Be careful you don't get the bug, the mechanics is only a short walk from the hallowed Turf

Re: Burnley Blues Festival
Not a hope in hell! Nearest I'll probably get to that place is a couple of afternoon beers in the Boot Inn!

Yep, I noticed, Margaret. Was a bit disappointed to find they're playing on Saturday after I've gone, as their track "Mercy Mercy Mercy" on the Colne R&B Fest compilation is a top turntable hit at WH Towers. Never mind, I'll catch up with 'em one of these days!

Re: Burnley Blues Festival
Please do, Margaret, and ask him if he could possibly fit a gig in around the central/south Manchester/Stockport area sometime!

Re: Burnley Blues Festival
Rob Livesey Band
It is only a hobby for him - he earns a living with a full time job.
He hasn't had many gigs lately because he is having an extension built on his house which is taking forever
