We are always happy to get to an Allan Taylor concert, and September at the Davy Lamp Folk Cub is a regular treat as he usually opens their season.
Allan was was on top form, obviously enjoying this gig - the audience were well on board as he mixed in some of his newer songs with his earlier favourites. Eric Freeman was up to his usual antics, quipping about the performers and even suggesting that people should pass on their tips to the newlyweds (ie jiva!)... there were a few good 'uns, some laughs and a few that might not be repeatable depending on the company one is keeping.
We were given one song after the break and we sang 'Different Dreams' (jiva) - it was lovely to hear the audience joining in, and it was a pleasure to be asked by a fellow performer if would object to his adding the song to his repertoire ... no problem, Alex - we'd be delighted.
