After a longer than usual Christmas and New Year break we were pleased to head off to Cramlington Folk Club for a singers night. Apart from the snow and ice making travel difficult (with many clubs having to cancel their evenings) we had suffered a slight setback ourselves... while making hardware changes to a PC Jimmy cut his right hand index finger. Even after a fortnight it hadn't fully healed, but we decided that we just had to get on with things and get back to playing!
As always Keith got the night underway shortly after 8:00 pm, and there was a good crop of performers including acts that we had either not seen before (Fools Gold) and who were new to Cramlington (John Jeffrey). We were on fairly late in the first half and played 'Back Home To You' (Allan Taylor) and 'Different Dreams' (jiva), both of which had the Cramlington Choir in full swing.
There was quite an array of instruments - multiple guitars (including parlour guitars and a twin-neck 6 and 12 string Ovation), two banjos, mandolin, two double basses and harmonica.
It was a night of varied styles and genres... another grand Cramlington night.
