. It was very different to the rest of the week’s gigs; I really enjoyed it. Having said that, I always thought spending St. Patrick’s Day with two Irishmen would’ve been a little different…
It doesn’t stop there, either. Tomorrow night I am down in Birmingham playing for the FiZZLE Free Improv nights with my brother and Mick Beck. I’m looking forward to it.
