Topic: Russ Tippins' Lost Week-end

Next month, we're letting Russ and his band out on a rare run-out away from the N.East, and hope that he doesn't get lost. If you're not familiar with the name or the music, look at him this way: there are many out there who can play guitar like Jimmy Page, and there are many who can probably sing like a young Robert Plant; Russ is one of the few who can do both, simultaneously. Okay, he does lean on the Led Zepp, but its not the only string to his bow, check out his album. He's also done good business through August in Indiana & Illinois USA.

Don't believe me, check what these guys have to say:-

Anyway, if you're in the vicinity of the venues below, and have time (and a bit money), drop in and say hello; he'll get a kick out of it, and you'll get an amazing, rocking night.

27/10 - BJ's Blues Club, Chorley, Lancs
28/10 - The Greyhound, Nottingham
29/10 - New Inn, Witney, Oxford
4/11 - Tubby's Blues, Cheltenham

When life gives you lemons; don't make lemonade.
Give back the lemons.  Why were the lemons free?  What's wrong with the lemons?
Do Not trust the lemons...

Good luck to Mr. Tippins.  I hope the crowds are favorable.
